Can I mine with my PC Specs?

Processor: AMD A10-7700K Radeon R7,10 Computer Cores 4C+6g 3.40 GHz
Installed Memory (RAM): 8.0GB (6.94 GB Usable)
System Type: 64-bit Operating System

Thanks in advance!

Unless you are doing it for fun and to keep some alts that may have prospect in future then I will say it is not going to be worth it. There are still some coins you can easily mine with CPU and then you can look forward to them increasing in value in the future.

That should be your main target cause you won't get so much from it for a start but as time goes on, the coins with good prospects, will get their value shoot up and then you can see yourself swimming in wealth when that time comes and with your specs, I would say ride on. You can just join a mining pool by finding the one with a good review.

yes, you can mine with that spec. mining Altcoins but profit is low, you can think how much will bill electric and how much your profit.

You can with atlcoins that can be mined by the CPU however the profit will be small. Also consider this your CPU runs a 95w TDP(thermal design power) which is very high in today's standards and your CPU will run 24/7 if you mine so you would need to have ample cooling for it and as we all know the AMD A10-7700K runs hot in the long run. If you want to mine using you CPU I would suggest the you upgrade your PC. Go for like an AMD Ryzen 3 1200 a 4 core 4 thread CPU that runs around 65W TDP or if you can go for AMD Ryzen 5 1400 a 4 core 8 thread CPU with the same TDP. Both the CPU are substantially powerful that the AMD A10-7700K. Also you should buy a decent b350 motherboard if you want to overclock.

Yes you can mine with your pc, and by that the processor mining is your best option, but don't expect spectacular incomes, it will help you just as mining experience.

Yes you can, but it will only worth to try if you have cheap electricity, or you will be on very very small profit or even in minus with your bills for electricity

If the question is the possibility, then yes you can!
But come to think of the typical cash-in and cash-out. Compared to the value that you'll earn through mining...
how much of an electricity bill you'll get.

me for example: i use my PC for mining, as i say usually i use electricity not too much and i pay for it about 30$ per month (i have also discount 50%for electricity at night) . Even when i get some coins and i sell them it will be +++for me, electricity will be for free because I will pay for it with this coins! it is much better if i will pay for it from my pocket Grin

also i hope this coins at future will me much more expencive. who knows? i hope))))

By the way, if you really want to use your PC to mine. Try to add 1 or 2 video cards, it will be more profitable. And also, mine altcoins not bitcoins.

those specs are definetly good, but it will cost you more to pay for it than to mine it, I suggest that if you can afford such a high spec pc to invest into actual miners!

Yes, you can still mine using that SPECS. But, will not earn that much, you'll end paying a high electricity bill. And the coins you have mined will not be enough to cover it.

I am wondering, Did the money you have earned able to cover the the electricity for the whole month?

Yes you can.
But you will not earn very much. You're losing time/energy for nothing.

I think it will just waste your time and money. A lot of mining pools these day requires a mining hardware to join them. To answer your question, yes you can still mine using your CPU rig, but I don't think it would be enough to cover the monthly bill of your electricity.
