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 :-)).

Fellow miners, get your thens and thans in order and help other forum readers understand what you are writing. Remember the grammar basics: B larger THAN A (comparator operator). If something THEN ....

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.

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. 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 |

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.

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.

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.

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.

Wow, that's a pretty big amount, is that true? Is it just a hoax? It looks like you should provide some proof of your income, which you say 2 $ / day,If it proves maybe I will follow you. |

An AMD Ryzen 1700X @ 4.0 ghz with 2150 H/s can make over $5 a day mining AEON at current prices. https://aeon-pool.com/# --- My i7 6700K does ~615 H/s at stock settings = about $1.50 per day on Aeon. |
