hi
it seems that there is some tweaking in cuda to make it work really faster on this.


Such as?

hi

yes there will be enough gpu to consider solomining
so anyone can help on how to set up all this?

thanks
Not necessarily true. While difficulty has certainly increased, bitcoin price has also increased quite a bit. My mining rigs are still quite profitable, even compared to what I was getting last year. It's more than enough to pay electricity and then some rent.


Back on topic, why solo mine on GPUs? If you had an ASIC, I'd say go for it, or an FPGA farm at that, but unless you've got 20+ GPUs, it's not worth it to solo mine. You'll get a much higher payout from pooled mining, and consistent too, assuming you want to get paid more than once every 2 months on average.

Yeah your AMD cards can still make money but hes using nvidia cards with cuda, which are much slower.

Solo mining will take you years, use a pool (I recommend 50BCT who pay daily), and use AMD cards!

Hi, unless you get free electricty you're probably going to not make money :/

hi guys,

i m planning to make build a cluster of cpu/gpu cuda and i would like to know wich software will be the best for solomining and what is the best os to have the best hashing speed?

thanks
