But SHA-256 doesn't make sense because it is too weak compared to the power that needs. So only scrypt I recommend you.

It is not possible to mine XMR with ASIC script miner.

If you already have a PC with AES New Instructions, then you can mine. Do not buy extra bits to mine only. If you have spare cash, buy the coin directly.
