Scrypt Hashing (Litecoin, Worldcoin, Feathercoin, Dogecoin etc..)
In response to growing enthusiasm to the world of cryptocurrencies we have started to benchmark graphics card for their hashing power. While Bitcoin mining is pointless and unprofitable on consumer hardware, Scrypt mining can still be profitable due to the absence of Scrypt ASIC miners. We use CGMiner for AMD cards and CUDA miner for Nvidia cards to benchmark their Scrypt Hashing performance. You can see configurations for Scrypt-hashing and more Scrypt hashing results here. Our results are by no means the best that is possible for each of the graphics cards we test, these results are based on stock clocked cards and we do not spend that much time tweaking to find the optimal settings, though they should give you a rough idea of what to aim for. Note that a recent update for CUDA miner allows much better performance on Nvidia cards. Results on Nvidia cards before the update have been marked pre-update.
