Topic: KH vs MH vs GH (Read 29653 times)
The confusion is probably because it's 1000x slower to mine litecoin than bitcoin. So in general if your GPU can calculate 600MH/s for bitcoin, it can only calculate 600KH/s for litecoin. People will assume that you can read their minds and just state a value in KH/s or MH/s without saying which coin.

Case is important
M=Mega (1,000,000)
m=milli (.001)
M=Mega (1,000,000)
m=milli (.001)
To make things confusing kilo (k = 1000) is lowercase, when it would make more sense to be uppercase.
Edit: as defined in the International System of Units
If it helps you to remember, everything below Mega is lowercase.
Case is important
M=Mega (1,000,000)
m=milli (.001)
M=Mega (1,000,000)
m=milli (.001)
Ok that clears it up.
Thanks

LTC - Kh/s
BTC - Gh/s
Yes it does go KH/s < MH/s < GH/s < TH/s.
Most CPUs mined in the KH/s range for BTC. GPUs and FPGAs were in the MH/s range. Now, ASICs are measured in the GH/s. Pools and the total network are measured in the TH/s. This is all for BTC, and LTC is different.
Most GPUs will only pull a few hundred KH/s for LTC, compared to a few hundred MH/s for BTC. Lets take a 4x 7950 rig as an example. For BTC, you could get 550MH/s each card, for a total of 2200MH/s, or 2.2GH/s. For LTC, lets say you were getting 600KH/s each card, for a total of 2400KH/s, or 2.4MH/s.
Am I the only one who liked algebra and unit conversions in school?

he is referring, when people talk about 1200MH/s =1200Khash/s and this is because they are mining scrypt
sha-256 are in MH
scrypt are in KH
sha-256 are in MH
scrypt are in KH
I have two 7950s
They get me around 600 kh/s each without tweaking.
Running both in a pool I get around 5$ a day right now.
600 kh/s x 2 = 1.2 mh/s right?
And not 1200 mh/s

You're using some pretty fucked up calculators, friend.
The scale does function the same as how Bytes are measured. KH/MH/GH/TH (KB/MB/GB/TB)
1200KH/s would accumulate practically nothing, 1200MH/s would get you a few dollars-worth per day.

Can someone pour some clarity on this situation?
When people quote gH/s do they really mean mH/s?
Doesn't the scale go Kilo Mega Giga
IE if I have 2x600 kH/s... that is equal to 1.2 mH/s and not 1200 mH/s
Most of the only calculators ask for your MH/s but say you are expected to make
and average of 0$ a day at 1.2 mH/s and $4.xx if its 1200 mH/s.. when 1200 kH/s gets you $4.xx
