Not to raise the dead here, but I just got into the mining game and I'm practicing on Ducknote. I have a Core i7 860, 2gb GTX 660, eight gb DDR 3 and I'm using tsiv's CCMiner fork. I'm not even getting khash/s. Can someone take pity on a novice and help?

I don't know much on the issue, but just found the post https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7539544.
The person get 120 hashes per sec with his GTX 660.

What hashrate do you get exactly?

It jumps between 190 h/s and about 60-70 h/s. While I was (briefly) minding Ducknote earlier, it averaged out to 80 h/s. I don't know if it's my equipment setup or the specific kind of algorithm I was mining, but according to other sources I've been perusing for the last week (none of which I have to hand, unfortunately), I should be getting in the 120-125 kh/s range with this GPU.

I know NVidia isn't ideal for GPU mining, but for the moment it's all I've got.

there must be something wrong with my card, or something else. i have a gtx 660 sli setup and im only getting around 10-12 KH/s at best using cudaminer. could you post you config? also how much could you get your 590 up to?(might make Another miner with a 590 i have laying around)

Kind Regards Pesoen

for one thing i think nvidia cards are not good for mining, and second i think mining in sli or crossfire mode is not good either . just my thoughts .

598m/hash on my AMD 7950 for £240

My gaming rig. Just bought another for mining

Long term project and also have it for gaming

Cool, nice M/hash !

Personally I get around 550 Mhash from my 7950 from Gigabyte overclocked at 1120 Mhz.

Got it for 289$CA when it was on sale like 2 month ago so it has probably paid for itself now if you account the energy used have been reused to heat my loft ;0)

AND GAMING WITH 7950 IS AWESOME

130 MH/s on a Gtx 680.
AMD cards are a lot more suited for mining. Grin

What about a gigabyte GTX 660 Ti OC?

Hey Ferret, Switch over to GUIminer using Open CL with no flags used and advise what rate you are getting on the 660.

I finally got it going. I'm getting a whopping 4.32Mhps now. And.... my desktop is moving horribly slooooowwwww!

Edit: 6.090M/6.041Mh/s

I'm having trouble figuring out how to get it going under Fedora 18. I can compile cgminer to get cpu stuff going, but I can't really find a good guide to get Nvidia stuff going.

See, that's the problem. From what I understand, your GTX580 is about on par with my GTX660. Annnd you're getting a hashrate 8 times faster than mine. I must be doing something wrong.

You could try a cuda miner and a few flags, but in all honesty all Nvidia cards are low. I have a 580 and its only pulling 145.

Side note, there is a reason the versions of cards lower that the X7X model are not usually listed in hardware comparison. For most of them the power/heat to hashrate is not worth the attempt.

I have a fairly good graphics card, but for some reason the hash rate I've gotten in the miner I use (50Miner) seems extremely low considering that the last generation of this card (GTX560) has something like a 100 MH/s hash rate. What I've been getting is around 20 MH/s. Am I doing something wrong? I think one cent gained over three hours is a bit below average. =.=

In case you missed it, I'm using a 2GB Nvidia GTX660 card.
