Title: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: PunkAs on January 24, 2012, 10:42:44 PM Can this be done, what miner should i use?
i7 processor if that matters. Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: jake262144 on January 24, 2012, 10:57:41 PM No. Really. See here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=44.0).

Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: jake262144 on January 24, 2012, 11:02:57 PM Why waste electricity on Litecoins? As a crypto currency branching from and directly competing with Bitcoin (Litecoin has no protocol-level advantage over Bitcoin whatsoever) Litecoin is next to worthless.
The current rate of exchange is 2000 LTC for one BTC. Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: PunkAs on January 24, 2012, 11:34:31 PM Thanks for the replys guys, I will actually try and cpu mine some LTC
since its still relatively feasible. Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: PunkAs on January 25, 2012, 02:56:27 PM Got my first 50 block of LTC, not worth much atm but still sweet.

LTC may be the best thing to mine solo, but why are you doing it instead of a pool?Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: PunkAs on January 25, 2012, 04:10:01 PM Because I tend towards individualism more than collectivism,
also getting a 50 is sweeter than small steady payouts, i probably will join a pool once litecoin gets bigger and more competative. Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000?

Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: PunkAs on January 26, 2012, 12:05:07 AM Ill be supporting it.
Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: jCole on January 26, 2012, 01:01:42 AM Ill be supporting it. Its going to cost more in electricity then you will ever make back, its not worth it.Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: _ellipsis on January 26, 2012, 02:19:58 PM CPU mining is a waste of time right?
Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: PunkAs on January 26, 2012, 02:55:59 PM CPU mining is a waste of time right? With bitcoin yes, but litecoin is optimized for CPU so GPU mining is impossible currently.Title: Re: GPU mine on an intel hd graphics 3000? Post by: Gabi on January 26, 2012, 03:22:15 PM Mine litecoins, sell them for bitcoins->profit with CPU
