Again sorry, i have tried looking for it. Can some one explain what the options do, some i understand, Also what frequency have people found to be a reliable max. im currently running at 870. I get its "old" tech, but i feel learning isn't just to follow the herd without knowing why.
baud=115200 - assume its communication speed from pc to gridseed.
freq=870 - frequency the miner runs at
chips=5 - number of chips to use (without it used all available ??)
modules=1 ?
usefifo=0 ?
btc=16 ? believe to be related to difficulty limit?
info in-case anyone is interested or find it useful, doesn't run when freq=800 or some other settings but changing it by 10 can get it running.

Ok thanks. That is one of the guides I've followed. And I'll have a sort through the other one.
How about this one below did you follow this guide? if not check it first you will see the other mining software setup to mine sha256 algo or scrypt. - [GUIDE] GridSeed 5-Chip USB, Blade & Black Miner Support/Tuning
- How to Mine on Gridseed 5-chip GC3355 ASIC

If this is for learning purposes why not?
There is an official guide for gridseed GC3355 to setup this miner.
Check this [GUIDE] GridSeed GC3355 5 Chip Setup/power/windows/linux/rpi by UnicornHasher
Let's hope it still works with low difficulty coins. Check this https://miningpoolstats.stream/ and find the coins with low diff in sha256 algo/scrypt.

Oh ok. I've had it a while. So on luck sending it back. I guess it's too old for script too? Just been looking at a new coin and learning my way. First burnt finger! Hope not 1st of many.
So 2pac ok? Or newpac if I can get my hands on one lol.

You can get a USB stick miner that will mine much faster, use less power, and cost less.
The gridseeds use a ridiculously high amount of power since they are so old and out of date.
Even when they first came out years ago, they used too much power compared to anything else SHA256 mining.
If you just bought it, then return it ASAP, the seller took advantage of you selling you old crap.

Hi, and sorry for what must be a simple question to most here. butas a newbie i want to mine some sha256 coins using a cheap gridseed gc3355.
I know its not profitable for bitcoin, but its more for learning that earning. yet i cant find a miner software that mines at the 11gh/s as stated, im at 7.5! i guessing its allowing for dual mining when i want to do single sha256.
i can find lots that are aimed to script only. the only one i can seem to work well is cgminer-3-8-5-gridseed-windows which is dual sha256/script but only able to get upto 7.5gh/s.
any help please to get mining at a 11gh/s on sha256. ideally a link to mining software would be great.
cheer
