If you really want Litecoin, your best bet would be to mine Ethereum which is currently the highest profitable coin to GPU mine and then exchange your proceeds to Litecoin. As YIz mentioned, trying to GPU mine Litecoin at this stage is pointless.

There are several other coins are also much more profitable to GPU mine than LTC and you can find out here what would be the best for your GPU: https://whattomine.com/coins

Hello again,

my rig is working now. With much help from this forum.. Right now, it is only one RX 470 Nitro, but will be more soon. I did some successful mining on minergate already, with Claymore. That worked fine. But i really want to mine Litecoin. Witch Software do i have to use on Windows 7. I tried out CGMiner 3.7.2. I thought it is looking good. But when i checked my account on litecoinpool, there is always 0 KH/s and 100% invalid shares.

These are my settings. Can somebody help me, to bring me on track to mine litecoins. I really don´t know how to setup this for my RX 470.

Mining litecoin on a GPU is useless, don't even try. go for GPU coins such as Zcash or Monero.
