Title: Re: How works this bitcoin miner? Post by: xexio on September 10, 2013, 11:52:29 PM The question is:
Once I connect the USB-miner, and put the cgminer to mine bitcoins. This will make my CPU usage up to 100%? Title: Re: How works this bitcoin miner?

You don't have to mine with CPU or GPU. Just plug it in, install a miner, get all that stuff, and you're ready to go.This affect a my CPU? Title: Re: How works this bitcoin miner?

But, I have another question. For mining, what is the best hardware, a ASIC, an FPGA or a Graphic card? Title: Re: How works this bitcoin miner?
