There are many coin I would have suggest for you to mine, but it sems as if your PC processor is not that strong to handle the process you might want to increase the capacity or you buy minning rig. But for now you can start wirh minng Uplexa token their mining pool and earnings is encouraging. That should get you started for the time being
OP's pc processor is not recommended to be used to mine crypto right now. That only waste a lot of time and that will make OP needs to pay more. He can't even get a buck in a day. This time the recommended CPU to mine crypto at least ryzen. But it's still not too strong enough compared with the GPU. That's better to sell his CPU and try to convert it into the GPU. Even second-hand GPU is much better than it. https://www.miningbenchmark.net/cpus.phpthat gives a lot of insight about the profitability of A8

Hi everyone. I'm new to mining and I want to try out GPU mining on my old computer. My PC has a AMD A8-6410 processor up to 2.7 GHz. What coins can I mine with this please?
It is good you are planning of entering into mining because bounties these days are not profitable and relying on it alone will not fetch you anything. Since the PC is not so powerful, you can try mining the new coins since those ones are less complex.

I know ASIC miners have become some what popular and more effective than GPU/CPU miners, but you can try bitcoin gold, zencash and zclassic though it will require more effort to get something more tangible in recent times.
thanks a lot for your input and suggestions. Can you suggest mining pools and mining software that can optimize greater mining earning and PC performance? for the mining pools and you can now try to visit the announcement page of that coin directly and you will find all of mining pools that support those coins. But it much better for you to re consider it again. Mining pools and mining software can't help you to get a lot of optimize the result of your hashrate. The result of your hash depends on your GPU or CPU. what kind of GPU that already installed in your PC? my system makes use of an AMD Radeon 8 GPU. I'm considering just abandoning it for mining alot. I don't care about the hardware.. I just want to dump it to serve some purpose.

I would suggest to not use your GPU to mine any Altcoin, because most miner now have at least 10++ state of the art GPUs. You will got crushed by them and make your mining is worthless. But if you insist, I suggest to mine a good coin not shitcoin.

Try to choose some new fresh projects with good support of cryptocommunity. In the initial stages, mining is much easier to do, especially in the long run. or, as an option, to mine for several days ALL new projects, something will be good

I'm not really good at Mining problems, but I think using a PC processor will only make you lose. right now, there are so many good coins to mine. maybe the suggestion above is very good. if you intend to mine, try to take risks. selling CPUs, and buying GPUs that support Mining will get better. even more so if you can make it in the form of a rig.

Mining on a laptop is a losing business. 1) You will spend time searching for a suitable coin. 2) Your GPU will overheat, which reduces its life. 3) Depending on the region of residence, you will also need to pay electricity bills. Mining on a laptop may be of interest to the enthusiast. For profitable mining, you need modern powerful GPU.

when you mine using the laptop you have then it will make the machine from your laptop damaged and nothing can make a profit when you mine using a laptop, you better build some computers and build a place to do mining such as building a rig or something so it won't damage your laptop and make it a device to monitor your mining machine.

Such a minimal amount of coins your computer can make. In fact most of the computers who don't have a mining hardware can't mine a profitable amount of btc. If you have money to buy a hardware, mining is one good option for you. Although it is really better to mine using special hardware, not all people can buy it as the prices for this stuff are too high. The performance of AMD A8-6410 is not the best one, but BTC can be mined on it if I am not mistaken.

I think your best choice is to mine Monero, Aeon, Bytecoin, Boolberry, Darkcoin, Ducknote, Fantomcoin, Givecoin, Slimcoin and QuazarCoin their are lots of coins to choose form the best one will be Monero

From reading through this thread I got the impression that you need to research and learn before going into anything else. You are having that natural reaction caused by the downfall of your investments. You need to calm down and think this through... your porfolio maybe down now but on crypto things are always on the move. It is difficult to say what would be right because I don't know your situation, but if you want to get into mining, research first... there are people earning good money with mining as they catch the new projects hen they are very yourng, but this presents high risk and requires constant hard work Also, review your portfolio, maybe you have a better portfolio than you think... in terms of crypto, the year is just starting

This CPU was put into production 5 years ago. You can engage in mining coins only for the CPU. But you will not get much profit. Try mining on light varieties of cn algorithms.

You can also include a link, or website, so I can easily go there.

this is by far the best response to my query. I appreciate the time and effort you put in your reply. My portfolio has grown weaker in value this past few months. It's very difficult to HODL rn.

You can mine several coins like GBX, XMR with your computer! But that will be not helpful for sure. Because it can damage your computer's processor or hardware or the revenue will be very low. I would like to suggest staking coins on a computer instead of mining!

Especially when you have seen that the notebook that used by OP can be categorized as old version consider it has used a8 processor and i thought that used the build it GPU. Whatever coin that will be mine and that will never be profitable. An old GPU like 1060 much better than it.

Dogecoin is a coin you can mine with pc. There are diverse cryptocurrencies to mine. yYou will be needing a good hardware and software.

The difficulty of the Dogecoin network is quite high, so mining these coins using the CPU of your computer is a bad idea. If we talk about mining DOGE with video cards, it's better to choose ATI devices
