Cryptsy is known for pump & dumps - lets rather wait for alcurEx exchange.

It says you can CPU mine in the wallet (I know, won't get much) but I have a GPU mining to a pool, can I cpu to the pool also? If so what do I type in the console?

good question

[PeterVenter]

I got an idea when the block rewards descend to 1000/block the devs should reset the nfactor back to 5 and leave it there untill asics are developed for scrypt-jane. Right now no scrypt-ASIC miners are able to hash this coin so the only thing that the nfactor is doing now is causing us to use more energy and produce more heat

actually its bringing CPU mining closer to GPU mining. Im hoping and thinking when this thing hits a higher n factor, we will have a huge influx of CPU miners that can actually make a little coin. And this will be great for the community. /crosses fingers

I dont think cpu mining would help us, we would just be getting attention from botnets

botnet are not efficient, because when CPU usage is very high with fans spinning like mad, people will find out why.
botnet excel at DDoS. Botnet owners makes lots of money by renting out their botnets to someone for DDoS purpose.

n factor just kicks in

yep, my hashrate dropped by approx 1/2 and i am getting hardware errors.

same as ultracoin
increase the tc to 16384,others remain the same and everything will be fine

tips appreciated

+1 on this one.
Btw people, set intensity to 11 with the new nfactor. you get roughly 80Mhash on an 280X. No hw errors.
As stated on OP page.

This only gives me roughly 30mhash on I12, vs 80 on I11/thread concurrency 8192

Dont have 7870 so not sure.
This is my entire settings for 280X/7970 though

What do you mean increase, i was running 27400 before
I am running 290x
I was getting about 407kh/s per card before, now i am struggling to go over 207

And you get accepted shares?
Hmm...
Anyone else getting only half with I12?

Im only getting 7khash on that setting

It says 290x just above your post.

I managed to get about 203 withouth HW errors with the commands from digitalixz's post

BTW why the diff so damn high when the n factor kills in

you mean 80khash right?

Yeah, sorry had an mixup.

However as stated above people seem to get it to 150 by keeping Intensity but adjusting threads, im not able to yet though...

[mattbigblue]

Not sure why diff stay so high after n-factor kicked in
