I have a low-end laptop right now. I have an Acer Aspire ES1-431 Laptop with 2GB memory Windows 10. I am not really tech savvy but I think its worth the shot.

I have a Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3,40 GHz (x64) and 16 GB ram

Hi,

ist there a coin profitable to mine with cpu?

Thanks

I have started cpu mining XMR on my 6x rigs while the GPUs mine ZEC.  :)

Hi,

Thanks

Can you say the components and the hash rate?

H81 pro btc R2.0 mobo
G1840 cpu
6x zotac 1070 mini
8gb corsair ram
EVGA GQ-1000 psu
16gb USB key  https://www.amazon.com/Lexar-JumpDrive-16GB-Flash-Drive/dp/B00S5V5PMY (https://www.amazon.com/Lexar-JumpDrive-16GB-Flash-Drive/dp/B00S5V5PMY)

29.1 H/s 6 hour average XMR @ nanopool ( at current rates with 10c kwh electric the cpu will generate $16 profit a year, and roi on its own in ~3 years )  Note cpu mining hashrate is all over the place (less frequent shares); so it takes a while to get a good idea of a cpu's average hashrate.

2655.4 Sol/s 6 hour average ZEC @ nanopool ( all 6x cards cc200, mc400, powerlimit 125 on nvOC )

using 880 watts at the wall

Currently only running +cpu on a few of my rigs, but all have been stable for over 24 hours; so I will deploy +cpu mining on all my rigs tonight / tomorrow.  I have an i3 on the way to test as well.

If all my rigs are stable with +cpu mining I will add it as an option to the next version of nvOC.  Also looking for alternative cpu mined coins to try; if anyone has any recommendations.

Isn't mining counterproductive both with cpu and gpu? I've noticed sometimes that GPU's hashrate decrease if CPU is mining.

VeriumReserve (VRM) is a decent CPU-only mining coin you might want to take a look at. I've been mining it the last couple of weeks. There is a pool and client downloads at http://vrm.poolinat0r.com (http://vrm.poolinat0r.com).

Myriad Coin - using the Yescrypt algo is good for cpu right now. I mostly trade to make profits but mine myriad to make up for any loses, if any, i would have in a day. I switch between Aeon and Myriad using two laptops and two tablets with free electricity and can make some good coin.
You can also try Coin Magi, but recently i found it not to be as profitable.
Zcoin - is another coin that is mine-able with cpu. I used to mine this coin about 6 months ago and would get killer profits from it. It is now getting taken over by GPU miners but it can still be mined on CPU.
BitSend - Uses Xevan algo. Isn't as profitable as Aeon or Myriad but can still be mined on a CPU.
Aeon - Uses Cryptonight-light which is faster than the regular cryptonight algo. I like mining Aeon because it seems to never slow down or get taken over by GPU miners. It is always a consistent profit.
GlobalBoostY - another yescrypt coin but i have recently seen a falling out from the community with this coin.
Hope this helps.

Probably monero... Which CPU you have?

I suggest to try RIC (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=446703.0)  Pool http://ublock.it/

One Xeon E5-2670 give me almost 2$ per day.

hasrate in pool?

ric per day?

An AMD Ryzen 1700X @ 4.0 ghz with 2150 H/s can make over $5 a day mining AEON at current prices.  https://aeon-pool.com/#  --- My i7 6700K does ~615 H/s at stock settings = about $1.50 per day on Aeon.

http://ublock.it/index.php?page=statistics&action=pool

Nick same as here. But pool statistic show around half less Ric/day than personal statistic. Ofc, I have not only one processor.

xmr not better?

my cpu in xmr 550 h/s

in ric 15000 khs

Idk, need to check xmr, thanks.

xmr is better

2150 h/s =6.8 usd

Except XMR only gets ~630 hashrate... AEON is a different algo that mines allot faster and is more profitable because of it.

i can give you soem coins which are profitable with cpu, but you need many cpu ro cpu rig to mien them with good return, these coins are magi verium, zoin and monero, all the other are not cpu friendly, but be aware of botnet that are plague for this coins and quickly ruin your profit

Is it possible to run CPU mining on a VMWare with Windows Server 2012. I have 4 x i7 cores with 8 GB ram and 80GB disk space running on top of a VM. Was researching earlier about Digibyte but haven't gotten it to work yet. Any other coin recommendations that are CPU friendly and are profitable to mine? Should I go for XMR or are there better alt coins that are ok to run on a CPU? Thanks!

