Title: Which is better for Litecoin mining? CPU or GPU? Post by: sunsteyet on May 02, 2013, 10:24:29 AM Is the advantage to the CPU or to the GPU?

GPU Mining is always extremely faster then cpu Title: Re: Which is better for Litecoin mining? CPU or GPU? Post by: Sir Lagsalot on May 02, 2013, 10:26:52 AM AMD GPU all the way, it's not even close. This page has all the numbers: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison

Post by: AndNorTar on May 02, 2013, 12:35:06 PM Granted, CPU mining Litecoins is more viable than CPU mining Bitcoins (https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/wiki/Mining-hardware-comparison), but as the others are saying, GPUs give a much better hash/watts ratio.

This page has all the numbers: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison That is for sha256 hashing. Look at litecoin hardware comparison Title: Re: Which is better for Litecoin mining? CPU or GPU? Post by: BitcoinBoss on May 02, 2013, 04:27:13 PM GPU without question is the winner! :)

You can mine CPU but really your going to spend more on power than you will get in LTC - David |
