Probably monero... Which CPU you have?

[Ctstrphy]

I have a low-end laptop right now. I have an Acer Aspire ES1-431 Laptop with 2GB memory Windows 10. I am not really tech savvy but I think its worth the shot.

Even with free electricity, you're wasting your time. The only chance you have of making any profit is from long term appreciation. In which case trading would be more effective than trying to mine with with a low end cpu and competing against the hash from GPU's, ASICS and botnets.

[andrew2k]

Currently, the best one seems to be Aeon (2x to 4x higher hashrates when mining Aeon compared to mining Monero due to the cryptolight algorithm). You can still mine Monero and other cryptonotes, it's still profitable even with the power-hungry FX series.

It's also possible that I've overlooked some golden nugget for CPU mining, I'm curious what others might have to say.

[ETFbitcoin]

Some altcoin mining with CPU such as Monero still profitable if you have modern CPU which have high performance, low TDP or have good price/performance.
But with your low-end laptop, you can't make profit even with free electricity and hardware.

[Ctstrphy]

Well, comparing it to claiming on BTC faucets, is it worth it? I have traded and lost about 200k sats and don't want to dive again until I learn trading. I have tried gambling too and I lost everything I won.

[andreas911]

I have a Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3,40 GHz (x64) and 16 GB ram

I'm going to guess that you would get around 250 hashrate in Monero, maybe less. Somewhere close to $120 a year at $0.10/kw/h power costs. Download the Nicehash Miner program and let it run the benchmark for your CPU to find the exact hashrate to expect. www.nicehash.com

[Drawde]

VeriumReserve (VRM) is a decent CPU-only mining coin you might want to take a look at. I've been mining it the last couple of weeks. There is a pool and client downloads at http://vrm.poolinat0r.com.

[szafa]

I am not fan of the cpu minning.

[alex9919]

I have a low-end laptop right now. I have an Acer Aspire ES1-431 Laptop with 2GB memory Windows 10. I am not really tech savvy but I think its worth the shot.

So, with a low-end laptop you can't do anything. You have to buy a new rig with ryzen 5 or 7 (depending on your budget) if you want to mine a CPU coin, however amd launched the rx 5xx serie that is only a rebrand of the 4xx, the price of rx 4xx will decrease significantly why don't you consider also GPU mining?

[Vaccinus]

Hi,

ist there a coin profitable to mine with cpu?

Thanks

there are only verium and zoin not much else, and i think there is also magi but was delisted recently from poloniex, and without an exchange will die quickly, cpu coin are always very bad and not recommended, but you cna build now a good cpu rig and have some profit, check the verium thread there is a guy with a cpu rig

[fullzero]

I have started cpu mining XMR on my 6x rigs while the GPUs mine ZEC.

Can you say the components and the hash rate?

[Ctstrphy]

What's the difference between CPU and GPU mining? I thought it was just ASIC and CPU mining..

[Ayers]

Hi,

ist there a coin profitable to mine with cpu?

Thanks

i can give you soem coins which are profitable with cpu, but you need many cpu ro cpu rig to mien them with good return, these coins are magi verium, zoin and monero, all the other are not cpu friendly, but be aware of botnet that are plague for this coins and quickly ruin your profit

29.1 H/s 6 hour average XMR @ nanopool ( at current rates with 10c kwh electric the cpu will generate $16 profit a year, and roi on its own in ~3 years )  Note cpu mining hashrate is all over the place (less frequent shares); so it takes a while to get a good idea of a cpu's average hashrate.

2655.4 Sol/s 6 hour average ZEC @ nanopool ( all 6x cards cc200, mc400, powerlimit 125 on nvOC )

using 880 watts at the wall

Currently only running +cpu on a few of my rigs, but all have been stable for over 24 hours; so I will deploy +cpu mining on all my rigs tonight / tomorrow.  I have an i3 on the way to test as well.

If all my rigs are stable with +cpu mining I will add it as an option to the next version of nvOC.  Also looking for alternative cpu mined coins to try; if anyone has any recommendations.

Isn't mining counterproductive both with cpu and gpu? I've noticed sometimes that GPU's hashrate decrease if CPU is mining.

[fullzero]

It depends primarily on what OS you are using.  If you using windows it will never be a good idea.  On linux, depending on how many cores and what intensity you are using; and the gpu mining client you are using, it is sometimes ok.  Granted the resulting hashrate from cpu mining as such is nothing like that from all out cpu mining.

