I was mining since yesterday my first time on LTC, now after 10hours mining i have 0,002 of them on a Suggest diff and max diff of 800 with my NVIDEA  GeForce GT 630 M.

If i keep mining at the same speed I need 5000 hours for just one coin..

Is it because my video card is not good enough ?
And is it possible to mine on the CPU because I have an I7 third generation so I gues this one is a lot faster..

 Huh

Nvidia GPU's are a lot slower than AMD for GPU mining.

Make sure you get the latest version of cudaminer, it should give you a performance boost of at least 20%.

Mining on cpus is pretty power inefficent.

I indeed used a slower miner (cgminer).

But if I look here: https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison

My video card should get; 26,38 kH/s and I got yesterday 29.
Intead of my CPU (Core i7-3720QM) that following the information on that page will get 37.

Or is the information on that page probarly wrong ?

If you are planning to CPU mine, then maybe you should look a little on Quark or Primecoin.

Cryptography is one of the few things you can truly trust.

I assume you are using a laptop (630M GPU)

Watch out for the heat.

Yes indeed it's my laptop because it looks me a little bit crazy to buy a new card if i'm just searching how it works..

I just donwloaded speedfan and it seem's like I run to hot.. 80C to 90C seems the story end here to me  Roll Eyes

@stoetel1 Yes it's because your video card is not good enough and finally yes it's possible to mine using the CPU.
