If you could mockup a few examples and clips I’m sure some talented (and creative folk) with hop in and offer ideas and words of wisdom.

Q: Is it possible (and worth it) to run a CPU miner like minerd & a GPU miner like CGminer at the same time on the same machine.

I would guess the benefit would be using the GPU and CPU at the same time.

Thoughts?

i mine both on my CPU (minerd) and GPU (cgminer), however be aware that if you use all the cores/threads of cpu you might get a reduction in cgminer perfomance.
for instance when i ran 100% cpu power on minerd my rigs went down from producing total of 6000khash to about 5000khash.
I fixed this by using only 6 of 8 threads (i7) and 2 of 3 cores in my AMD cpu. This way i only use about 70-80% off total cpu usage, leaving some for cgminer to performe optimal.

This was just for clarification.

What does it mean when I see “immature” coins on my display? ???

Also if my wallet computer is down for a while and there is a payout, where do the coins go? :'(

Immature means that the transaction needs to be confirmed by the network. That usually happens if the transaction “matures” in 120 blocks. So you gotta wait some hours until that transaction materializes as available coins in your wallet.

If your wallet computer is down, it will re-sync once it’s online again and thus the coins will then also be available after syncing.
