Look don't bother telling me that mining off of a laptop is useless and all that. I know whats best to use and everything, I am just starting to tap into mining and I'm doing it off my laptop. Not looking into making money off of it, I'm just looking into what its all about. My question is, is there anyway I can increase my Hashrate Mhps through my computers settings or anything? any advice on this is helpful. Thanks!

It is positive for You only with free power.  Lips sealed What are Your laptop specs (CPU, RAM, Graphics)?

I only suggest doing ROI math.   It might have a GPU able to mine depending. If not your down to CPU mining.

I know you don't want to hear it, but laptop mining is not the best thing to do.

My laptop is a state of the art ThinkPad and only puts out a whopping 38MH/s... so if you get more than that, consider yourself lucky.

Keyword: Laptop - A very finite and compact computing environment, faster cards are too big for today's laptops.

To save space, they cram multiple critical components on one card.

I run nearly 200 watts for that little hash power and I can't even play my games nor conduct business properly.

The only way to increase hashrate is changing to a newer video card.

Unfortunately, laptops builders often solder the video card and mobo together; making upgrades completely impossible.

The best thing you can do is purchase external video cards but at that rate, look at Bitmain's U3  Grin

Sorry but laptop technology is mainly for extensive business use, and general gaming, not industrial use or expert gaming.

You might get a much higher hashrate on a AlienWare, which are gaming centric laptops.

Happy (mini) Hashing!

PS: Following the Pioneer trail (CPU Mining) is what makes great new miners Wink
PPS: I also said I'd only ever mine with a CPU but now have 6TH/s, it's an addictive hobby...

Sadly he will figure out this about laptops.  It's not just bad for them, it's a very small hash rate.
