Hi all, new to the forum.
Been mining for a while, several coins. We'll see how it goes, trying to build a portfolio in several currencies.
Using a few AMD GPU's, after first testing a little with a couple of Nvidia GPU's. I guess a lot of others have done like me, cause some AMD cards are getting hard to get a hold of. Wink

Anyways, just a first post to get started in the forums.

Yes you'll be much better off with ATI/AMD GPUs, even though cudaMiner is making progress for nVidia, it's still about half as fast for the same power (electricity).

Welcome to the mining world Smiley

Hmm they are different I think. Getting around 650KH/s from Gigabyte R9 280X (scrypt). Some get close to 800, some just around 550. Getting a high hashrate is easy, but making sure they're valid is something else.
