Title: would this machine mine? Post by: bitbollox on December 10, 2013, 09:43:41 PM hi, would I be able to mineBTC with this I know that its going to be slow and might not be worth while but the pc would be on anyway (I would only be surfing the net so wouldnt be needing much in the way of GPU) heres the laptop JUST kidding ;)
AMD bulldozer FX - 8120 8 core processor overclocked to 4Ghz Asus M5A99X EVO motherboard 8 GB DDR 3 Ram AMD Radeon HD 6700 XFX 500 GB hard drive Windows 7 64 bit os cheers Title: Re: would this machine mine? Post by: WillMilk4Coin on December 10, 2013, 09:53:28 PM Is that a 6770 or a 6750? Yes, it will mine - approximately .0001 BTC per day. The days of GPU mining have passed with the dawning of the ASIC revolution. You'd likely be better off using the money saved from the electricity usage by putting it toward buying BTC outright. -and/or, use the current setup to mine Litecoin or another altcoin.
Title: Re: would this machine mine? Post by: bitbollox on December 10, 2013, 11:13:52 PM a 6700! I have looked at lightcoin and also feathercoin and believe that LTC is also going ASIC in the next year or so, so do you think I should use this machine for LTC and just buy some cloud hashing for btc is there a calculator that works on cloud hashing just the calcs I have seen always ask for the wattage and how much electric is but that wont be in the equation also would there be a minimum amount of gh/s to buy as I cant see just 1 being profitable and if your paying out you want to see some return lol
