Scrypt mining uses the power of your GPU (graphics processor) for mining. So, if you have a fairly up-to-date desktop computer you could also plug in a heavy duty graphics card (usually used for gaming) and use that power for mining virtacoin.

http://configmyrig.com/ Thanks for this useful resource. I'll check up and see if I can leave a GPU mining VTA while the others mine ETH + DCR. This is really exciting. I wonder how many VTA would I mine with an AMD Radeon Nano GPU? Is there any estimated hashrate for this one, in order for me to calculate my VTA earnings?
Also, I would be great if sometime in the future we could get a new look and feel of the qt wallet. Just suggesting.
