Title: looking for coin worth mining with CPU Post by: tommy1735 on June 09, 2017, 03:10:53 PM hi
i have access to some dedicated servers with following CPUs where i have no power cost and most of them are about to idle: 1x i7 980 @ 3,33GHz 6 core 12 threads 1x Xeon W3520 @2.67GHz 4 core 8 threads 2x i7-2600 @3,4GHz 4 core 8 threads thats all VMware vSphere ESX servers i could make a new VM with any OS but i guess a ubuntu server would be best stable... just have no clue about coins for CPU any ideas much welcome Title: Re: looking for coin worth mining with CPU Post by: senseless on June 09, 2017, 03:12:26 PM Monero will make you a little bit. Title: Re: looking for coin worth mining with CPU Post by: bobben2 on June 09, 2017, 05:05:43 PM I was mining Monero last year with xmr-stak-cpu miner.
I was running it on an i5-4570S CPU @ 2.90GHz, running single threaded giving a hashrate ~ 120h/s. Today that rate would give you ~ $0.45. It doesn't make much sense to CPU-mine established coins like Monero unless you were speculating it going to moon. It is better to find a new coin and mine it until it is "taken over" by gpu-miners.

i have installed the CPU miner on all Servers (~20) i have Access to and making about: 4.08 KH/s (12h) 4.11 KH/s (1h) 3.95 KH/s (10m) (useing minexmr pool) its about 0.29 xmr per day = 15$ per day big thanks again to senseless for that idea, its a huge win for me because i have not much money Title: Re: looking for coin worth mining with CPU Post by: Marekkon5 on June 18, 2017, 12:01:03 PM Hey, I am mining Verium (VRM). Its 1.50$ now, but ppl say it will grow.

Might be worth mining gpu instead cpu? i have installed the CPU miner on all Servers (~20) i have Access to and making about: 4.08 KH/s (12h) 4.11 KH/s (1h) 3.95 KH/s (10m) (useing minexmr pool) its about 0.29 xmr per day = 15$ per day big thanks again to senseless for that idea, its a huge win for me because i have not much money Title: Re: looking for coin worth mining with CPU Post by: tommy1735 on June 25, 2017, 08:51:07 AM all servers have no GPU
90% of them are VMWARE vSphere ESX Servers... using 1 VM with all cores to run xmr-stak-cpu-notls miner afaik GPU would not work in VM (virtual machine) but nevermind couz no GPU there mining in office with 3x RX580 ETC at the moment (about 0.7 ETC/day) together with monero its about 25$ per day, about 750$ per month |