[homeminerhomeminer]

Solo-mining low-value, low-difficulty altcoins on an i7... likely to get any coins?

I'd be hoping that if I keep switching and holding on to as many coins as possible, one might take off in value.

Stupid or not?

[bobben2]

CPU mining - three approaches:
1. CPU mine a coin the first few week of its existence if no GPU miner exists to mine it.  Get in early is key.  Monitor the ANN-section for any new coins and consider mining those just launched.
2. If you believe that a coin will go to the moon within the next few months/year then you can mine it with cpu.
3. Find a coin that is cpu-mineable only - like XMG (Magi) - and mine it.
If I were to start cpu mining now, I would mine XMR or BCN with xmr-stak-cpu miner in Linux (with huge pages enabled - this keeps my cpus warm during winter :-)).

[YaYMiner]

Myriad Coin - using the Yescrypt algo is good for cpu right now. I mostly trade to make profits but mine myriad to make up for any loses, if any, i would have in a day. I switch between Aeon and Myriad using two laptops and two tablets with free electricity and can make some good coin.

You can also try Coin Magi, but recently i found it not to be as profitable.

Zcoin - is another coin that is mine-able with cpu. I used to mine this coin about 6 months ago and would get killer profits from it. It is now getting taken over by GPU miners but it can still be mined on CPU.

BitSend - Uses Xevan algo. Isn't as profitable as Aeon or Myriad but can still be mined on a CPU.

Aeon - Uses Cryptonight-light which is faster than the regular cryptonight algo. I like mining Aeon because it seems to never slow down or get taken over by GPU miners. It is always a consistent profit.

GlobalBoostY - another yescrypt coin but i have recently seen a falling out from the community with this coin.

Hope this helps.

Will i make anything if i used my AMD X4 860k, i get about 115 hashes on AEON.... using Minergate.
Please tell me, if for  VRM i can actually make profit ?
Thank you

Hi YaYMiner, what CPU are we talking about here?
I get about 115 AEON hashes.... when i use Minergate ....
will i be useless at those coins u mention above ?

[mini miner]

Probably monero... Which CPU you have?

acer aspire 5742z 2gb ram pentium dual core 2.6ghz processor

[Fantum]

Aeon is good for cpu mining. Especially when you use multiple computers. Make sure you use linux as you'll get a five times better hashrate for some reason. I would warn against using the minergate program, it is easy to set up, and the hashrate isn't too much less but good luck getting a withdrawl from them. I had mined a bit with minergate and still waiting for a withdrawl for 2 months.

You might also check out Nexus. CPU mining is not that profitable anymore but can be done, and the price of Nexus is expected to rise.

[coinzoid]

Which coin would you recommend for i7 4790k? I have a noctua cooler so I can overclock my cpu if needed. I'm also running gpu mining on this system.

[gustavopaolini]

well, I have like 25 old-ish celeron cpus.. and pretty much free electricity.. could I take a shot a XMR? I'm already mining ETH and going to start mining ETC on 2 GPU rigs.. but I got those CPUs laying around with nothing to do..

[automobile]

Any suggestions what to mine on a pair of XEON's E5-2699V4? (No Cinebench, please!)

[Elder III]

Try Monero; you can even use Nicehash for it, so it's super easy as well as being the biggest CPU centric coin by a long shot. Also, AEON is very profitable right now and BitSend is a good CPU coin that I think has a nice future ahead of it. There are other coins that can be mined with CPU, but those are the only 3 I have tried that I liked for CPU mining myself.

[Smarty14392]

You can mine the following coins with your CPU/LAPTOP :


XMR (monero)
BCN (bytecoin)
FCN (fantomcoin)
XDN (digitalnote)


You can also mine Ethereum, AEON, DASH and Quazarcoin, but i dont think they will give you any profit.
The above coins may also not give you any profit depending on your CPU.

[automobile]

It seems like XMR mining is better with GPU... Maybe I'm mistaken, but one Radeon HD7990 gives over 1000 h/s (this opinion is based on this post). For example 3 x HD7990 could easily beat 2 x E5-2699. And 3 x HD7990 are MUCH cheaper than 2 x E5-2699...
So, it seems like XMR is definitely a GPU coin...

