Supported NVIDIA Drivers

FluxCore requires specific NVIDIA driver versions for GPU support. Check the official FluxCore documentation for the current supported driver list. Generally, drivers from the last 6 months are supported. Update your driver if FluxCore doesn't detect your GPU.

FluxCore is designed to run in the background with minimal impact on your daily computer use. You can set resource limits to prevent it from using all available GPU/CPU power.

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
GPU not detected	Update NVIDIA drivers to a supported version. Ensure CUDA is installed.
Low earnings	Earnings depend on demand. Keep your machine online and available during peak hours.
App crashes on Windows	Run as Administrator. Check Windows Defender exclusions.
Connection issues	Check firewall settings. FluxCore needs outbound internet access.
