Title: Virtual box+ ubuntu in windows 7, possible to mine ? Post by: malekbaba on October 30, 2016, 08:19:43 PM I am not a Linux user, I prefer Windows. But it seems to me that Linux is more mining friendly. Is it possible to mine with gpus in linux, If I manage to build linux OS within my windows 7 by virtualbox ? Will I get same performance ?

You can't GPU mine from a VM. But you can CPU mine and run a walllet. Title: Re: Virtual box+ ubuntu in windows 7, possible to mine ?
