Hi, I started mining at about the same time as you did. What CPU and GPU are you crunching on and what GPU are you going to get in October? Are you running at 100% or at lower percentages?

i got an old 7870 XT featuring the Tahiti LE chip, this baby is doing the hell of a job on milkyway@home for instance because of the double-precision FP speed
Hi @applepiie. I have a 7 year old Core i7 with 8 cpu's and a Nvidia GTS 450. I'm hoping to get a Radeon R9 380P 4GB that should be light years ahead of what I have at the moment. What do you have and what returns are you seeing?
*edit I run at 100% when I'm not gaming (which is probably 90% of the day 24/7)
I run an i5-7600K at 4.4GHz (4 Cores) and an Nvidia GTX 1060 3Gb. I got both of them for a decent prize and wanted to upgrade my system anyways. I ran them for the past ~20 days constantly at 100% and make now about 13.3 GRC per day, or 75 Mag.
I actually wanted to use my computer otherwise as well, but I don't have the time at the moment, since I am writing my exams about the past year and should really study instead of having fun with my computer 😅
Hehehe... feel you. Who wants to study when there's fun to be had on the computer!?
I think your 75Mag is mostly due to your GPU. Like I said, mine is ancient (7 years old) and only has 1GB of onboard RAM. I suspect system RAM also makes a difference as I see messages that projects are waiting for memory quite often. I think I will boost that too when I get the GPU in October.
