I think mining with a CPU is not an effective form. I've also tried to exploit some altcoin with the CPU, but it's not profitable for me because the performance is not high. In my opinion, you can use GPU or some professional exploiting machine will bring more efficiency.
Okay, so when everyone is using GPU’S the playingfield is levelled....unless you get a $500,= gpu....then you have a bit more......some have 12 per rig and so on.....right?
So what if people mine cpu only coins, read cpu only, so gpu will not work.
When you buy a 500,= CPU....You have a pretty big one, or you can buy 7 small ones, like xu4 odroids to mine....very efficient little buggers.
Don’t compare e them too much, cpu and gpu mining are different things.
