Heyy there

I am wondering how people are getting sooooo many hashes, i dont understand how one can get GH/s when i get 750kh/s with a 980ti
which of course is nothing against AMD competition, but still , its a really really modern and fast GPU.
And many are saying they get 100Mh/s with a decent CPU, i got an excellent monster cpu that is cooled like a water loving shark beast

I use litecoin mining, and the scrypt mining algo , so that might be why the hash rates are so low, but as far as i know scrypt isnt thaaaat hard at the moment, BitCoin is much harder as people say.

So whats the magic behind big hash rates  ? Special gear ? Diffrent setups ? 10 GPU's ?

Also the second question is how are people getting sooo high hashrates , like 100Mh/s with day to day hardware


Day's of CPU/GPU are over.  Do the math and most likely you would run at a cost that is more then you make.

Look at asics they are much more efficient, and the reason you are seeing such high specs on BTC mining.

To answer all your questions easily, nowadays special external hard wares are used for mining that are built for the soul purpose of mining only and that's why they have GH/s and up instead of what your getting from your GPU and CPU which for a fact , mining with those has long been no longer profitable as you really won't make any thing in the long run with the current difficulty of mining ... Depending on your budget, there are some cheap usb miners out there all the way to the Big ang costly Antminers which are also happen to be one of the best for mining at the moment

Thats because GPU and CPU is absolutely improper hardware to mine Bitcoin. You need dedicated ASIC that will return thousands of times more hashrate for less power.

Hmm, i can get over 40,000 khhashs in the benchmark
but when i put it to work online, all the hashes are invalid by CPU, so i guess i gotta stick to 700
