Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX]
hey,
am thinking of replacing my 280x cards with 750ti GPU's. There would be six GTX 750 ti GPU's on my Asrock H81 board with 8GB RAM.
Question: Can i keep my Haswell Celeron G1820 CPU to run it, or do i need to upgrade to something beefier with more cores?

The RAM doesn't matter that much, it's the hardcoded CPU assist that matters. So if you want full performance, don't save on the CPU. I run 6 x 750ti with 8gb & celeron g1610 never had an issue with performance, it hasn't stopped my cards hashing at full speed....ever.
Windows 7 x64 usually between 30-55%. I did try the latest KopiemTu 1.3 but had slower hashrate than windows, I mined on simpledrk.com and found Linux gave me overall less hash/shares.
I have also recently bought 6x750Ti on H81 Pro BTC, G1820, 4Gb RAM and no issues with performance mining JPC. CPU usage: 40-60%
Main problem I have is Win8.1 x64 mining Scrypt-jane or Scrypt-n. Max 1.7 kh/s per card (yacoin) or 115 kh/s (spaincoin).
On the other side I have old SATA disk with installed WIN XP 32bit where I achieve much better results: 3.750 kh/s (yacoin) and 155 kh/s (spain) per card on the same system.
Also for x11 and JPC I'm getting lightly better hashrates (2-5%) with win xp.
Don't know why this happens, but will try windows 7 in a few days.
