You should mine LiteCoins since they are more profitable and you can also mine with your CPU too...
Thanks all...
What would you recommend as the best option for someone to casually mine some Bitcoins? Buy a few AMD 7950? or something else?
Best expected CPU speeds I have seen is about 2.8MH/s... My OLD GPU GTX9800 does 23.4MH/s alone... and won't kill my CPU in the process. I don't care if my GPU dies, I have three others to replace it!
(@ $125USD per BTC)
2.8MH/s = about $0.017 a day
23.4MH/s = about $0.16 a day
230MH/s = $1.64 a day
2300MH/s or 2.3GH/s = $16.45 a day
25GH/s = $168.75 a day
250GH/s = $1,687.55 a day
Until the next difficulty level, then divide that result by 8...
Then the next difficulty... Divide that by 16...
Then the next difficulty... Divide that by 32...
EG...
25MH/s = $0.17 a day = $0.005 a day, after the difficulty has increased 3x
250MH/s = $1.68 a day = $0.05 a day, after the difficulty has increased 3x
2.5GH/s = $16.87 a day = $0.53 a day, after the difficulty has increased 3x
25GH/s = $168.75 a day = $5.27 a day, after the difficulty has increased 3x
250GH/s = $1,687.55 a day = $52.73 a day, after the difficulty has increased 3x

yes you mining on just the GPU and core number 3 (the one with the tick)
to get the max out of you computer
set up 2 tabs the one youve got now as tab 1 and unselect core 3
and set up a 2nd tab for the CPU and select device as CPU and select all 4 of the cpu affinity boxes
i loled when i saw the GPU my CPU puts out that per core and its and AMD Phenom II 970

You are minig on your GPU only. Start a tab for each additional cpu in GUIminer. But yeah, you wont make a lot.
I have a older core quad I decided to put guiminer to pick up a few fractions of a bitcoin here and there. Is it doing ok?
It seems slow...

and the client uses all if the last processor...

It's probably cause it's old, but I want to be sure.
