1) you will not get anywhere near your goal.

2) It's a one off download for your wallet, after that it will only take a few minutes.


...My brother has a 560Ti, no clocks, no flags and is getting 87mhash/s, yours seems a bit slow (what does that flag do you have?)

for the love of bitcoin take the untick the CPU Affinity boxes they slow down the GPU speed and cause stales
the -0.015 flag means its will take a 0.015 secound break every so often (cant remember how often)

also try stopping the miner then adding the -v flag sometimes speed things up nicely

- so you think that no way to reach my goal should I leave the whole thing ?

-without flag i get 72 Mahsh/s, but that made my PC very slow

You could always lower your goals, or look into mining Litecoins or another alt coin.

ok here we go :

but in that case it's now using 98% of my GPU how can i reduce it, another thing with that rate how much time do I need to reach my goal ?

you can check here for predicted earnings https://bitclockers.com/calc

I think you still want Core 0 ticked in CPU affinity.

ok to reduce the amount of GPU it uses GUIminer works a bit backward this way but change the flag -f60 (this is standerd) to -f50 so the system and the card get 50% each the higher the number the more the system gets but -f60 is weird on most systems i manage happily with a -f10

also depending on which pool you use id say around 1-2 months (nvidia really dosnt do mining well)

not True as if you want to set up CPU mining use a different tab and a CPU miner if you use a CPU and GPU miner you get more stales and most likely slows down the GPU
