For example

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950x ( 800-1000 $) 1525 H/s
AMD Ryzen 1700X ( 330 $) 725 H/s

is it profitable to make such investments in mining? I think not.
If there is a given processor, you can receive 15-20 dollars of additional income per month. And to buy this processor for the mining is unreasonable.

It's easier to look for cheap old server boards with 2 processors and mine on it.

Yes, I agree, hence the 150 h/s hashing rate I'm promoting here as an average default value for average CPUs, but I wasn't sure what is he looking for.

Some people prefer to switch to CPU mining rather than GPU mining since GPUs were/are hard to find on the market.
If you compare the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950x with a 1080ti then the hash rates are kind of the same, the price as well if you're lucky but normally it exceeds that amount.

The issue is you can't buy a 1080ti since it's always out of stock

Not to mention you can use that CPU for other stuff as well.

If you mine a crypto currency with a hashrate 150 h/s, then it does not even pay for electricity costs

about AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950x. I found 3 models on the market

I found 3 models on the market

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 16 core (16-Core) CPU with 3.40 GHz
AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1920X 12 core (12-Core) CPU with 3.50 GHz
AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1900X 8 core (Octa Core) CPU with 3.80 GHz

These processors have a special TR4 socket. Motherboards for this socket cost $ 400-500. + the cost of a cooler is 40-50 dollars ( 180 W TDP

)

beauty

Therefore, to compare AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X and 1080ti for mining is unrealistic.

I've added a new coin that can be mined using your average CPU called BLOC.

BLOC is a CryptoNight-Heavy coin that can bring you 0.9 tokens/day while using a hash rate of about 150 h/s.

I've also added in their official pool: bloc-mining.us

Happy mining Wink

This actually looks like a decent project with a possible future. Going to mine a bag for hodling.

Which CPU?

I think I missed your reply to the thread. Sad

I'm not sure if I understand your question correctly. If you're trying to find out which CPU would be best then the Ryzen family of processors from AMD is the best for mining at the moment.
They are also releasing a new CPU which will be by far the the best one for mining: https://www.techradar.com/news/amd-ryzen-threadripper-2nd-generation

I wonder why no one mentioned Worktips coin yet Angry

ANN THREAD - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-worktips-designed-for-mining-and-rewarding-3086019
WEBSITE - http://worktips.info/

It's a great cn-lite v1 coin for small miners, community growing every day, great devs.

I mined it a few months back when the only pool available was their official one. At that time they had a lot of issues with their pool in the sens that it was banning you after a a few days for some weird reasons.
So, decided not to add it here until they fix their pool issues.

Are you mining it right now? Have you had any issues with it recently?

Theoretically it's better to mine than turtlecoin because you get more for your 1sat but in practice you can sell trtl but goodluck selling wtips...

There's 50 btc worth of wtips for sale at tradeogre at 1 sat. Given 1 btc is worth 99,800,000wtips. That's a bigger queue than I know how to say.

thanks bro. I mining BBS coin with hashrate 150h/s

Glad to hear that

Be sure to also check the other coins listed on the first post in this thread.

I'm currently mining it too, let's hope it will increase in price as the coin develops and expands it's user base.

I have added in a new coin to the first post in this thread, it called: BitTube (TUBE). It was previously known as Inter Planetary Broadcast Coin or IPBC coin for short.

You will get about 0.7 TUBE coins per day using a hash rate of about 150 h/s.

I'm currently mining it on their official pool here: https://mining.bit.tube/

Happy mining

Credits to OP. very help full for someone like me who start mining after a long gap. Will try some of these coin with my CPU

Thanks a lot for the kind words

Let me know if you have any issues setting it up.

In the mean time, I have added another coin to the main post of this thread: OMBRE
This is a CryptoNight Heavy coin that will get you about 60 tokens/day with a hash rate of 150 h/s.

The pool I'm using right now is: cryptoknight.cc/ombre

I've added a new coin to the OP, it's called ELYA and you can get about 92 tokens per day with a hash rate of about 150 h/s.

I'm using this pool for it: https://cryptoknight.cc/elya/ as it seems it's the largest available.

Happy mining Cheesy

I have seen some questions in this thread about:
+Which coins has forked?
+Which coins are ASIC resistant?
+What algorithm are they currently on to properly set it up for mining?

To answer all of these questions I have created another thread here:
[CryptoNight] Forked coins, ASIC resistance and current algorithms and also updated the main post in this thread to include a link to it.

Be sure to check it out

I've added a new coin to the main post of this thread called ITALO coin.

ITA is doing well at this point, it is listed on some exchanges and it's currently worth $0.11/coin.

With a hash rate of about 150 h/s in CN-v7 you can get about 2.4 ITA/day.

It's interesting but would like to wait a bit to see if it catches on before adding it to the thread.

The payment for mining is shown as the unit of tokens. However, it should be better to use BTC or ETH per day. That will make the profit clear.

I don't think you understood what I'm trying to do here.

It's not about profitability as of right now, it's about profitability sometime in the future when the coin increases in value.
