Title: [HELP] ALT coins mining using a laptop? Post by: mac2k13 on April 15, 2014, 05:48:34 AM Help everyone, I'm just new to these currency and don't also have any experience in mining.
I did heard that mining BTC using a laptop is not good nowadays, so I was thinking to mine some Alt coins instead, BTW here is the specification of my laptop: Intel(R) Core (TM) i3-2310M CPU @ 2.10 GHZ 2.10GHZ RAM 4.00 GB 64bit Operating System AMD Radeon HD 6370M 1024MB Help me please, what ALT coin is best for me to mine using my laptop only and I don't have any Miner hardware. Also please teach me how to install it step by step.. I really hope someone would help me. Title: Re: [HELP] ALT coins mining using a laptop?

Old AMD cards from laptops are generally pretty bad in comparison to what the newer desktop cards can produce.

good luck in whatever you decide. |
