Hello , I'm henryhotmail2 , a.k.a. LittleDemY , fellow brethren here , with a console demolisher under the desk.
Long time ago , I mined bitcoin with GPU's that had the vram fried , since bitcoin didn't require any vram.
Some time ago I started litecoin mining(Scrypt mining , not sha-256 as in bitcoin) witch requires vram on the GPU's.
Is there any way to use , the ram instead of vram?
I came up with this idea when I saw the HD4600 in teh i5 4670K use the ram as vram cause it has 0 vram.
I know how slow ram is compared to vram , I have free electricity and fried gpu's are almost free , so efficiency is not a problem.
Thank you.
Please don't tell me why it's an bad idea or how the performance will be not good , I just care to make it work , Thank you , again.
P.S.I have 256 mb of xdr ram at 28.8GB/sec( 230.4 Gbit/s) , any way this could be connected to a PC , since it came from a ps3?
P.S.2 I saw that it is posible to use vram as a swap disk , to complement ram , I saw ram complementing vram , but ram replacing vram completely , any way it can be done?
