Anyone having luck with solo CPU mining? I've been at it for a couple of weeks using an i7 6700k, but have nothing to show for it.
Now as the GPU miners are out there the CPU mining is obsolete, further more solo mining. Please join a pool at least if you don't have GPUs to mine with.
I'm using the GPUs, just wanted to know if there was even a chance of getting something with a CPU (I can't think of what else to do with the CPU cycles). Maybe I should join a CPU pool too.

After days of debug i found the solution with this motherboard. Drop Windows 10 with this board and install Windows 7. All your GPU will be recognised in no time.
Forget about windows 10. Not to mention i have better performance with windows 7.
A noticable hash rate difference in all your GPUs? What percentage increase did you see with w7?
Maybe the issue was with my system but with 6GPU i was running neoscrypt at around 7200 on windows 10 and 7800 on windows 7
Thanks. I'm getting about 8000 on win10 with 6x1070ti, but had to disable some CPU-intensive stuff to get there.

Yes, Windows 10 , version 1709, Jan 2018 Cumulative Update.
I had nothing but problems with 1709 on the H81. Had to reinstall 1703 to overcome code 12 DMA conflicts. Maybe I'll take a system snapshot and try updating again - don't like running all this unsigned code on an unpatched OS.

Re: 👽 [ANN][BIS]Bismuth - New Language, Free DAPPs, Cryptopia, HEAT
is there a way to mine this at low intensity so it doesnt make my monitor lag? i tried setting lowest intensity but it doesnt seem to help. im able to do this with other coins.
Have you tried the http://bis-pool.net/ miner? It usually only uses a few % on the CPU, so it might run better in the background. If it still doesn't run OK, you could increase "delay_between_batches" (measured in ms) in the config file
oh wow - much better; I can actually get some work done at the same time and the hash rate is higher - thanks!

When I use bismuth GPU miner my PC gets soooooo slow (not happening this with other coin miners). I have CPU i7 6700k and 16 gb RAM at 3200 so this is not pc problem. I think bismuth miner is using CPU resources and I don't want to mine using CPU, only GPU, Anyway to solve this?
+1 - it really isn't possible to background GPU mine, even with an intensity of 50% (-i 50)
