I will go for NVIDIA GPU. AMD GPU consume more power than NVIDIA's GPUs which can lead to more generation of heat and eventually higher electricity costs.

I too agree with the point that NVIDIA is more preferable than AMD.

Vega 56 and 64 are very good on Cryptonight. Much better than 1080 ti.

Is it possible to mine Electroneum with GPU? Because i can only mine with CPU. And the difficulty is very high now... Can't mine any coin. I don't know what is Electroneum team plan with mining with a smartphone as it is already difficult to mine with CPU...

NVIDIA, really? Electroneum is Cryptonote, so AMD all the way!
Here is guide I've made: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2345911.0

Yeah mobile mining :D They just forked Monero and rename it to Electroneum, even their wallet says Monero :D But I've mined a lot of it, I'm happy and hope the coin will get some better value :3

Great tutorial, thanks! I only have an NVIDIA. The first purpose was to play games, but now it is for mining...

Hi I am new too mining and me and my two other friends are having problems using the electroneum for beginners programme it starts to mine then stops straight away.  We are using old low cpu laptops all 64bit windows 10 cpu between 1.60 GHz and just over 2 GHz could this be he reason they are not working ?

Also disabled antivirus and Windows firewall still didn't work reinstall the program 10 times too.

Your help would be great.

Hi, i think it will be very difficult for you to mine. I am mining with my Nvidia 1080 GTX and i only get 1,5 ETN per hour. I have tried CPU mining this morning and i did get 3 ETN (in maybe 10 hours?), but it was not enough to be sent as the minimal value of ETN we need is 25 or 100. It depends of the pool you are mining at. I have an I7 CPU. I think 2.6 Ghz, but not sure about that. And solo mining is near impossible i think. But you can try to mine other CPU coins. I found that a new coin exist. It is YenTen. But you need a lot of luck and sometimes you may need 2 days to find a block. In a block you can usually get 50 coins. It is solo mining with the wallet. But maybe there is some mining pool too. Or you can mine HODLCoin which is easy to mine with the wallet.

You can also try to mine XDN with Minergate. Minergate is for CPU mining and has an easy graphical interface for mining coins. It can automatically choose what to mine.

The easiest way to mine a coin is with Minergate. I started to mine with Minergate and still use it.

Don't disable your antivirus and firewall. But maybe you need to add in the exclusion list of your antivirus the mining/wallet applications. Antivirus sometimes think that it is a virus.

i started to mine electroeum on mac using miner gate software for mining reference and testing only. Here's is what i did, Clik on "other pool" and on display name field input "ETN" , pool url is "asiapool.electroneum.com:3333" and pool login is your public wallet address of ETN. you can change asiapool to eupool or uspool, depending on your region for pool url.