If you have a CPU only and a stable internet that you can leave for 24x7, I would recommend that you just do Proof of Stake (PoS). PoS doesn't overburden your CPU and internet connection as well. Research on Stratis, Radium and DeepOnion for PoS. Only downside is you need to purchase the coins that you need to stake.

I've tried CPU mining Monero thru a 10Mb internet line, using even the cheapest and fastest pool and it still won't profitable. It will take 3 months before I will be able to transfer .03 XMR to my wallet It also overworks the computer and consumes the bandwidth.

if you wanna do mining with cpu and gpu

it s actually very simple, i don't know why people never think about this
it s actuality oblivious for me

just put your cpu miner in task manager to idle (or at lease lower than normal)  and it can use all your cores
and it won't slow down your gpu's

I have a Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3,40 GHz (x64) and 16 GB ram

Hi,

ist there a coin profitable to mine with cpu?

Thanks

Verium is a CPU only minable coin.

I have a Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3,40 GHz (x64) and 16 GB ram

Also Mining BCN on Miners gate with a Spare Core you never know how the coin might increase in the Future  ;D

BTCakes

cpu mining is profitable same as gpu

as i mentioned before the fx8300 (around 110euro)  does 350-400hs  on monero   if you have 2 of them you been faster than an rx470 but with a bit more power
and at current gpu prices it s cheaper for same performance

an if you keep your monero and sell when price get up (like now) it s definitely profitable

i had athlon 160u on my rings, i change them all for fx8300  it s like i have a hole ring more now

It is then always profitable to mine small altcoins and sell them once they get high. CPU mining is only profitable for mining monero and that too is hard these days i guess. You can mine any other coins whicj has the lowest difficulty and have profit by selling it once it is high. It usually requires a lot of time.

                                                 
What about using the new Ryzen processors?

They do very well at CPU mining, easily the best CPU miners aside from server grade Xeons etc. With a Ryzen 1700/1700X/1800X you can expect to get 600+ Mh/s with Monero and it does well in many other coins too.

586 with the 1800x

Just started testing it.

Going to  run a waterblock rig

For CPU
For gpus.

600+ Mh/s! The Monero world mining hash rate is 233 MH/s.

I am mining biblepay with my cpu. Also Intense coin (ITNS) is new and can be mined with CPU. Actually both the coins are new and not many miners mine those.

Does someone has more info about sumocoin?

Hi guys, i have Athlon II 220 in my rig, what coins can i mine on this CPU?

FX-6300:
1) OC to 4.2GHz (when max. boost in stock was is 4.1GHz)
2) large pages
3) no_prefetch - true
~300h/s (stable 295-297, sometimes going crazy 320 :o) on cryptonight.xmr via NiceHashMiner Legacy v1.8.1.1
just search conf file in nicehashminer folder and edit it ::)

P.S. sry for my bad english

I tried CPU mining (XMR and BCN) for the past 6 hours on minergate. all i can say is, not worth the time and waste of electricity. Im using my Own Personal PC, AMD APU A8 7600 and im only getting 40 - 44 H/s using 50% load on my CPU. i dont know why my Built in GPU R7 is not recognized by minergate or my PC is not really design for CPU mining.

im using that same pc you have an hp pavillion with the spectre r7 graphics 2809mb of gpu cores. on board.


i mine bitsend. straight to cryptopia

I used my CPU Intel core i3 to mining AEON and I mine in my office so I didn't pay the electricity so I can got some profit with long time mining.

how many core you use??
and whats your hashrate?

Don't go with his opinion you will not be able to get the profit atleast you need to bear the electricity cost and your computer will hangs up when you using all the core for mining. If your pc GPU enabled also that will not be good to make profit and all.

