Salad supports most Graphics Cards (GPUs) with at least 2 - 3 Gigabytes (GB) of Video Ram (VRAM). This includes most consumer GPUs made by AMD and NVIDIA since 2015, with some exceptions. Here’s a few examples of the lower-end cards we support:
- GTX 1050 Ti
- GTX 950
- Radeon RX 460
If your card is older, or a more budget model, then it’s unlikely to work with Salad due to a lack of processing power. Furthermore, GPUs that come with your CPU never pack enough punch for dedicated mining. If you only have an Integrated Graphics Card, you will not be able to mine with Salad.
If you are unable to mine with your current GPU, there are other means of earning Salad Balance on the application. Find the “Offerwalls” tab, where you can complete tasks from third party “Offer” platforms in exchange for Balance.
Here’s how to find your GPU if you don’t know what your computer has: How to Find My GPU. Here’s the difference between VRAM and ordinary RAM: VRAM vs. RAM.
If you’re unable to find your machine’s VRAM, or think that something else may be causing your PC to be incompatible with Salad, feel free to visit our Discord for live help or submit a support ticket.
