1 BTC =111.32 USD so 111.32 for 1 bitcoin. not bad, but thats 1/2 value as when it was $232.00
what do you see on the pc when you figure out the hash and get bitcoins?
how do you know which site to use? any tips on choosing a site?
are all the programs (miners) the same?
the miner programs come from the sites themselves? not sure how this works...
The program will tell you what the card is hashing and then after a few minutes it will show up on the site that you set the miner up with.
Common mining programs to use are cgminer (personally I like it the best because you can tweak settings)
GUIMiner (fast easy setup)
50btc.com has one you can use, but I've had nothing but problems with it.
You wanna go with sites that aren't super full of users (then you get charged higher transaction fees), but not too little because it's a sign that it's newly established and who's to say they won't close up shop and take what you've mined?
technically I'm still labeled a noob here so I can't post links, and the download site is down, so stick with GUIMiner for now
