I don't understand what Kilohashes is!
What does it mean, and how do i find out, what my GPU outputs?
My GPU N670GTX-PM2D2GD5/OC
How do i find out my self?

I don't do bitcoin/litecoin mining so someone may wish to correct me, but 'kilohashes' is basically just a unit of measurement for how much 'mining' your hardware does. A 'hash' is the output of a cryptographic function, so data is fed in and then 'hashed'. Kilohashes (or megahashes/gigahashes) refers to how many times your hardware can perform that operation per second.
If you want to melt your brain a little, have a read of this:

And there's a table here showing hash rates for various hardware:

@EvilGenius has it right.
Kh/s is Kilohashes per section or 1000 hashes per section 240kh/s would be 240,000 hashes per section
It goes up just like memory
Megahashes = Millions of hashes/s
Gigahashes = Billions of hashes per second.
A gtx 760 will do around 150KH/s its not worth mineing with gpu's anymore especially nvidia gpus just to put it into perspective a $80 AMD card like a HD7770 will do 200+KH/s
