Okay I see, thank you for the information and the link. Is there any chance someone can post some examples of the ccminer 2.0 cuda .bat files. I must be making a mistake in the syntax because it continues to error. Additionally, I was wondering how to solo mine? Is it different setup for every coin type?

I have posted in other topics but I need some help. Recently started mining and not familiar exactly with the configuration. Trying to configure ccminer cuda x64 to mine dash. Not really sure how to configure and was wondering if anyone could help me. Thank you.

Re: [SXC][NSFW] Sexcoin - New Version Available for Miners & Exchanges!!

I am very new to mining but really like the concept of this project. Can someone help me get started to solo mine. I am running a Windows 10, NVidia GTX 980TI and GTX1080 FTW. Not looking to make anything at this point, only collect some coins and participate. Any help with what miner and configuration would really be great.

Thank you. Message me if you can.

I would suggest using a pool. When solo mining you either get lucky and get blocks or you dont. With a pool you get a nice constant income and dont need to worry about luck or not and with i gfx the chance is pretty low you will get lucky.

That sounds good too, however I am really kind of lost when it comes to mining and the configuration. I downloaded that multiminer and while browsing the UI I started to get popups that where malware. scanning my PC now. Any chance you could give me some suggestions or a link to a miner/tutorial for beginners.

I have the Sexcoin wallet, there is a tab for mining there, does this allow you to mine? I have been pool mining siacoin using marlin and that was fairly simple to setup.

Download multiminer from the link provided and while I was browsing through the GUI I got popup saying my computer was compromised... Looked like some type of fake virus alerts, some type of malware. Good experience for my first time trying to do this!

New to crypto mining, question on risers PCIe

I was told to check the mining support section but could not find it... hopefully this will be the correct place. Quick history, worked in IT for a long time. I wanted to start mining to get familiar with it and to produce and hold some coin. So currently mining on a 1 GPU home gaming PC ;-) waiting on a second GPU.

So questions. I am new to cryptocurrency but not to IT. I started doing some mining on my gaming PC and decided to invest in a second GPU to increase my mining. I am really doing it to get familiar with the process and to exchange/sit on some coins. I had some questions about the PCIe USB risers. It looks like they drop the x16 slot to x1, I assume this decrease in bandwidth does not impact the GPU calculations/mining in anyway, is this correct? What is a good manufacture to use if I wanted to pick up one of these risers? Does anyone make external GPU chassis with additional cooling/power?

Thank you.

Sorry very new to this but I would think you could put in a lower end graphics card to use for the GUI and the others for mining. Maybe onboard graphics or intel graphics if you have the right processor.
