Could someone please tell me how to use cudaMiner?
Right now I am mining at 380-480 MH/s. I would like to use my Nvidia card as well Cheesy. I downloaded it but i don't understand how it works so I would appriciate it if someone could make a tutorial about it.
Thanks.

And one more thing. At home page it says ''11000 khash/s on a Intel i7 2600k Cpu'' . Well i have the same Cpu : Intel i7 2600k 3.4ghz 8 core(and it does not work at that rate,may i know why)
My graphic card is a Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 , is it good?

You could also try ccminer .

You may not have been using all CPU cores to mine with. Mining with a CPU is possible but not profitable after electricity costs in most cases. If the difficulty drops it would be more viable. I believe you set the number of cores with the -t option.

Nvidia cards are not great for mining, no. A comparable ATI card will perform over 4 times faster judging by the stated speeds.

I do not cuda or cpu mine so I can not be of much more help, sorry. You may want to check into the other mining pool which supports HYPER (I think it only pays out BTC though), CPU/Nvidia mining may be more profitable there.
All of my cards are nVidia, and they mine quite well, despite Ignatius' comments. Wink  However, Ignatius is very correct about CPU mining, and anything older than the 700 series GTX cards may not do so well (so no, a 500-series card is not very great).  The best place to get the latest version of CCminer is from the CUDAmining website, http://cudamining.cc/url/releases  There are also some tutorials there (CCminer is actually much easier to use than most miners geared for AMD cards).  Also, the main CUDAmining thread is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=167229.0  I also strongly recommend aiming your nVidia card(s) at any X-based coin or pool (X11, X13, etc) as they perform very well on those algorithms (also amazing with the M7 algorithm, using DJM's latest version of CCminer).

On a side note, the latest 900-series GTX cards outperform equivalent AMD cards in hashpower, and use about a quarter of the electricity.  Wink