[carlo_0000]

if you wanna do mining with cpu and gpu

it s actually very simple, i don't know why people never think about this
it s actuality oblivious for me

just put your cpu miner in task manager to idle (or at lease lower than normal)  and it can use all your cores
and it won't slow down your gpu's

Is it possible to run CPU mining on a VMWare with Windows Server 2012. I have 4 x i7 cores with 8 GB ram and 80GB disk space running on top of a VM. Was researching earlier about Digibyte but haven't gotten it to work yet. Any other coin recommendations that are CPU friendly and are profitable to mine? Should I go for XMR or are there better alt coins that are ok to run on a CPU? Thanks!

[YaYMiner]

I did some looking around and there is a couple more coins that are CPU only. I've been mining them for the past two days and have made the most off off them that any other CPU coin i have tried. Before Zcoin was the most profitable and i was lucky to get in before GPU miners took it over. Granted these two coins are not like Zcoin, they do use Zerocoin technology.

Zoin Coin - Uses its own version of the Lyra2z algo called Lyra2zoin (Lyra2z330). Only thing about this coin is that it isn't very popular, but that could be a good thing for us CPU miners.

Hexx Coin - Uses the same algo as Zoin and has recently had a community take over to try to bring it back to life. The difficulty is real low with this coin right now so you can make decent profits with it.

Both are listed on Cryptopia.

[crazyivan]

Using Nicehash will tell you whats your best algo option. Their software checks profitability of your hardware and lets you mint the most profitable coin. Other then that, the rest is pure speculation.

[carlo_0000]

there is also myriad on yescript but did not do the math if profitable or not

I was able to run XMR for a week in a VM producing 80-200 H/s (Win Server 2012 64bit, 16Gb memory & 8 CPU threads reaching 100%). It was running 24x7 but it will still take me around 2 months to reach .03 XMR. I decided to stop it. Will research and try Zoin Coin next week.

[carlo_0000]

8 thread  is not always the best for 8 cores


i tested on fx8300  the best results where 7 thread  355h/s average   6 or 8 are slower

it s actually not bad   2 cpu = some better than r9 380  (price, speed and W are close)   or some worse than an rx470

as there are no gpu on market available  i bought  4x  8300's   (was running athlon 160u on my rings)
if monero price not get up need at lease 7 month to pay back

[enzeperix]

Hello . This thread got my attention as i think i can get 4 CPUS Xeon E7-4870 for roughly $1300. Though i don't know if i can find a mobo to put those beasts on . Do you guys think it is proffitable to mine something with such a setup ? 40 cores / 80 threads at 2,4 GHz / 2,8GHz with turbo boost . power consumption would be around 700 W i think .

[carlo_0000]

find the speed of you cpu and do the math

but i think it s not really profitable, unless you have free electricity
probably need 10-12 month to pay back your setup


i i change the cpu of my rings,  but you need to buy hole computer

[cola-jere]

If you have a CPU only and a stable internet that you can leave for 24x7, I would recommend that you just do Proof of Stake (PoS). PoS doesn't overburden your CPU and internet connection as well. Research on Stratis, Radium and DeepOnion for PoS. Only downside is you need to purchase the coins that you need to stake.

I've tried CPU mining Monero thru a 10Mb internet line, using even the cheapest and fastest pool and it still won't profitable. It will take 3 months before I will be able to transfer .03 XMR to my wallet It also overworks the computer and consumes the bandwidth.

good point Pos are more profitable if you have a good stable internet instead of buying expensive equipment better to use the money to buy alts which have a big possibilities to increase its value in such time, like mate said stratis can be consider and i think eth will also will turn into Pos though still a
rumors and no finals statement yet.

[yerfei]

For CPU  only  try XMR or KRB coins , but the best option will be  Winminer , it will select automatically algo option for your hardware and select the most profitable coin.

Verium is a CPU only minable coin.

[ZenFr]

it s actuality oblivious for me

just put your cpu miner in task manager to idle (or at lease lower than normal)  and it can use all your cores
and it won't slow down your gpu's

This is a very goos and simple advice :-).

The problem is that the majority of miners RIG are build over the cheapests Celerons and those Celerons with a low priority in the task manager are mining quasi nothing with XMR (and a lot of others coins : too slow).
If you want CPUmine with your RIG, don't buy a so cheap Celeron (choose a Core i3 ot higher).

[dominguero]

The CPU mining are very dependent of the L3 cache.

Monero for example need 2mb for thread.. and Celerons, I3... usually have very small L3 cache.

