Hey /biz/.

With the launch of the new ethereum website, is it worth it to mine some ETH with their software ?

I found out that this is CPU mining and it's not worth it.
We need GPU mining, but idk how to set it.

I noticed we are running the simple AlethOne....whats that more complex looking AlethZero?

I did. How to know if it's CPU or GPU?

>> No.1131553

>>1131530
you have to run the command with the flag -G
so if you mine in a pool let's say nanopool ..

you type :

ethminer.exe -F ThePoolAdress/YourBankAdress -G

then it will load DAG file and it will starts to mine

Can you make a step by step guide, because I'm using a mac, thank you.

ITT: /biz/ness men that dont know anything about mining.

CPU mining is worthless people, current gen GPU can mine 10-20 mhash.

thats ~15.000 khash.

According to ethereum people GPU mining isnt there yet, so you'll have to standby if you want to do any serious mining.

I'm pretty sure that with a mac you can't GPU mine anyway , they have pretty weak system

I tried mining with my shitty laptop and AlethOne failed to start mining. The program needs a GPU with a least 2GBs of ram in order to actually start mining.

Save your electricity pham. It's not worth it. Is that a laptop or something? Join a pool on a machine with a decent gpu.

You want at least a couple mega hash per second otherwise you're wasting energy. Several thousand kilo hashes.

So is this a similar deal to mining for other coins where AMD knocks the shit out of Nvidia? I'm mining with a 970 and getting around 18-20mH but all the sites are recommending AMD GPUs,

It's some new virtual currency that everyone's shitting themselves over because a few months ago shit was like $1-2 a coin and now it's hovering between $9-11.
