Laptops are not for mining, not at all. You're gonna end up with a burnt laptop if you try to mine any crypto-currency with it, or at least you're not gonna get any profit. Get any average CPU along with a good GPU and mine Ethereum/Monero using the GPU.

Where you buy GPU? Will it give profit at the end after combining all the cost like electricity etc etc

Edit: Can you give me a specific Specification of a GPU that will work great

I suggest you buy a Desktop PC if you want to mine and make sure you buy a good GPU/CPU. You will burn your laptop before making any money and just get in a lost. You can burn Desktop PC's GPU but it's much rarer, but still possible if you mine too much without lefting the PC to rest.

You are good in CPU you can mine with cpu try other software that you can mine with cpu most software in the altcoin section is GPU mining.
I remember one of the tools ethreum miner its just like a command promt. i mined ethereum before but my laptop is low in gpu and its risky to use laptop in mining..

Well I usually buy GPU's from eBay but I must admit they are sometimes very expensive. Cost of electricity varies from place to place. What's the cost of a unit (kWh) on your side? What's your budget for the purchase of GPU? BTW, search in this sub-forums, and you'll be able to find answers to most of your questions regarding the mining with GPU.

This is the best advice. You "can" mine with a laptop using the cpu or maybe the gpu if you have one installed on your laptop,
but it is not advised. Mining produces a lot of heat continuously and laptops are not designed for it. Get a desktop with a decent
power supply and gpu and mine with that. If you also want to mine with a cpu you can get an i7 but a top end cpu is not
required for gpu mining. Make sure you have good air flow and monitor the temperatures.

You might be able to use that unit to mine the new BikerCoin that just launched on June 7th! It uses CPU power using Minergate's platform. However your laptop might not last very long due to the heat it will produce if you use the max settings.

I am using my low grade quad core 2.4 Ghz and am getting an average of 180 coins per day but I am using 90% of my system resources to do it.

Now as the coin is new it is a gamble that the coin wont end up like Dodge that isnt even worth a penny  lol but it could very easily be worth as much as the litecoin is only time will tell.

In the past 3 days I have mined a total of 742.4 BIC using their own pool.

If you do not mind taking a bit of a risk that coin might be the way to go.

This is the best counsel. You "can" mine with a tablet utilizing the cpu or possibly the gpu on the off chance that you have one introduced on your portable workstation, be that as it may, it isn't prompted.
Mining produces a ton of warmth ceaselessly and portable workstations are not intended for it. Get a desktop with a nice control supply and gpu and mine with that. In the event that you likewise need to mine with a cpu you can get an i7 yet a best end cpu isn't required for gpu mining. Ensure you have great wind stream and screen the temperatures.
