Trying out Computta Smart Miner on a MacBook Pro 16"

Post by macminergod »




Video showing Computta Smart Miner benchmark results on a MacBook Pro 16" (MacBook Pro16,4) 2.4GHz 8-Core 5600M. The begining of the video shows actual mining activity and benchmark is run later. According to the miner, I could make $110.36 monthly mining with CPU. For whatever reason, the miner DID NOT detect our AMD 5600M GPU. We had some trouble with this miner as it frequently crashed Windows as well, even just running a benchmark. Not sure if this had to do with our screen recording.
