The power consumption of the GPUs can be checked in the many review sites, such Anandtech, TechPowerUp, etc. Always check what consumption they say, "Total system" or "just GPU".

Re: Huge numbers of rejected shares on Linux with modern GPUs.

Yes, I am getting ~1.2GHash/s according to my miner. I really don't know how much processing power would be required to do solo mining, and that is why I asked. Thank you for clarifying this. Therefore, I made the right decision to join a mining pool.

Now, will anyone help me with my real problem, the high number of rejected shares? I really don't want to waste electricity and the life of my GPUs on bitcoin mining if 40% of my shares get rejected.

Thank you in advance!

I see a increase on the rejected count when I'm downloading torrent (at full capacity of my crappy conection) and mining at the same time, but I'm getting only 300Mhash/s (1 HD5850).

I made it. I plugged the main monitor to the HD3200 as the main display in Windows, then plug another monitor to HD4670 and extend the desktop to this display. Doing this, now I can use the 4670 for mining without any lag in the desktop.
grue thanks for your help!

Use a PCIE card mining & IGP

Hi guys. I have a HD4670 in my Asus M3A78EM, it has a HD3200 IGP. I will change the 4670 for a 5850, but I need use the IGP for Windows because the mining kills the GPU of the 4670.
I've tried the "Surround View" option in the BIOS, and GPUZ detects both graphic cards. But GPU Caps only detects OpenCL in the 4670 if that card is used as primary card, if I plug the monitor in the IGP it works but I don't have OpenCL acceleration.
Any ideas? I have Catalyst 10.10 with ATI Stream 2.2 included in.

PD: sorry for my crappy English  Grin
