Ok, here is your straightforward guide since you're too lazy to look.

1/. Setup up your local ETH node to get your payment address:

Or setup an online wallet:

2/. Install the latest AMD drivers:

If you have a modded Bios on your card and use Windows you will need to patch the Bios signature check:

3/. Install the latest AMD APP-SDK OpenCL Developer kit:

4/. Setup Claymore Dual miner:

guide is completely wrong




FIRST OF ALL :

Remove the heatsink of your gpu and clean it from the shitty thermal compount the manufacturer putted it on (dont worry about warranty the same you are gonna void it in next steps)

then  grab a stick comfortable enough and a HUGE METAL PIERCER SCREW

screw the  stick in the middle of the gpu core

Congrats you got a gpu miner pick axe.

Profit

Enjoy
