Title: AMD Threadripper 1950X 16 core 32 threads CPU mining what miner,pool and wallet? Post by: ISUther on February 09, 2018, 02:24:17 PM Hello,
I am new to this crypto mining thing. I have AMD Threadripper 1950X 16 core 32 threads CPU And i wanted to test and start mining what that. As i understand CryptoNight algorythm is CPU only. And those cons are: https://cryptodelver.com/algorithm/cryptonight however i do not know what miner,pool and wallet to use. As i understand all wallets do not support those coins. I downloaded wallet named as Jxx tho it does not support Monero I downloaded Monero GUI wallet from here: https://getmonero.org/downloads/ but in wallet i do not see wallet address. As i understand i need 1. Pool from where i mine - Place where i mine with my tool 2. Miner - Tool that is used to mine 3. Wallet - Place where mining recources are moved I try to avoid nicehash Title: Re: AMD Threadripper 1950X 16 core 32 threads CPU mining what miner,pool and wallet? Post by: jackg on February 09, 2018, 04:34:44 PM If it's a CPU only algorithm, you might not need a pool with the power you have solo mining (might?) be more profitable.
There is normally a console command to mine a coin from inside the wallet software. I found this guide, it might be helpful: https://blockonomi.com/how-to-mine-monero/ Title: Re: AMD Threadripper 1950X 16 core 32 threads CPU mining what miner,pool and wallet?

i do 3D stuff and i was wondering can i use my CPU also for mining. I can but seems that Monero mining for example the proffit is too low to tun it. I was getting 210 Mh/s Title: Re: AMD Threadripper 1950X 16 core 32 threads CPU mining what miner,pool and wallet?

I can but seems that Monero mining for example the proffit is too low to tun it. I was getting 210 Mh/s I'm not sure there are any coins that are good for mining with a CPU than there would be with a GPU. As both can run similar processes but GPUs generally can run more complex ones as they have a generally much faster clock speed and also quite a lot of RAM normally. Unless you could find a new altcoin that has just started to be mined so there is a low difficulty then you might get something. Otherwise, without an asic/GPU, mining isn't economically viable.

Post by: billhinge on February 09, 2018, 09:12:07 PM I get about 1200H/s with threadripper using xmr-stak-cpu
see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2126975.0 also see how to mine electroneum thread Title: Re: AMD Threadripper 1950X 16 core 32 threads CPU mining what miner,pool and wallet? Post by: BitMaker2017 on February 09, 2018, 10:14:01 PM You can check http://monerobenchmarks.info/ to see 1950x max capabilities. Nowadays it's a most powerful single-CPU mining solution, upto 1370 h/s on cryptonight algo. Current daily profit is $1.2 on Monero and $2.2 on Electroneum.

Some people say that it's more profitable to mine lyra2Z coins than cryptonight. A good coin with that algo would probably be XZC or CRS.
If you plan to mine XZC then I suggest you follow JKcrypto.com's tutorial for mining XZC (Zcoin). Also I recommend MiningPoolHub as your pool of choice, as it has the biggest hashrate. Good luck!

* You can bypass the wallet stage and use an exchange address in a pool, but I would only do this as a test. I strongly suggest you control your own keys and use a wallet. Need any more help just ask |
