I was mining litecoins earlier today no problem at max hashrate for my gpu. I stopped the program to modify my gpu settings and when I turned on cgminer I was getting a very low hashrate (35). My gpu is capable of like 290 so I know theres something wrong. What infos could I provide you with to helpp diagnose this problem?

There seems to be so many wallets and programs and pools I don't know what is best. Any suggestions on how to invest in a small amount of litecoins and also how to start mining them?

Does this calculator assume you're in a pool or doing it by yourself?

I like powerful computers to game on so I want to have MorePower! My fascination with computing power has led to me to this forum in hopes of learning how to use my gaming pc to mine bitcoins. Here is my rig:

use http://dustcoin.com/mining to calculate profits.

You will need to know the cost of your electricity and your hashrate, which you will find by simply starting mining Cheesy

Under the price section of this calculator, is that how much you have to spend to get a spot on the pool? Like if the BTC is 1.0000 like bitcoin up top is, does that mean you'd have to give the market price of a bit coin to the company for them to allow you into their pool?

If this is the case, how can the lower companies offer such a low cost to get in like 0.00008397 from lxcoin? Like why would someone pay the full market price of a bitcoin for the bitcoin pool offering instead of just going with a lower cost site like lxcoin or some similar site?

Below is my gaming rig I already own. I'm wondering how much money you think I could make mining on it pool mining? I don't know how to get into a pool mining situation but would be curious if you have some ideas. If you don't have to interact with the computer while it is mining, I could leave my computer mining unattended while sleeping (8-10 hours), I could run it while using the computer (6 hours per day). I game for about 2 hours per day and play online poker for a couple hours.

I've read maybe 10 articles from the stickies and I'm just getting my feet wet in this stuff. So I'm not sure how you find a pool.
