I believe that is the codename for the chip of the GPU.  If you use it you will be mining with gpu.

Have you tried it?

If You have time machine and can send yourself back in the time at the date shown in GUIMiner title, You could earn something. But now, if You are not paying extra power supply Graphics Card would spend, You could try Cointellect. Here is my referral link (anyhow you need referral number to sign-up): http://cointellect.com/?code=e4ea1e3e I would not use their software, but sgminer instead http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/sgminer-download/ and would use directions in downloads section for setting up "ASIC miners":
Following .bat file inside folder where You unpacked sgminer should start mining at Cointellect for You when You put Your cointellect licence code shown when You sign-up in form xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx :
Code:
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
sgminer -k zuikkis -o stratum+tcp://66.55.92.73:8000 -p x -u cointellect_licence_code_without_dashes -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --lookup-gap 2 --shaders 2560
Happy mining.

EDIT: removed dot from link.

You're wasting your time if you try to mine with your GPU. As others have said, if you were trying to do this a few years ago, it would have made sense. Now, you'll be losing more money on electricity than generating coins. You're too late to the party, sadly. Tongue

For the most part true. I use mine to mine coins with low diff that I like and don't mine running my gpu rigs on it. this gets me coins that i want without spending my btc on them.

Even then it is inefficient.  Asics in straight scrypt make it where you have to use a different algo for GPU's.
