The best way to mine with a gtx 460 is to not mine at all Tongue

With the price you pay for a 460 you can get an ATI card that will kick its ass.


It's better than CPU mining. I'm pulling about 61Mhash while browsing with FF and listening to music.

Care to suggest an AMD card for me?

make it above-normal process priority

That seemed to do the trick. Thanks.

Best I've found is puddinpop's rpc-cuda.exe

Phoenix was about 10 megahashes per second slower
That's what I'm using, through GUIminer. I'm just confused as to why it's only running at 8Mhash, when the GPU is only under 12% load.

Tried those two tags; it was up to 62.4 for a bit, but now it's back down to 16. Nothing else should be using GPU except for basic display, and EVGA precision still only shows ~25% usage.

Now it's down to 6 :/

I had an MSI Hawk:
core: 980Mhz
mem: lowest possible(don't remember)
CoreV = + 100
AuxV = + 30

used -v -w 256 with poclbm-mod, ~67Mhash/s

It' not an efficient miner though.

What sort of flags should I use to mine with my GTX 460? EVGA precision tuner is showing  only 25% GPU usage, which lines up with the 16 Mhash I'm getting. I'd like to run it maxed when I'm not at the computer.