Even for altcoin mining also GPU mining will be good not a CPU mining.

lol

good cpu is same profitable than gpu  and  WTF would the computer hang ??  it s because you not smart enough
you can use all the available core, just need to run the app  at cpu idle or at lease lower than normal priority
but on amd 8 core 7 thread get same speed than 8   same for  my 6 core 5 is fine too (little less than 6)

and 2 x fx8300 does the same speed than an rx470 (claymore 9.7) but little more power

if you can not just cpu, but other devices such as vga more important to mine coin, coin example that can be obtained from mine cpu (btc, eth, and many more) , it is better to learn first a suitable device for mining in order to get a high income , you can see it here:
https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator

if we don't have high end computer, then we can not mining with the good result because it will make our computer get hot and in the long time our computer will get damage. its better to buy gpu or vga card like gtx 1050ti and then we add into our computer then we can start mining. but we need to calculate how much our electricity fee because this is the important thing that we must do so we know how much we can take profit from mining.

I have 434h/s with Ryzen 1700x @ stock on xmr

How much have you mined with a standard computer of this coin? The circulation is still very low. Great potential

only ?  that is not much for such expensive cpu
if i push my fx8300 above 4.4ghz id does also that speed  for only 1/4 price of the ryzen
i run it at 4.1ghz for 400h/s  going down to 385 when i use the computer

verium is very hard to mine i gave up

I have a similar case as antonio88s, in my work i have PC with i5-6500 and electricity for free. I use minergates and give me about 75-70 H / s. Although I have set up using 4 cores but the processor is at 83%. Can you advise me how to use the program better? or how to set it up? or what program I should use ? I will be very grateful. BTW Im mining XMR. :)

well I'll give another vote for aeon! mine it, it you have 4 cores CPU, with proper setting, it will be running in 50% of load when mining
the cryptonight-lite version of AEON algo is more power efficient so your cpu do not consume to much energy
with i5 like 6400 or something similar you'll get about 400-600 h/s
it will give you like 0,5 aeon per 2 days I guess.
so do not sell it, wait. once it will pump, say once in 2-3 month sell and earn x3 or x5 more profit

I get 1550h/s with my dual xeon X5650  ;D

hi iam newbie on mining and iam mining monero on 15 different computers with i3,i5,i7 various different cpus
can you recommend me some mining pool and configs

you should mine on miningpoolhud? it's a good pool for me in a long time, you can try it!

iam thinking about swithching to aeon what is your hashrate on miningpoolhub?

Now, i'm not mining by CPU, i've changed to ASIC. Maybe in the future, you will use ASIC or GPU like me  ;)

2150 H/s with a Ryzen 1700X @ 4.0 ghz --- A Threadripper CPU would be about double that. I was sorely tempted to get one of them for my workstation, but aside from mining, I don't really need 32 threads so I stuck with my 8c/16t Ryzen instead. Those Ryzen CPUs are some of the best value I've ever had in a PC.

Hello, 2150 H/s is it on a monero with 1 processor Ryzen 1700x?
what settings did you apply? how much on a monero does it give out on average after overclocking?

mining with cpu is not profitable like gpu , u can have ur laptop damage coz of that , but u can set up some rigs to mine with gpu and get more hashrates 8) 8) 8)

You still need a CPU for the GPU rigs so why not just choose a CPU that is profitable for mining like Ryzen 5 1600. I mine with both CPU and GPU and get more profit than by GPU alone.

Probably monero... Which CPU you have?

Which CPU that's good for mining.. please tell me cause i want to buy PC for mining. Thx

guys i m mining via nicehas software with gtx 1070 and 970 thats ok. but i have
1 x E5-2620 V3 2.4 - 6C 12T
1 x E3-1220 v3 3.1 - 4C 4T
1 x i7-6700 3.4
4 x i5-6500 3.2

and i dont want to waste these CPU powers. How can i use it. Beyond all costs i wish like to know

1- which coin, software, pool or wallet should i use. (prefer no software just command system)
2- i have already a wallet on nicehash but there is a small depeosit fee is there any good alternatives.
3-Generally using win7 x64 or server2012 on them. should i install a linux or Ubuntu OS (in servers if i do it on virtualization will it decreese of my mining rate)
4-which period they are making transfers to wallet i mean after reached 0.001 LTC or 0.00006 BTC etc.

need your guidance. Thank you for all interest.

