Pretense you say you're an early adopter but why is this your first post in the forum??
Why have you waited more than 2 years to post a so well elaborated post as this one?
Good point.Why have you waited more than 2 years to post a so well elaborated post as this one?
Your profile says you registered in the forum today !! Why did you took so long? What happened today?
Remember, we're talking MILLIONS of dollars, here.
Odd to be some other person - a moderator wow! - trying to answer some simple questions made to a fellow member.

Still waiting for these 2 answers.

I'm a bit dumb!!! How can CPU mining cost electricity, if someone HAS TO have the CPU always on for professional purposes???
Do you drive a car? Does your car use the same quantity of fuel when traveling at 90MPH when sitting idle at a stop light? I thought so...Absolutely wrong your argument! but somewhat fair to a nintendo player, not to a IT tech.
Some more hard shots ??
If you don't understand that a CPU uses power to shift it's registers during instruction parsing, and the power to maintain a non-changing charge is lower than the power required to flip it from 1 to 0, or 0 to 1, as well as modern chip enhancements like HALT instructions and C states which turn off whole chip sections if there is little work to do, then you will never understand why a CPU uses it's nominal electricity cost at full power and only a residual cost while not used (such as a dumb user staring at the screen and doing nothing).
Good luck.
Look at the thread subject: Low-Impact Mining? (10-20% CPU)
Don't panic now! You were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, lol.
Even though I keep your concerns about CPU power consumption at 10-20%..

I am doing this and use two different profiles for pure mining and mining while gaming respectively.
I'm using the phoenix miner with the phatk kernel and setting the AGGRESSION parameter to 3 I can fluently play any of my games on my HD6850 and still get about 100-110 MHashes/s.
For pure mining I set AGGRESSION to 16 which after trying differing settings yields the most (about 262) MHashes/s for me.
As for CPU mining, I let the ufasoft miner run at 100% and low priority and got no problems so far (and an additional 13 MHashes/s while my PC is otherwise idle).

Do you pay for electricity? If you do, the CPU mining may be costing you money.

Loved a clue about it wise guy....................................
