hey guys my grandpa built a small datacenter awhile ago for work but now its going un used and he wants to know if it would be good for mining cpu based coins like protoshares.

since i know nothing about cpu mining i was hoping you guys could tell me whether or not its good for mining and maybe how much he would make per day..

here are the specs

6 servers with Dual Quad Core Xeon 2.8ghz


hopefully somebody can tell me whether or not thats good haha since i know nothing about cpu's or cpu mining Smiley

just start mining, see how many coins a day you find, then work out the profitablilty.
Everything else will be a bit of a guess.

It looks like a good set up, but lots of people use cloud mining, so have hundreds of CPUs to mine with.
