+Q: Can I mine with cgminer on a MAC?
|
|
|
|
|
+A: cgminer will compile on OSX, but the performance of GPU mining is
|
|
|
|
|
+compromised due to the opencl implementation on OSX, there is no temperature
|
|
|
|
|
+or fanspeed monitoring, and the cooling design of most MACs, despite having
|
|
|
|
|
+powerful GPUs, will usually not cope with constant usage leading to a high
|
|
|
|
|
+risk of thermal damage. It is highly recommended not to mine on a MAC unless
|
|
|
|
|
+it is to a USB device.