Note: Im searching about VRM #1 - poolinat0r.com and VRM #2 - poolinat0r.com

I used my laptop Sony Vaio E Core i5, is it ok for mining by CPU? Max Hashing Power is 40h/s :(

NEVER use a laptop to mine cryptos, use it only if you you want to see what Hashing Power you get with yours CPU , but thats it.

Why do you say so? I mean I understand it's not very efficient but "NEVER"?

You could try the Magi (XMG) coin. It has a unique algorithm (cpu only, forever) that is specifically designed to be mineable on an average cpu. Block rewards decrease as overall hashpower increases which discourages big miners. It has a pretty stable price at around the 3500 sat range. If you have a decent computer gridcoin may also be profitable.

Thanks. Do you have experience mining this coin? Using i5 for example how much coins I can get?

all the cpu coin finally will have GPU mining , so i think cpu is useless ,  I even can not find a coin that

only cpu , maybe some coin can only use cpu mining at begin

Which coin is CPU minable currently for good profit with core i7 ?

AEON is pretty good for CPU mining. It has like 4x times higher hashrate than Monero.

Not sure what you're saying here. AEON's network total hashrate right now is ~ 15 MH/s. XMR's network is ~ 236 MH/s. If you meant the kind of mining hashrate you get with the same hardware, then also no — AEON is ~ 2x the hashrate for the same cpu/gpu compared to monero: a typical 4-core i7 hashes XMR at ~ 300+ H/s, and AEON at ~ 700-750 H/s. An AMD Polaris card is ~ 700-800 H/s on XMR, and 1500-1600 H/s on AEON.

The AEON higher mining hashrate doesn't mean much when everyone else has the same higher hashrate...

What is the minimum requirement to mine in CPU

Hello,

does anyone know if ZenCash is CPU mining friendly?

Thanks...

magi is another CPU mining only coin if you guys want to check it out.

don't mine with minergate.
use xmrig to mine aeon coin with aeon pool. use exchange's (I use hitbtc) wallet.
optimize your miner against your CPU type.
my dual xeon X5650 got 12C24T, 24M Cache, so got 1550H/s.
you should got 500-1000H/s depend on your CPU's cache.

you may mine monero (XMR) instead of aeon.

Hi,

I have started cpu mining XMR on my 6x rigs while the GPUs mine ZEC.  :)

Mining XMR is probably the most profitable, but it takes a lot of time until you get paid by the pool.
So, I decide that is not worth it, I'll stick to GPU only.

ETN has been a lot more profitable than XMR for the past 10 days or so. Very frequent payouts even to CPU miners.

It was good for CPU mining only for a first day. After that difficulty increased a lot and couldn't get much. I will give it a try again.

Party may be over after the difficulty jump... but with ~6kh of CPU only power I was able to mine enough INTENSE to have a value of over $3400 USD as of now since August.

What were you mining?

Party may be over after the difficulty jump... but with ~6kh of CPU only power I was able to mine enough INTENSE to have a value of over $3400 USD as of now since August.

Intense is a cryptonight coin. Can you tell me what kind of CPU do you have that gives you 6kh? I have been mining intense since beginning on my old i7 and I have around 10k of it.

i have a Dell precision workstation comes with Intel Core i7-7700HQ with Thunderbolt 3
what is the best coin i can mine that give me the highest ROI? thanks

And beside these new pool just lunch, Crypto coins to check for CPU mining:
Boolberry (BBR)
Coin Magi (XMG)
Cryptonite (XCN)
DigitalNote (XDN)
Monero (XMR)

I would like to inform that we have a new POOL launched some hours ago that has 0% fees all month.
You can use your CPU to mine there! :)

ANN here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2433784.0

Come and join us!

As of right now, probably Electroneum. In the long run there's XMR and AEON as well, but that's when/if ETN's profitability goes down.

thanks. for ETN, which pool give the best result with low fees since i am from asia? i just started the Monero mining using the CPU, will see how is the result.

thanks. for ETN, which pool give the best result with low fees since i am from asia? i just started the Monero mining using the CPU, will see how is the result.

