Post by: danielone80 on January 17, 2018, 09:18:08 AM
Hi all,
Is someone aware of any CPU miner usable for power pc (power7) processors  ???
My configuration:
Centos7 on PPC(power pc) 6.4.

If you intend to use the CPU without using GPU. You can try mining ETN or XMR. But my advice is better you don't mining without using GPU. Because it will have a small profit, not even profit. Moreover, hardware damaged due to excessive heat and waste of electricity. But if only to know the process of mining, that's something good.

You can try minergate cpu mine they have lot's of coins to choose to even though you will only use your cpu to mine.

thank you both,
the problem is not which currency to mining, but which miner to be able to run on my configuration,I find miner that can work only with sha256 and scrypt(but I find myself competing with the GPU, so not profitable) and no miner working for power pc with algorithms for only cpu(coin) :-(

I hope it was clear.
Thanks
Daniel

I think it is very difficult to mine with the CPU. I also once tried to mine with the CPU (ETN and minergate) although different from the configuration you have.
