Hi there, I'm a noob and have searched for this question without much luck. Also asked some miners I know, but none can give me a straight answer.
I have an old laptop with the aforementioned specs (1tb HDD too. mined some burst, but meh results) laying around as I switched to macOS exclusively (boo) for work.
So just wondering if there's any altcoins with potential (don't need to be $1000 yet, of course) out there that're mineable at a mediocrely decent rate with my old laptop?
Thanks! Much love; $5 bjs around back.

The 960m in that laptop is the same chip that is the GTX 750Ti so look up 750 ti mining and you will have your result.
For eth it wont be good, might be very mediocre for zcash, however.
trading alts has been fun, same with the blockchain in general. from £800 to £14,000 since xmas eve! figured I'd invest in a miner once I figured it all out. no point learning on something that costs a bomb, need to learn on something cheaper.
the blockchain is something wonderful and new to me. I'm a sr software engineer for a tech conglomerate, the knowledge might come in handy sooner than I think from what I've seen!