I am mining in http://etnpool.sytes.net Electroneum pool. I think it is a reliable pool with low fee (0.1%) and I satisfied with their payments. You ought to try this...

The problem with ETN is not to find a pool with low fees, but to find a pool that is up and running as close to 24/7 as possible. It looks like larger pools get DDoS'ed on a regular basis and miners lose more because of them being down than from mining fees. I'd say stay away from suprnova, there might be something wrong with their configuration cause even if they're up most of the time they're finding too few blocks for their total hashrate (I got at least 25-30% less from them than I should be getting). I tried mining on hashparty pools, and they used to work fine but have been down a lot lately. Right now I'm mining on http://electroneum.ovh/ and it seems ok.

Right now i mine Electroneum with my CPU. I dont mine profit TODAY, but i think the coin will rise in value ALOT later on. And then i will have made a profit  ;D ;D I dont think there is a coin that you mine directly into profit today.

No wallet download? Can you give so.e more details?

Their app is currently offline, due to security audit. If you go to their website, you can create a paper wallet as a PDF that you will be able to merge into their app once its online again. Hopefully this audit wont take long, you can read about in on their website aswell.

750H on 7800x 4.5. Interesting to see xeons hashrate.

As I understand it, CPU mining is profitable if you mining those coins that will grow in the future

                                                                          CPU Mining Competition


Hello, dear Unitus and CPU miners! Did you know that Unitus will be celebrating its birthday soon? Our 1st block was mined on December 28th, 2014! We will be hosting a CPU mining competition soon in correlation with that! The duration of the contest will be 2 weeks. Starting on December 14th and ending on December 28th, 2017.

Why are we going to do that? We think that there is not enough information available about the hashrate of our CPU algorithms on different processors. Unitus is a rare coin that has 2 CPU mining algorithms: Argon2d and Yescrypt. The situation with Yescrypt is better. We have much more information available. However, it is still not enough:

https://www.zpool.ca/bench/algo?algo=yescrypt
http://yiimp.eu/bench/algo?algo=yescrypt

Unfortunately, they are still poor spreadsheets. For example, Monero has:

http://monerobenchmarks.info/index.php

We, the Unitus community, need to have more useful and aesthetic spreadsheets for every CPU.


Ask this question anywhere, “What can I mine with my CPU?” and the answer will most likely be, “Coins on the CryptoNight algo.” However, the answer should be “Unitus! It has 2 different CPU algorithms, choose whichever one you like. Your GPU can mine, also. It is the most versatile and multifaceted coin available to be mined!” Therefore, we want more information available to the public so people answer with that instead. Information about CPU hashrates can help many people to start mining Unitus which can help increase its popularity creating a synergistic effect, therefore, increasing the activity inside the community helping Unitus rise! You can help us in this matter! All you need to do is participate in the competition and spread information about it!

The rules are simple: people fill lines about their CPUs and win UIS! We are interested in information about all CPU models. New and old, fast and slow, x64 and x86, CISC and RISC, whatever. There are 2 types of prizes.

Immediate prize for one person (independent for every CPU model info and every algorithm):

Base n*1UIS One or more fully filled line, separated by a space, formed according to the example.

+n*2UIS The 1st information about a CPU in the competition
+n*1UIS / +n*2UIS 3+ / 5+ lines for one CPU
+n*1UIS OC or DC hardware
+n*3UIS Unusually things (ARM, 32-bit CPU, etc)

Achievements at the end of the competition on December 28th:

n*10 You have the fastest CPU in the stock frequency!
n*10 You have the fastest CPU in OC!
n*30 Your CPU is the weakest, but don’t worry!
n*10 Your CPU is the newest! n*30 Your CPU is the oldest, and it still works!
n*20 You fill the maximum lines about one CPU!

Total amount of UIS up for grabs will be either:

7,500
15,000
22,500

There is currently 6,500UIS set aside for it and will definitely at least hit 7,500.