[pinoycash]

I tried CPU mining (XMR and BCN) for the past 6 hours on minergate. all i can say is, not worth the time and waste of electricity. Im using my Own Personal PC, AMD APU A8 7600 and im only getting 40 - 44 H/s using 50% load on my CPU. i dont know why my Built in GPU R7 is not recognized by minergate or my PC is not really design for CPU mining.

[jedigeiss]

Well let's see what new coins maybe bringing for possibilities.. the current known ones are mineable but just do not bring any revenue with a cpu...

[carlo_0000]

depend what cpu

fx8300 oc is actually not bad 2 = bit faster than an r9380   if you keep the monero to sell next year or so  definitely profitable then

[dark_city]

I've been mucking around with different coins in MPH to yield more bling and seem to default back to XZC for CPU. Although the recent jump in difficulty was not the most interesting things to see. Turned out a group of individuals found a way to manipulate with Amazon AWS service. Go figure!

So with current 5-5.5k difficulty and 2.3 MH/s, MPH is rewarding the user with 0.25 XZC/Day (which at the time of writing is 2.29 USD).

To compare the above with others while having the same CPU setup:
Grosetlcoin: 200-500 difficulty, 3.5 GRS/Day, 0.43 USD
Zclassic: ~40k dificulty, 0.18 ZCL/Day, 0.24 USD
Granite: so bad ... wrong algo
and so on...

Even without patiently waiting for larger statistics/data sets to analyse XZC is a good option. Zcoin is officially deemed as CPU-friendly anyway.

If you are now wondering is mining with CPU profitable - no.

[Apollo 11]

Hey folk! I have been looking into buying a cheap mining rig

I found a cheap rx 470 and bought it right away. Planning to mine Ubiq with the GPU. To offset investment costs I went looking for a very cheap second hand decent pc. I found a few, with different cpu's and price ranges

The i7 930 (cheapest) (idle system power 112W*, peak system power 240W**, does have 2nd PCI-e slot on mobo so I can connect more vid cards if i can get my hands on some)
FX 6100 (more expensive, don't have details on mobo yet,idle system power 99W, peak system power 225W, 220MHS on monero)
FX 8150 (most expensive, dont have details on mobo yet, idle system power 100W, peak system power 252W, 330MHS on monero)

* +** idle and peak system power numbers are plucked from benchmarking sites to benchmark the CPU real load through socket meter

I pay 0.1799$ per/kwh

So is CPU mining combined with GPU mining unprofitable in these cases?
Should I not try mining with these CPU's and go for the cheapest option, the i7 930 or for the little more expensive, but lower idle power FX 6100.
Or should i try to mine monero for example on my 6100 or 8150, while using the GPU to mine UBIQ?

Orrrrr should i keep looking and find a cheap celeron with a tdp of 35W.

[yerfei]

I have a Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3,40 GHz (x64) and 16 GB ram

You can try Winminer to see if it works for you

Hi,

ist there a coin profitable to mine with cpu?

Thanks

Dont why you guys even discussing this but CPU mining wont be profitable now onwards.
Not altcoin not bitcoin nothing can be mined with it having profits. You can profit or should i mention you can hope to profit only if you have completely free electricity and cold room. To be honest technically everything is advanced now and when you mine you have to compete the market who are mining at the rate of hundred times more than you.

Just being honest guys, have you ever thought of this practically, all thr hash rates and electricity bills, thr damage to your CPU etc . There are many more stuff involved which shall be taken in consideration

For cpu this is not the time for sure.

[saga-crypto]

Verium is a CPU only minable coin.

I noticed this coin last week, never tried out yet. The price is good at USD2++, algorithm uses Scrypt^2. How's the ROI?

I'm currently using 2 free cores of my mining machine to mine BCN at minergate, I know it is not worth, but just mined to keep. I'm curious to know if any other good cpu coin in 2017?

Also Mining BCN on Miners gate with a Spare Core you never know how the coin might increase in the Future

Hi,

You can do Merged Mining Dogecoin and Litceoin.

cpu mining is profitable same as gpu

as i mentioned before the fx8300 (around 110euro)  does 350-400hs  on monero   if you have 2 of them you been faster than an rx470 but with a bit more power
and at current gpu prices it s cheaper for same performance

an if you keep your monero and sell when price get up (like now) it s definitely profitable

i had athlon 160u on my rings, i change them all for fx8300  it s like i have a hole ring more now

Yes, this is what in my mind. Since BCN dev has returned and development looks quite active, and yet this is the first coin that use cryptonight, may put some hope on it.

