How to mine Grin

To mine, you need:

- a recent CPU (with AVX2)
- preferably also a good graphics card (a GPU) with at least 5.5GB of fast RAM
- some skills with linux. Windows support is upcoming - look for GrinGoldMiner which has both an open source and a Pro version.

Grin v0.5 Step by Step Miner Guide on Ubuntu


Windows
* GrinGoldMiner

Miner supports all AMD and NVIDIA 8GB cards. RTX 8GB cards need Linux or Windows7 at the moment because Windows reserves too much memory on those cards (should be resolved soon)

RTX 2080 and RTX 2080Ti are fastest, OpenCL code for AMD cards is being optimized. Cheap Celeron CPU is not recommended for many cards on the system.
