GPU mining is pointless at the current difficulty ..
You can either buy an ASIC Miner for a lot of money, or you can use cloud-Miner such as cex.io

Topic: best OS for bitcoin mining? (Read 1089 times)
If you fancy a GUI, use Windows.
If you're experienced with Linux, Linux would be the best.
Make sure you're not mining on CPU / GPU for Bitcoins else it'll be useless.

aight so if I mine with linux i cant mine on cpu or gpu , ammm what should i mine on?
You can mine with either your gpu or cpu in linux. I think AuroraHF meant mining bitcoin without an ASIC is pointless
Minepeon and raspberry pi?

I think it Will be windows. For best mining performance you will need the best drivers for your GPS, which are at the moment only for windows.
not true. up to date linux drivers are available from AMD and incredibly easy to install.
linux is the way. DO NOT use OpenSuSe. I use it and the biggest issue with suse is that some of the dependencies for various coins are hard as hell to find.
I suggest Arch Linux or Ubuntu for mining purposes. Use ubuntu if you've never run linux before.

Anyone know this info?
1.can you recommend good mining software(program) like guiminer but something else maybe?
2.and by the way how do i set gpu via dedicated server?
Please I need this info

Yeah, some linux distro. The less system resources it takes, the better! But you're a bit late for bitcoin mining. Why not try some alt-coin?
why i am too late for bcoin mining?
according to calculations with 50ghz i should make 1 btc/month
Sure, you might break even, and maybe even make some profit, but that won't be much. But if you decide to mine it's good for the network though.
so the alt coins what they are?
Alternative coins. If you want to use an ASIC you have to stick to the sha-256 coins for example TerraCoin (same algorithm as Bitcoin). Then you have script coins, with Litecoin as the biggest and feather coin and such things. You can't mine these with ASIC miners, so you have to use GPU. Your best shot is to find some scrypt-coin with low difficult and mine these. It's still risky though.

1.Yeah but what if I rent 3 dedicated servers, 16ghz each and I would pay for all 3 servers like 130e per month and I dont have to pay any other things like electricity or any other. Would that be possible?

what is alt coin?
as i understand btc coin is this long 0.000000
and alt coins goes after . all 0 ? right?

No, bitcoin has is this long : 0.00000001 btc = 1 satoshi.
Altcoins are other coins like LTC, and so on. They have nothing to do with btc. They are different ...

Which is best of bellow mentioned for btc mining:
CentOS Linux
Debian Linux
Ubuntu Linux
Windows
OS X
CentOS Linux
Debian Linux
Ubuntu Linux
Windows
OS X
Doesn't make any difference since you can only mine with asics now. Not that it made any difference before that anyway

Which linux distro do people use the most?
OS does not really matters, equipment matters ...
