Title: Need Help For Mining From CPU Post by: PriyamShah on January 13, 2019, 07:17:42 AM So my pc setup is a GTX 1070 and an i7-7700. Since the downfall of many cryptocurrency in the past few months, I have started using nicehash autominer for my graphics card. Now the question is, my cpu lies at barely 5% use throughout the day. So are there any viable cryptocurrency that I can mine using my cpu???

Also, you may use XMRig as a miner for CPU.Title: Re: Need Help For Mining From CPU Post by: Iannn on January 13, 2019, 07:46:47 PM I have not used Nicehash in a long time but I know you could add the cpu along with your gpu's when I was using it. I remember comparing hash rates with cpu on and off and I do not think the difference was much though. But if getting the max out is your goal turn it on.
Title: Re: Need Help For Mining From CPU Post by: swogerino on January 13, 2019, 09:39:05 PM Monero is the best option to mine with your Cpu. Nicehash latest miner software can make it to good use as I think they have added new miners, mostly for the Gpu-s though.
I have quit Nicehash in favor of Winminer but Winminer quit the mining businnes so I am back with Nicehash. You should use it too. |
