Hi friends,

Anyone use your Desktop computer for mining?
I use my Desktop computer with 2 470s & 2 570s for mining, and use one of them as my primary display card.
When I use Firefox browzer for browzing, the system sometimes collapses the Firefox due to system resources(e.g. RAMs)

How can I reserve some system resources for my computer daily jobs?
It made me trouble reset the mining computer in order to do normal daily jobs!

If you want to mine while using the computer at the same time you need to use the onboard video. Most motherboard have a built in DVI connector there. Plug your monitor there. If you don’t have this you can only mine on the other 3 while you are using it.

Also increase your virtual memory in windows to like 16Gb or 24GB if it’s not enough. If this doesn’t work then just disable the GPU that is the main GPU when computer is in use and just reenable it whenever you don’t use the computer. All you do is push 1 key in phoenixminer and claymore to do so.

Thank you your sharing! I would try to increase virtual memory first!
