Mining Guide for LTC @ mining.rhprogramming.org:9327

Prerequisites:
=================
Enable file extension editing/viewing:
 1) Open Windows Explorer.
 2) Go to Tools > Folder Options. If you can't see the menu, press ALT to show it.
 3) Click on the View tab.
 4) Uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types".
 5) Done!

Now: Pick (a) side(s)!

Have a good CPU? Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/files/ and download the latest cpuminer!
Be sure to get 64-bit if your processor supports it! (I know 64-bit support is on Core i3/i5/i7, AMD Phenom, AMD A-Series, and the AMD FX-series!)

Have a good GPU? Go to http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/ and download the latest for Windows!

If you're on Linux/Mac OS X, download for your platform and do the following:
 -> Remove @echo off
 -> Add quotes around the echo statements. For instance, `echo bla` becomes `echo "bla"`.
 -> Add `./` before the mining command. For instance, `minerd bla` becomes `./minerd bla`.
 -> Change `pause` to `read`.
 -> Save it!
 -> Make sure to `chmod +x mine.sh`! (Make sure to `cd` to your directory first!)

CPU Mining
=============
Create a batch script called mine.bat inside the folder where minerd.exe is. Put the following inside:
@echo off
echo Starting to mine LTC...
minerd -o http://mining.rhprogramming.org:9327/ -u LTC_ADDRESS_HERE -p x -a scrypt
echo Mining program exited. To restart mining, run this script again.
pause
---------------------------------------------------------
Add -t X to control number of cores used, where X is the number of core you want to use.

Example:
	Usual business:
	minerd -o http://mining.rhprogramming.org:9327/ -u LeKBmAPjtMn2xBJG34dkeb3oc2xTFJ2Eot -p x -a scrypt

	Using only 2 cores:
	minerd -o http://mining.rhprogramming.org:9327/ -u LeKBmAPjtMn2xBJG34dkeb3oc2xTFJ2Eot -p x -a scrypt -t 2

GPU Mining
=============
Create a batch script called mine.bat inside the folder where minerd.exe is. Put the following inside:
@echo off
echo Starting to mine LTC...
cgminer -I 12 --worksize 256 --thread-concurrency 8192 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 -o http://mining.rhprogramming.org:9327/ -u LTC_ADDRESS_HERE -p x --scrypt
echo Mining program exited. To restart mining, run this script again.
pause
---------------------------------------------------------
Modify the X in -I X for increasing speed OR increasing GPU responsiveness (by lowering the number). This represents mining "intensity".

Other numeric options depend on your graphics card. Check the following table for arguments used to achieve fast speeds on many GPUs:

If you can't find your card, experiment (carefully)!
MSI Afterburner is a good overclocking tool for ATI GPUs.

OVERCLOCKING EXPERTS: --gpu-vddc X.X allows you to change the input voltage - amateurs beware!
