intel hd card VS NVIDIA 930MX (156 MH/s)



  • hey
    i want mining with my NVIDIA how i change it ?
    now u can see its Initializing Intel(R) HD Graphics 620

  • Hello,
    You can choose which one to use by modifying the bat file of your miner.
    You need to add --device=0 at the end of the Last line.
    The number determine which gpu to use
    Your graphic card seems to be 0.



  • Hi,

    With Marlin you can use option -d

    By default, all OpenCL GPUs are used. To use a specific subset of OpenCL devices, use option -d with a comma-separated list of device IDs. The full list of IDs is printed every time the miner is started. Note that Nvidia GPUs should be listed twice, once as CUDA and once as OpenCL devices; the OpenCL interface is disabled by default for these GPUs, as CUDA usually gives better results.

    Just run it and then stop it after it starts mining. You should see device IDs on start of output.



  • Btw CUDA is usually better according help, but I suppose you should also try OpenGL to see what is better.