I tried to mine on an office computer and it turned out to be nothing. Mining requires large processing power of a pool of powerful video cards or specialized devices.

As I understand it, CPU mining is profitable if you mining those coins that will grow in the future

I'm mining Electroneum. It has a easy set up software. My CPU is a i5 processor. the return is very low. But i don't know how to set up the other mining software. this one is pretty straight forward and easy. So i stuck with it.

So many wrong posters here saying that CPU mining is not profitable. If you have a good CPU and do your research you can make $2+ per day after power costs; even $1 a day after power costs is worth it for a part that you need to have anyways. I would not build an entire PC for CPU mining only, but if you need a PC for other tasks, or are building a mining rig it's worth considering buying a good CPU in order to mine with it. The AMD Ryzen series are wonderful CPU miners and can pay for themselves as quickly as some GPUs you may buy to mine with.

what about Intel cpu g530 @ 2.40 GHz 64-bit and 4gb ram. ? what i can mine there?

Biblepay is the next cpu algo.

I am mining biblepay with my cpu.

biblepay is doing good. s biblepay is cpu only coin with new algorithm.

Biblepay is still good for mining it'seems,  and it is noted at c-cex (rare cpu only coin)
And it makes you feel good because it supports poor orphans  (kids)

Probably woud never mined a cristian coin with a name like biblepay
but the Dev is actually really doing his best and the support for the orphans is a really nice touch.
Just check it out ;-)

for biblepay you can mining with any old shit cores=  1,2,4 cores is best choice ... no need newest xeons

you could mine biblepay,
Use this container if you don't want to deal with the optimized mining setup:

It seems CPU mining will not take profits. If you want to start mining, better to buy GPU miners for freshers

AMD Ryzen processors has approximately 1 year ROI with Monero mining.

You will spend more money on electricity than earn if you use the central processing unit. This is futile. A lot of power is needed for mining.

It's good to cpu mine on daily use computers or if you have a strong enough CPU. If you're running a Q4400 Intel chip you're going to mine like 30mh/s and its going to be a big waste of time.

I have a low-end laptop right now. I have an Acer Aspire ES1-431 Laptop with 2GB memory Windows 10. I am not really tech savvy but I think its worth the shot.

I switched my ryzen 1700 over to verge.  Scrypt algo on mph.  Not sure yet if it would be better to use lyra2v2 on another pool.

would it be a rooky mistake to ask you to run nicehash or its benchmark to see what you could mine best with your CPU?
...if you're not under linux of course...

According to the calcs zcoin, electroneum, and monero are all able to turn a profit with a ryzen CPU.  Not big money obviously - $25-40/month.

Stock clocked ryzen 1700 gets about 650 kh/s lyra2z.  500 h/s crytponight.  Power draw is under 100w.  Do the maths.   :)

Full of speculation when we wanna mine using CPU nowadays, its just like gamble I think. Try to mine coin that can be mined by cpu, low marketcap, brand new coin if we lucky enough than we have in proffit.
Last month ago I mined zoin when it was 0,02$ per coin & the diff is low. Couple month I mined it until I have 1,6k zoin, & now the price $ 1,3 this is worth & make enough  proffit for me.
So try more speculative on mined with cpu or low rig spec.  right now I mining intense coin, I thinks it has a good future

Been trying to get XMR-STAK to work for me but I keep getting socket errors.  Electroneum on MPH.

I have the right pool and port in the config.  When I launch the client it gives me this error:

https://preview.ibb.co/kUQAEw/mph.jpg (https://ibb.co/n21iZw)

I mined the same way and was hoping it will become something. I have also around 1.8k zoin from mining even though I have been mining for awhile but I am using my old laptop for it. I don't care if it breaks my laptop but already have earned enough to buy a new one from Zoin.

In my opinion, mining is gradually disappearing into the past. For mining, you need to spend too much electricity and time. It is necessary to pass from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake.

Hi,

ist there a coin profitable to mine with cpu?

Thanks

In my opinion, you need to give up mining. This is a senseless waste of resourceful resources. Mining should not be used in the future.

PoW is the best way to secure the network.

What program do people use to CPU mine?