It is then always profitable to mine small altcoins and sell them once they get high. CPU mining is only profitable for mining monero and that too is hard these days i guess. You can mine any other coins whicj has the lowest difficulty and have profit by selling it once it is high. It usually requires a lot of time.

monero to hard lol ?  if it s to hard for cpu it s also to hard for gpu (fx8300 = rx560)

i change all my athlon 160u  for  fx8300  (8 of them) it s bit faster than having 4 x 470's , just doing fine it was a smart thing to do
get money back faster that i though , i sell my monero when price get up

What about using the new Ryzen processors?

What about using the new Ryzen processors?

They do very well at CPU mining, easily the best CPU miners aside from server grade Xeons etc. With a Ryzen 1700/1700X/1800X you can expect to get 600+ Mh/s with Monero and it does well in many other coins too.

My bad, I meant to type H/s but did Mh/s out of habit from other coins. :p

problem with Ryzen  it s maybe faster but far to expensive compared to the fx series, also i have am3+ motherboard so

I mine Monero.
With this CPU I get ~504.4 H/s running xmr-stak-cpu with 12 threads(12 seems to give me the highest hashrate + hugepages enabled):

Same hashrate for SUMOcoin and I think it gave me double of these values when I mined Aeon.
These are pretty expensive machines, though with AES... I just happen to have them.
Other than that I have a rig of 6 mixed cards.

[fr4nkthetank]

Yeah I do VRM, but I havent checked new coins in a while.  It was mining 40cents a day off a g3258 pentium, so not too shabby but still pretty low.  CPU coins always get a bad rap due to botnets.

[saga-crypto]

I am mining biblepay with my cpu. Also Intense coin (ITNS) is new and can be mined with CPU. Actually both the coins are new and not many miners mine those.

biblepay is doing good. Although Intense coin is a new coin but it uses cryptonight algorithm and it is able to mine by GPU too, whereas biblepay is cpu only coin with new algorithm.

[alani123]

With a laptop it's not worth mining, and probably never was either. The heat is just too much for a laptop to handle and the punishment the battery could take does more damage that you'd ever make. PC CPUs can earn you some pennies though. My FX-8350 can mine around 0.6$ worth of CryptoNight coins a day with Nicehash's miner.

Riecoin is pretty good if you have just have an average CPU.

If you have Xeon e5 v3-v4 with a large cache then XMR will be more profitable that RIC.

[Jdope]

There's zoin coin, i think you can mine it with a cpu but i have no idea how much you'll get, if you have a xeon cpu just download the miner and fire it up, shouldn't be expensive to try.

[feelin19]

FX-6300:
1) OC to 4.2GHz (when max. boost in stock was is 4.1GHz)
2) large pages
3) no_prefetch - true
~300h/s (stable 295-297, sometimes going crazy 320 ) on cryptonight.xmr via NiceHashMiner Legacy v1.8.1.1
just search conf file in nicehashminer folder and edit it

[murzame]

Does someone has more info about sumocoin?

[mrtrevorphilly]

Does someone has more info about sumocoin?

Yes, you can mine SUMO on CPU as well. Look at my post above what hashrate I get with those CPUs.
It's the same algo(CryptoNight) as Monero.

All CryptoNight based coins. Aeon, Sumo, Monero, Iridium, Charnacoin.
And then also ZEC/zcash.

not known to all coins are profitable.

Not bad to get 300h/s for your old amd cpu. I have tried to get dual xeon x5650 to mine cryptonight, but I got max 200h/s only, this cpu is not cryptonight friendly.

[SwaveyMane]

I tried CPU mining (XMR and BCN) for the past 6 hours on minergate. all i can say is, not worth the time and waste of electricity. Im using my Own Personal PC, AMD APU A8 7600 and im only getting 40 - 44 H/s using 50% load on my CPU. i dont know why my Built in GPU R7 is not recognized by minergate or my PC is not really design for CPU mining.

im using that same pc you have an hp pavillion with the spectre r7 graphics 2809mb of gpu cores. on board.

Can you guys share if what script are good to mine using CPU and intel GPU i have intel express gpu in my laptop and i would like to use while im browsing here because i am online 14 hours a day while doing other activity online..
Hope someone can gives me because some of my friends also wanted to mine with their pc and i would like to teach him for cpu mining..

i have already a small mining rig and use nicehash but only support amd and Nvidia..

