1 - such a noob. 2 - noob do your own research 3 - retard noob, retard question Ok, now that we have that out of the way... Your cpu only has 6mb of cache to share for the 4 cores. You might be able to get away with mining monero, sumo or electroneum on 3 of the cores. As for you video card, does it have 4GB of memory? I am not super familiar with that card. google says somewhere between 15-20 MH/s on Ether. That would only be about $22-$28 per month.