What's the difference between CPU and GPU mining? I thought it was just ASIC and CPU mining..

The difference is simply that with CPU mining you mine some algo with your CPU doing the hashing. And with GPU mining, your GPU is doing the work. And then there are FPGA's and ASIC's

Most algo's are more efficiently mined with GPU than CPU. But you can definitely still mine with a CPU.

What is the current network hash rate? Couldn't find it on the block explorer.

What is the current network hash rate? Couldn't find it on the block explorer.

It is around 15MH/sec, it has doubled since last week. It is on the block explorer on the top left.

Tested a friends computer with nicehash miner.

he has a i7-7800, and a geforce gtx 1060 3gb.

Does this look right?

Guessing if there is some OC then the CPU will mine just a little more?

Some of my results that I would like to share with the community:

2x Xeon 2667 V2: 1200-1300 H/s. Power consumption of each CPU: 100W
2x Xeon 2690 V1: 950 H/s Power consumption of each CPU: 100W

So yes, you can make good returns with CPUs you already own. I just happened to have these workstations: not sure I would have recommended anyone to buy these just for mining!

Oh: added benefit. No need for heating at home :)

I have 2x Xeon E5645, not making much from mining, but indeed heating is not an issue in that room :P

May I ask please, which coins were you mining?

Where can I find software for CPU mining?

hi all...
ive been messing around with cpu mining on a couple pieces of junk for about a year now...
for now, ive been just looking for things that are brand new, so my junk has a chance in the first week or so...
I have a chance to pick up a couple of old servers for about 250$ total...

1. Dell Poweredge 2950 (2U Server)
 Dual (2x4) Quad core Intel E5410 Xeon processors (8 cores total)
 8GB DDR2 Ram (Max 64GB Ram)
 Dual 150GB SATA hard drives (system supports SAS or SATA drives)
and
2. Dell Poweredge R610 (1U Server)
Dual (2x4) Quad core Intel E5504 Xeon processors (8 cores total)
 8GB DDR3 Ram (Max 192GB)
 Dual 160GB SAS hard drives (system supports 2.5" SAS and 2.5" SATA drives)
 Dual Redundant Power supplies

ive done some fairly extensive research and cant find shit for answers...

my question, what kind of hash rate could I expect out of these two for say, monero, aeon or other cpu coin?
would it be worth it at the end of the day?
thanks

if you can have it for 250$  i don't think that cpus are power hungry, should be good
but can't tell you what hashrate you can expect i don't have any intel, you have so check if cpu has AES

These CPUs would be probably slower than my Xeon X3440 @ 3,2 GHz.
I don't remember hashrate for Monero on my PC, but I did a calculations few months ago and it wasn't able to mine 1 Monero in a year... So you can try only if you have electricity for free.
You can try cpuminer-opt 3.7.x and try to mine some new coins, which use CPU-favour algos.

thanx for the info...
they are still for sale, (probably wont sell) I think I will wait a while and try to get them super cheap and use them like u said

Using it for storj as I have some extra storage to spare and CPU for aeon at the moment.

just stick to gpu mining you guys!

Now I try to mine these, KOTO, YTN, Zoin. Have predecessors have better suggestions?

magi is another CPU mining only coin if you guys want to check it out.

I have a Coffeelake I7 8700k @5.0 GHz and I'm mining Zcoin (Lyra2z) @ 1250 khs.That is more than my 1060 6G. When at stock clocks with turbo, my cpu does about 985 khs. This is good for around $1.60 a day.

And how much do you pay for electricity ? :)
It is not worth it. Forget it if your electricity is nnot free.

Have you received anything from Storj? I ran their software for half month but didnt receive anything at all.

I'll do mining on monero, 3 personal computer with i3 on our office with free electricity. I want to make my own rig but gpu in our country is too high and I only working here so bad idea to set-up my own rig. I got 120 H/s on 3 core i3, it's not bad.

Hi all Guys..
BBP it's very nice to mining by CPU and still easy to mine today, I suggest it.

Cryptonight-lite coins can be more profitable than cryptonight with same CPU.

Hash rates are 3x-4x higher than cryptonight.
