I just realized that igpu probably doesn't stand for integrated gpu, does it?
All i know about igpus is that they come in laptops not sure what it actually means as i don't buy laptops with anything fancy in them.

Maybe .. the mobile GPU is not suitable for mining..
no mobiles are really suitable for mining too much heat without a bunch airflow and if you are running on battery it wont last very long. For the cards specs i have a hard time believing that it will do 160 but the wiki has always proved good for me.

No, I'm not using the igpu, I am using the dedicated card, and where did I ever say I was using a laptop? But yes, I am on a Macbook Pro. CPU mining actually generates more heat than GPU. CPU mining gets me like 190F (around 90c) and gpu only heats it up to like 160F (like 75C)
and once you get that gpu pinned it will make alot more heat. try being a little less rude, makes you look like a idiot when you dont know what your talking about.

If you are using that card you are using a laptop it isnt rocket science do a little research on your card

watch that heat though minning is memory and engine intensive and a laptop isnt made to move alot of air. you can drop the mem and engine clocks and lower intensity to reduce heat but your hashing will slow down

powered would be better. they will draw power straight from power supply vs going through the CPU with nonpowered ones. electronically makes sense

the power doesnt get drawn threw your cpu.

i sell both powered and non powered and when people ask for suggestions i always tell them 4 or more power 3 and under you should be fine with non powered. if you cant get the extender to work then you have a motherboard with a hot swapable 1x port and you need to bridge 2 pins so the motherboard recognizes the x16 card as they arent set up quite the same as a 1x device. alot of motherboards also have problems using 1x to 16 risers on x16 slots. ive sold these on ebay and and never had a customer email me with a problem after i give them that advice. you can make powered out of non powered and if you do i would attach both the + and - to the molex as current flows from the - to the + so just having + on the molex isnt really doing anything but bringing the current into the psu after it goes threw the gpu. Still drawing power threw the motherboard.

always did for me too but today was the worst i went to sell ltc to btc at .0227 instead it sold them for .0204 the confirm said the price i wanted but sold it all when i was sposed to have waited for it to go up before i sold. last 2 times it happened this week it was small amounts but 50 x .0023 short today made quite a difference in the end value. Still trying to get the support email if anyone has it.

They can try to regulate it but there is no way for them to shut down a system spread across all the countries in the world. If they try it would be yet another failure like the civil war on drugs and spending reform.
