Who is burst support in this topic ?
How to calculate Hdd  reward without cpu or gpu mining


Why gpu will speed up mining ?
Why need to use cpu and gpu mining if make hdd mining ?

I think this mining need to eat up all hdd cpu gpu .... computer will be very slow


I think no useful mine this coin .. can use gpu and cpu to mine other coins similar xmr is more better and profitable

I think there's a slight misunderstanding. Your "hashrate" is the amount of "plots" you make. Plots are just files which use up your hdd space. In order to "mine" with these plots however, they must be read using either a cpu or a gpu. Due to the fact that burst uses deadlines to pick a block winner, the faster you can read your plots, the better your chance of being able to read all of them and win the block. For example you have a 10 second deadline, but it takes you 20 seconds to read all your plots. Before you get to that 10 second deadline, someone could find a 15 second deadline and win the block. There's then nothing you can do, you had a better deadline, but you didn't submit it to the network in time.

This is why it's good to use a gpu to speed up mining Cheesy Anyway, here's a calculator: http://burstcoin.biz/calculator

Never thought of it that way.   Emm.   Guess im gonna be buying a new GPU.  What would you recommend?

I think the money would be better spent on more harddisc space. As long as you are going USB3 or direct SATA, a decent computer should be able to get through the drives in not much time. I am through my roughly 20TB on each box in a minute or less, even using the reference java client. I have one java miner running for each drive, so they run in parrallel and get eaten quite fast.



Well no need for a GPU.   I just used my integrated.   On the intelIi am pulling over 100MB/s compared to 30MB/s and on the radeon R5 I am up to over 60MBs up from 15-20MBs  running 6TB in under 22 secs now instead of 125 secs.

Thanks Luxe im using the miner you posted with the GPU support.
