alttin Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Hey, any mincoin miners here using VirCurPool? I just got set up with them today here http://mnc.vircurpool.com/index.php?page=gettingstarted and started mining my meager kHs contribution. My first time veritably mining a cryptocoin, hooray! To get started, I mostly followed the instructions at http://minemincoin.com/?cat=5, except that since I'm using an nVidia GPU, I decided I'd try mining mincoin with the scrypt mining CUDAminer software linked to in the note at the top of the minemincoin guide (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=167229.0), instead of using cgminer or GUIMiner. At first I was confused about what I would need to do in order to switch the miner from litecoin to mincoin, but it seems that mostly gets worked out by the pool or by mincoin-qt. So far it looks to be running well, but I should still go back and try it with cgminer or GUIMiner to see how the hashrate compares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dualsmp Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Nvidia is still way behind when it comes to mining. AMD is still king in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
