I'm currently running on Linux and Windows.

  • For Linux, which is the best?
  • For Windows, which is the best? Huh

SPECS FOR WINDOWS MACHINE:
i5 1.70 ghz
4gb RAM
HD 4000

SPECS FOR LINUX MACHINE:
i3 1.70 ghz
2gb RAM
HD 4000

Thanks in advance. Wink

I wouldn't dare claim it to be the best, but I quite enjoy using MultiMiner for Windows at http://nwoolls.github.io/MultiMiner/

It's easy because it allows you to set multiple pools; so that if one fails it jumps to the other one. It 'auto-updates', looks nice and is relatively easy to use. The only thing missing is the miner arguments which you'll have to dig up for your GFX-card. Note that MultiMiner seems to run solely on GPU (based on BFGMiner if I am not mistaken)

For CPU based mining on Linux/Unix console you can use
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/

CPU based mining is slow (If you can use GPU) for example: 8 threads on i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz
give you about 46-50 khash/s.

Best GPU cards compute about 800 khash/s
