I'm currently using a Nvidia GTX 660 GPU and i have 16GB of ram and Intel i7 3770 CPU
And was wondering what settings i should input on my cudaminer to get higher than 60khash/s.
I was getting 140~khash/s yesterday but now it dropped to 60..
Do i need to overclock my Core and Memory, is that going to help?
If yes, how much should i overclock with MSI Overburner.
(I'm currently using the basic line:
cudaminer.exe -o stratum+tcp*website* -O *username*.*password*)

Thanks in advance for help.

I would first test on another pool if the hash remains low there you could have issues, here are some settings for reference, but if the hash rate has dropped in half the card could be damaged as well:

If felt like the 130khash was random because i got a peak of 4000khash when i overclock my core and memory.
Could that have damaged my GPU?
Also would taking off my GPU and reinstalling it after it cools off fix any kind of problem it has?
What kind of damages could it possibly have taken.
The reason why i didnt use that website settings is because i have 16gb of ram and i'm not sure if that could help.

Hey there OP I run a GTS 450 and get 70Kh/s on stock settings. It's a coincidence that I just overclocked my card for the first time and you're here  Smiley I increased core clock ~17%. From 810Mhz to 950 Mhz, which jacked up my Kh/s to 80. Also tried on 970Mhz which got me about 970Kh/s but I love my card so sticking to 950Mhz.

What brand is your card btw?

Is there a way to check, on MSI afterburner it shows MSI GTX 660 Series.
I'm not sure if thats it...

You can download this tool called GPU-Z, from that you can find out what make your GPU is.

Download and use the 12-18 version.

-d 0 -i 0 -l K5x32 -H 1

Switch to -i 1 if you want to use your computer for anything else.
