hi everybody,

It's hard to me to make a synthesis with all informations from everywhere.

Say that I own 2 computers,  core2duo + HD7950.

Is it worth mining with my computers or do you think it is now reserved for "professional" with FPGAs or ASICs boards ?


Thanks for your tips.

Emilia

Definitively consider Scrypt mining with HD7950. But what is your electricity cost ?

These computers are in "light" use, so I could say the energy cost is is not a major point.

You would make pennies, if not lose money due to electricity costs.

Use the 7950 to mine scrypt altcoins. Use the other cpu to mine primecoin on ypool.

When mining, your comp will be in high usage and drawing more electricity than iddle.

You may mine for fun to get some coins
