Topic: How many newbies are mining? - page 23. (Read 24813 times)
I am mining at 50MH/s with a 4830.
Unfortunately I'm only mining at around 4mhash/s. Kind of useless, so I guess I'll stop when I hit 0.001 BTC. Yay, a tenth of a cent!
I'm assuming you are using only CPU mining. you might try the ufasoft miner.
easiest way to use it is to download the latest guiminer, https://github.com/downloads/Kiv/poclbm/guiminer-20110609.exe
just ignore the errors about no openCL drives found, you dont need it for CPU mining.
No, I'm apparently using my NVIDIA GT 320M with RPCminer CUDA. Not very good speeds were posted on the wiki, so I'm assuming it's going at the max speed. Kind of funny how bad a 6 month laptop is.
A laptop will never be a good miner, you know how laptops are generally shitty for playing games, it's the same limitation, you got a crappy video card compared to what you could get on a desktop computer
Also, do rpcminer-cpu as well, compare speeds, it's possible that it might be a little faster, on my Mac Mini it was... well, compared to 4way, not really sure what 4way is though...

on my old 8800gt.. cuda really sucked compared to the default miner. you may want to stop it and just try the
default which is pcolbm or whatever.

I was mining, switched over to namecoin about a week ago
i have a hard time getting excited about namecoin. after reading a few pages of that first announcement
thread i just gave up on it.

The first thing I did was figure out mining and get a miner and connect to a pool, took me a bit to figure it all out, but now I'm working on downloading the bittyblocky stuff so my wallet works
Oh great... now I can only post once a minute, except when I get the error saying I posted less than 60 seconds ago, that counts towards a post... so I have to wait another full 60 seconds before trying again, hope I don't wait 59.8 seconds... *breaks out the egg timer*
Sorry, don't mean to complain, the trolls were bad, but I think this might be worse, all the /smart/ people knew how to ignore the trolls

"I am!"
And I'm mining for posts like a dwarf!

not mining... I thought I read mining takes quite a bit of electricity costs that prohibit any real gain??? 
Depending on your electricity cost. Where I am, I get free electricity (and the PC is on 24/7 anyway, so the difference from idling to mining isn't that big).

that depends on your cost of electricity, and how many hashs you can crank out.
it costs me about USD$ 0.30/hr or USD$7.25 per day, so as long as I make at least 1 BTC I'm coming out ahead.
At 1.6GH/sec, I can make at least 2.5BTC, so it is possible to make money

i thought all the newbies were mining? there are so many newbie questions in the mining discussion board
Currently a bit over 5Ghash/sec myself

I started back on 2/16/2011, been adding ahrdware slowly since then.
up to about 1.6GH/sec right now, with 5x 6870's, 1x 5830 and the leftover cpu power for the 3 boxes those cards are in.

mining here.
it is a great way to attempt paying off a new gaming rig. if it does not work out.. oh well.
two 6950s will rock.

Have had the GUI GPU Miner up runing at about 10.8 max Mhash/s for over a day now.
Gonna get a CPU miner going if I can, and it gets at least 3Mhash/s.
Within a month I hope to buy a rig for about 300$ that will get ~250Mhash/s.

Started about a week ago, which I would have started sooner. Mining about a BTC a day at 650Mhash/s.
Mining at 290MHash/s here. Starting in early April at 2BTC/day, and stopped because the price was only $1/BTC (I actually sold 23BTC@1USB ea). Not my best decision ever.
