Sex coin and pot coin are both at the very very top of my list.  Why?  Because what is better than sex and weed?

It depends on your rig: AMD or Nvidia.
AMD: Ethash (ETH,ETC,UBQ... ) or Cryptonite coins (XMR, ETN...)
NVIDIA: Equihash (ZEC,BTG...)
More like, it depends on your target coin's algorithm to mine.

In addition, are you dedicated to GPU or CPU mining? You have to research the coins you want to mine in order to have an efficient Hashrate using the minimal energy consumption available. Some coins doesn't even getting a lot of benefit from a powerful GPU like Monero/Electroneum unlike when you use the rig for Etherium.

At this time, I think you could consider ETH and some Neoscrypt coins.
May be take a referenec on whattomine.com is also good choice.

I heard that a new CPU COIN  YENTEN is a good one. People told me that start with YENTEN, RIPPLE and DENARIUS.. others are seems difficult to mine with out a GPU rig.

Just use whattomine.com
While that web page is helpful, it does not advise people what to mine with lower cards.

In my opinion, Burst is one of the easiest coins to mine. It takes some time to plot your hard drives, but after that, it's smooth sailing and doesn't really need powerful hardware.

It does. Just look thoroughly. Haven't you seen SUMOKOIN? Still low hashrate, you can mine it with
slower GPUs or CPUs, it has GUI wallet. Very likely the price will rise up in the future.

that need to decide with from what you going to mining how ever i think eth is the best option

I switch between two coins: ETH and ETN.

Ethereum. because Ethereum is one of the fastest growing virtual currencies other than Bitcoin, the digital currency that now dominates the world.

CPU mining is underrated it's underestimated by mining community. GPU rigs are trendy nowadays for dash coin and Ethereum. I am planning to spot a mining farm for one of them. How could I get an effective tutorial for mining?

I was enjoying VERT lately until the halving
I'm now thinking of moving to Musicoin(MUSIC) for the reason of the number of coins you get paid out and betting that a small rise in value will multiply my earnings. I need to do some research on it also.

Zcoin is good if you live in a warm environment
It doesn’t use much power so not much heat will be generated
It isn’t the most profitable coin right now though so less heat sacrifices profit

I should have updated here when I found Ravencoin - hope some of you found it by yourselves as it was possible to get some good numbers of the last few weeks. The project wants to start from no value and work up like Bitcoin did.

Ellaism has been near the top of what to mine the last month. You get the best of both worlds lots of coins and value if you want to sell. Only problem is there are just two exchanges you can sell on Cryptopia or Stocks