[patofet]

I think that the cpu are very expensive in front of the h/s that they have

[sundownz]

I am buying Xeon X5660 CPUs for my refurb HP Z400 machines (I use these as a base for my miners)... they have a pretty nice hash-rate for about 20 bucks per CPU on E-Bay.

Currently I am doing Intense Coin on most of my CPUs -- from which I don't know what return I am getting yet -- but also m7m (MAGI) seems promising... should be able to pay off the X5660 CPUs in 30-60 days based on the ZPOOL profit predictions for m7m so I have pushed a few of my CPUs over to it.

Don't go with his opinion you will not be able to get the profit atleast you need to bear the electricity cost and your computer will hangs up when you using all the core for mining. If your pc GPU enabled also that will not be good to make profit and all.

Even for altcoin mining also GPU mining will be good not a CPU mining.

good cpu is same profitable than gpu  and  WTF would the computer hang ??  it s because you not smart enough
you can use all the available core, just need to run the app  at cpu idle or at lease lower than normal priority
but on amd 8 core 7 thread get same speed than 8   same for  my 6 core 5 is fine too (little less than 6)

and 2 x fx8300 does the same speed than an rx470 (claymore 9.7) but little more power

Nice move! Just like having everything free for you to use. However, so far, what has it been like cause from the look of things, I am not sure CPUs can really give you something much unless you are just going to be sticking with the coin for just the value later on which seems nice too since you are apparently doing all the operation for free.

[crypto_hazo]

I am curious if CPU is worth it myself a friend of mine and I are about to starting doing business together and he works for a company that is literally throwing away 2 Blade chassis with 30 CPUs each. I don't know the CPUs they are using but I do know these chassis were in a Citrix environment. We are considering putting these devices in a colocation (because I have some Asics I am putting there anyway) and thinking would it be worth it to mine with these CPUs? Just wanted to get others opinion.

Even for altcoin mining also GPU mining will be good not a CPU mining.

The main problem in mining is the problem of electricity rate because of the high utility bills you are not need to cpu because if you will use cpu then it will charge you high electricity bill which will not good for your profit if you want to do mining of altcoin then the best option for you is GPU. It will give you more profit.

[J1980]

Biblepay is still good for mining it'seems,  and it is noted at c-cex (rare cpu only coin)
And it makes you feel good because it supports poor orphans  (kids)


Probably woud never mined a cristian coin with a name like biblepay but the Dev is actually really doing his best and the support for the orphans is a really nice touch.
Just check it out ;-)

[flip4flop]

I am deciding between an I5 6500 and an I5 7500 same price but I have heard while the 7500 is obviously faster its apparently louder and has had issues which is why the price is the same as the 6500.  Can either of these even mine effectively? I will be mining GPUs as well and that is my main focus but if I could mine some Monero every now and then with the CPU I would be open but if its not worth it I will probably just get the 6500.

[pokoloko]

I have a similar case as antonio88s, in my work i have PC with i5-6500 and electricity for free. I use minergates and give me about 75-70 H / s. Although I have set up using 4 cores but the processor is at 83%. Can you advise me how to use the program better? or how to set it up? or what program I should use ? I will be very grateful. BTW Im mining XMR.

[ethereumhunter]

Hi,

ist there a coin profitable to mine with cpu?

Thanks

if you can not just cpu, but other devices such as vga more important to mine coin, coin example that can be obtained from mine cpu (btc, eth, and many more) , it is better to learn first a suitable device for mining in order to get a high income , you can see it here:
https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator

if we don't have high end computer, then we can not mining with the good result because it will make our computer get hot and in the long time our computer will get damage. its better to buy gpu or vga card like gtx 1050ti and then we add into our computer then we can start mining. but we need to calculate how much our electricity fee because this is the important thing that we must do so we know how much we can take profit from mining.

I agree mining efficiency could not be achieved if we don't have reliable hardware to use with the mining operations. That's why its encourage to invest good mining equipment's in order to achieve profitable earnings.

VeriumReserve (VRM) is a decent CPU-only mining coin you might want to take a look at. I've been mining it the last couple of weeks. There is a pool and client downloads at http://vrm.poolinat0r.com.

