I've a question/warning regarding AMD Display Driver. The driver seems to be required for OpenCL miner but it also seems to be quite outdated and sometimes produce awful display output for firefox (only firefox which I find quite strange - see screenshot https://i.imgur.com/AgTSDba.png). Notice that part of the text is affected and part is not. Sometimes images are also affected. Switching between tabs fixes the problem until something moves. Uninstalling the driver revert the system back to normal display output but disables OCL mining. I'm running GUIMiner - v2012-12-03 on ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145 on Win7 64-bit SP1. Mainly I am just warning newcomers that this could happen but I would also appreciate some advice if someones has managed to solve this or knows how to do it. I have 2 x 7950's and had the same issue. Updated to beta amd drivers and it actually increased my mhs from ~950 mh/s to over 1G. Same overclocking settings with msi afterburner. Beta is available here http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/amdcatalyst13-5winbetadriver.aspxStill had a few problems on firefox, but followed 68B10 advice and no more artifacts!! Thanks!!! |

Not your AMD drivers. In Firefox go to Tools --> Options --> Advanced ... and uncheck the 'Use hardware acceleration when available' checkbox. It worked. Thanks! |

And in other news... it will probably be expensive and it will ' redefine CPU mining ' Can't wait to see people trying CPU mining with core that does OpenCL with out a GPU http://techreport.com/news/24749/intel-dubs-haswell-igp-iris-promises-2-3x-performance-increaseSpeculations any one? [ EDIT ] meant ' bare board mining ' not actual CPU mining.... sorry if it was confusing |

Yes [EDIT] I've a lot of CPU miners agrupated under only 1 user, cause make me easy modify settings for all in a while |

Unless all workers benefit from each other's time since last contribution made, in which case the result would be the same. |

Unless all workers benefit from each other's time since last contribution made, in which case the result would be the same. Yep, I'm pretty sure all workers are scored cumulatively. So all your workers are contributing to the same pool of work, so it doesn't matter whether you have one worker with 10 machines attached, or 10 workers with 1 machine attached, you should get essentially the same payout regardless. |

Yes, it'll still be slow, too slow to be worth much. My 4 year old mobile 5730 does 60mh/s, I doubt this new cpu/gpu will match that. 3x faster than slow is still slow  |

Bah, the 105 right now is just a temporarily price, people with huge loads of BTC is probably rushing them over to MTGOX ant BTC-E. As soon as they are cleared they will dump!

Good thing the US stock markets are doing well today. I don't think I could handle a down day and a 10 hour block.

Yeah... And, there is something strange with graphs. On my 'your reward' graph I see a data point for 28.04.2013, then 29.04.2013 and the next one is... 30. 05.2013. This is visible in both 'daily' and '7 day average' plots. Strange... Same anomaly affects the system total reward graph. Oh, and since it is my first post in this thread, saying hello to fellow miners and big kudos to Slush. The way you handled recent events was simply outstanding. |
