Title: [Assistance] Solo mining in order to find a block
Post by: Fakhoury on July 02, 2016, 10:05:05 PM
Hello,

I've used to mine with CPU and GPU when this was the mainstream and you could also mine using the web-browser.

Now there are ASICs and such, so I didn't get into mining, I used to buy/work and hodl.

But I want to try my luck and mine solo using my CPU and GPU in order to find a block, maybe I will be lucky, who knows :D ;D

My CPU : AMD FX 9590 8-Core 4.7 GHz

My GPU : AMD Radeon R9 270 X HAWK

Again, I know this is nothing, and odds in not my side in any means.

I just want to do this for fun :P and luck even if it's 0.000001%, I've nothing to lose.

I just need help from where to start, what pool to join.

Thanks in advance :)
