Hey,
Just wondering how many CPU threads you guys are using to mine monero without causing impact to GPU mining operations? Currently have mine set at 2 but was thinking it can probably do 3 using G4560.
Thanks
It depends on what Client you are using to GPU mine. EWBF is very light on the CPU so you could probably do 3 threads without noticing a difference in the GPU hashrate.
If you are using Claymore to mine a Ethash COIN; I wouldn't use more than 2: if dual mining with Claymore I wouldn't use more than 1.
With a weaker CPU I wouldn't cpu mine at all while dual mining with Claymore.
OK thanks for the advice, i'll apply as necessary.
One more thing, is it just me or do the 1070s refuse to draw more than 150W power even when the power limit is increased? Obviously it works upping the powerlimit in windows but it doesnt seem to work for me in linux, only on the reduction.
Cheers
