go with either bitcoin or litecoin theyll both make a little bit of money but dont expect to get rich anytime soon you might have a fair graphics card but you along way off what miners use if i where you id use guiminer as its pretty simple to set up and run. to find it google it and lfor the link going back to this forum

youll make around 0.05 bitcoins a day and maybe 3or4 litecoins

You can check how much profit you would earn online, theres a mining calculator which saves a lot of head work. However I think mining bitcoin with that hardware will be unprofitable, I could be wrong.

Thanks!

What gives the best rate of return based on time given my hardware configuration? Bitcoin, Litecoin or something else?

Hello everyone,

Sorry for my noobiness, I just learnt about bitcoin, and I have been reading around and so excited to join this forum! I have a rig at home (AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition processor and an ATI 5770 graphics card ) that I occasionally use for cad, but I was wondering if I could use it to mine bitcoin. I don't pay for electricity where I stay so that should not be an issue.

What would be the best way to mine bitcoin? Should I mine other alternatives like Litecoin or something else?

Thanks,

Jade
