This walks you from downloading the AI App to your first chat completion. Time: 5 minutes plus model download (which happens in the background and varies by model size).Documentation Index

Before you start
Hardware check
10/11, NVIDIA RTX with 8 GB+ VRAM, recent driver. Full breakdown in Hardware requirements.
Disk space
~30 GB free for downloaded models. More if you keep many models cached.
GamerHash account
Created during install — email or Google login.
Network
Broadband. Initial model downloads are large (4–20 GB depending on model).
1. Download
Open the download page
Go to gamerhash.com/en/app-download and click Download GamerHash AI. The installer is
.exe and signed.Run the installer
Double-click the downloaded
.exe. Windows may ask for admin permission — accept. The installer is signed by GamerHash; if Windows SmartScreen warns, click More info → Run anyway.2. First run
Sign in or create an account
On first launch you’ll be prompted. Sign in with Google is the fastest path. Email + password also works.
Run the GPU benchmark
The app benchmarks your GPU once to size workloads correctly. Takes ~1 minute. You won’t need to repeat this unless you change hardware.
First model download is the slowest step. Smaller text models (~5 GB) download in 5–15 minutes on a typical home connection. Image and video models can be 10–20 GB.
3. Your first chat
Open the Chat module
From the dashboard, click Chat. The model you just downloaded should be selected.
Send a prompt
Type a question and hit Enter. First response includes a model warmup — subsequent responses are faster.
4. Try image generation
Pick a model
For 8 GB GPUs, Sana Sprint is a good first choice — fast and high quality. For 12 GB+, try FLUX.1 Schnell.
5. Opt in to earn (optional)
If you want to share idle GPU power for GUSD:Leave it on when you're not gaming
Earning workloads take the full GPU and VRAM, so you can’t earn and game at the same time. Launching a game pushes the module out automatically; close the game and earning resumes on its own.
Troubleshooting
Installer won't run / Windows SmartScreen warning
Installer won't run / Windows SmartScreen warning
Click More info → Run anyway. The installer is signed by GamerHash sp. z o.o. — verify the publisher in the certificate dialog.
Benchmark fails
Benchmark fails
Almost always a driver issue. Update to the latest NVIDIA Studio driver, reboot, retry. If it still fails, try the Game Ready driver. Report persistent failures in Discord

Model download is stuck
Pause and resume from the Model Center. If it keeps stalling, check disk space and disable any aggressive antivirus. Some AVs scan multi-GB files extremely slowly.
Chat is slow / first response delayed
Chat is slow / first response delayed
First response loads the model into VRAM (cold start). Subsequent responses are fast. If chat is consistently slow, your GPU may be hitting VRAM limits — switch to a smaller quantized variant of the same model.
The earning module never gets workloads
The earning module never gets workloads
Possible reasons: too few hours of uptime, GPU class limits the workload pool, network demand is low at the moment. Check the in-app dashboard and Medium community updates for current network demand.
