Title: Mining with CPU?
Post by: liteon on December 17, 2014, 06:45:36 PM
Hello everone!

I have a simple question, which is:

If I have, for example, 5 servers with 8 core's, what would be good to mine with cpu?
No graphic card.
Most profitable only is needed, not "possible the best in future". I need something good, the best in present time.
Thanks for answers in advance!

Sadly CPU mining I would say has been a while since profitable.  I think no matter what coin you mine it will be at a loss. 

CPU and GPU both just use a lot of electricity and results for most don't make it worth while.

OK, but even I know that - which one is currently most profitable?

You need to post this in the alt coin section. CPU and GPU mining of BTC has not been feasible for over a year.
