      Hello everyone! I have wanted to start mining for a long time but never got around to it until now so here I am :D . I have 2 Radeon HD 6870 Graphics cards and was wondering if I would get a better hash rate if I were to mine in a minimalist Linux distribution such as Crunchbang rather than in Windows? I don’t have much experience with Linux and I don’t know what drivers are like for my graphics card and I would greatly appreciate any help I could get. Thanks ;D

        Hi and welcome to the community.
        I run 3x 6670 cards and the hashrate seems to be very much the same between windows and Linux mint and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

        I have been able to save some power overhead by using a USB stick as the HDD but it does make installation a little slower.
