mine ZEC instead

7950 is being thrashed by the DAG and cant keep up anymore. What you are seeing is normal. These are not good for Eth anymore since they can only do RX 460 numbers with 3 x  the consumption.

If you're not dedicated mining Nicehash can help squeeze the most out of your mining card. Guessing you own a 2/3GB card which can't really fit ETH dag anymore, Nicehash should help a bit to find the best algo automatically or go to ZEC.

Thanks to everybody, so it's just a matter of the DAG becoming too big, right? My card is a 3Gb one, and I see about 2.3Gb of memory allocated, that's why I found that weird.
Is it the same with DCR too?

I'll definitely look into nicehash, but I was reading it could cause a bit of "hopping" between coins, is that right?
It's a shame I mined these days without a reward tho.
