Dear all,
I missed the Cryptocurrency boat at the beginning. I want to get in as soon as possible. I feel really stupid because I donated my Desktop computer in June because I didn't anticipate ever needed a desktop again (laptops are awesome right?).
At any rate I need a new desktop(s). What should I try getting?
1. Should I get a cheap desktop with enough Ram, and if I feel the desire buy ASIC USBs later to upgrade it?
2. Is it feasible to mine altcoins with a simple desktop?
3. Do you have any special advice or suggestions for a complete new start on mining equipment for altcoins?
Thanks,
Bill