How much have you mined with a standard computer of this coin? The circulation is still very low. Great potential

I have 434h/s with Ryzen 1700x @ stock on xmr

only ?  that is not much for such expensive cpu
if i push my fx8300 above 4.4ghz id does also that speed  for only 1/4 price of the ryzen
i run it at 4.1ghz for 400h/s  going down to 385 when i use the computer

verium is very hard to mine i gave up

It should be more like 634 for a Ryzen 1700x if Overclocked to 4.0 ghz and with locked pages enabled (requires Win 10 Pro, not an option on Home version). That's what I have in my personal workstation and it can do 630 towards 650 on the Nicehash benchmark.

CPU mining why not?

Because the network difficulty is quite high now.

well I'll give another vote for aeon! mine it, it you have 4 cores CPU, with proper setting, it will be running in 50% of load when mining
the cryptonight-lite version of AEON algo is more power efficient so your cpu do not consume to much energy
with i5 like 6400 or something similar you'll get about 400-600 h/s
it will give you like 0,5 aeon per 2 days I guess.
so do not sell it, wait. once it will pump, say once in 2-3 month sell and earn x3 or x5 more profit

[AmXProX]

Can you still mine using your CPU power?

[shawn995]

I have a similar case as antonio88s, in my work i have PC with i5-6500 and electricity for free. I use minergates and give me about 75-70 H / s. Although I have set up using 4 cores but the processor is at 83%. Can you advise me how to use the program better? or how to set it up? or what program I should use ? I will be very grateful. BTW Im mining XMR.

There are a lot of sources from which you can get information about bitcoin on social media like facebook,twitter,telegram etc. these are the best resources for getting information about bitcoin.
You can also used bitcoin forum for asking qustions about bitcoin.

Any links to configs for Aeon ?

[JungleOnion]

ryzen cpu's are beasts for cpu mining.

[Proficiency]

Great post!

[J4ever]

I don't think it can be profitable, even in a along run with free electriscity

[thegrey]

you get some from this one, par with aeon I'd say
3 laptops with 2-3 years or more old i7 gave near 1 bismuth a day.
They are only dual core, but i set them on 4 threads, seemed to work way better on that coin. Also set down the nonce time.
Not really worth it, but pays for its own electricity at least, and you learn something in the process.

[earlybirdly]

Thanks for all the input. I have a Intel (6) Core i7 5820K and my hash-rate is about 250 h/s mining Monero with Monero Spelunker and a setting of 7 threads. Setting 7 threads gave me the highest hash-rate while testing different threads. I am a beginner so I might be doing things wrong.

I will try out AEON mining as well, as mentioned by some users in this thread. Currently the network is synching. To bad AEON has no GUI like Monero yet.

[Emerge]

why doesnt exist any profitable CPU mining coin?

I get 1550h/s with my dual xeon X5650 

2150 H/s with a Ryzen 1700X @ 4.0 ghz --- A Threadripper CPU would be about double that. I was sorely tempted to get one of them for my workstation, but aside from mining, I don't really need 32 threads so I stuck with my 8c/16t Ryzen instead. Those Ryzen CPUs are some of the best value I've ever had in a PC.

hi iam newbie on mining and iam mining monero on 15 different computers with i3,i5,i7 various different cpus
can you recommend me some mining pool and configs

you should mine on miningpoolhud? it's a good pool for me in a long time, you can try it!

Now, i'm not mining by CPU, i've changed to ASIC. Maybe in the future, you will use ASIC or GPU like me

you mining AEON with asic ? are you sure mate, how come aeon can mining with asic, is there any asic machine for mining aeon
now im very curious about this, why im not update with this

i already ordered 2 pieces of d3 november 20-30 batch and i think iam pretty much screwed up 
i paid 1700$ for one and 3400$ total but i have free electricity

I am choosing the middle of an I5 6500 Furthermore a I5 7500 same value Anyhow i bring got notification same time those 7500 may be clearly quicker its Obviously louder Furthermore need required issues which is the reason the value is the same Similarly as the 6500. Camwood whichever for these Indeed going mine effectively? i will be mining GPUs and also blacks What's more that is my fundamental keep tabs Be that Assuming that i Might mine exactly Monero each from time to time with those cpu i might a chance to be open Anyway though its not worth it i will Presumably just get the 6500.

Hello, 2150 H/s is it on a monero with 1 processor Ryzen 1700x?
what settings did you apply? how much on a monero does it give out on average after overclocking?
