I would recommend first checking this list to see what your expected hash rate will be:

And then see how much you will make from that rate:

Please factor in power consumption. After you have made a decision to mine armed with those facts, I'd join a mining pool and download GuiMiner.

The pool operator will be happy to address your questions on how to setup the mining client as you are making them money.

  • I'm aware of GPUs' limitations for mining; I'm only doing this for testing purposes. thanks for the links, though

    head over to bitcointalk.org and ask around. It sounds like you need a discussion to answer your question. The mining community there is second to none Commented Apr 26, 2013 at 16:38
