Post by: arun483 on November 28, 2013, 05:45:35 AM
Hey guys i am planning to mine and i have AMD Radeon HD 8650M/8670M Dual GPU (1 GB DDR3 dedicated)
and I have a couple of questions regarding that
How much MH/s can i get with that?
Will it be good to mine with it?
Which is the best or profitable pool for newbie miners?
I am using GUI Miner is it good?
Regards

I don't know much about your graphics card. Take a look here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison.

Are you mining for fun? You will mine less than $1 per day and electricity will probably cost more than that (assuming that you pay normal rates for electricity).

8650M means it's a laptop. You'll get terrible hashrates and you'll fry the laptop.

Well I tried to mine with my PC too. But it puts too much stress on PC I don't recommend it not that it's not profitable but because it can ruin your PC that kinda happened to me  :-[. In any case you can try do it but don't leave your computer up for too long and don't run it on full capacity. At least that's my opinion in this. :)

8500 MHash/s is not high at all. You will hardly find a block. Better look for others alternatives than minning :)
