Has anyone calculated which hashing algorithm has the LEAST advantage from a GPU vs. CPU?

I'm always in search of the best coin to mine on all but 1 of my cores along with my GPU miner.

I got ~3 XPM in 1 week mining on RapidPrime with their optimized CPU miner with my i7-3770 @ 3.4 Ghz x 7 cores and am curious if I can do any better.

Isn't Primechain/Primecoin the only hashing algorithm that GPU is no faster than CPU with current software?
Not anymore.

Wow, very impressive. I know tons of people have been volunteering to test and you probably don't need anyone else, but just in case, I'd be happy to run it on my Windows 8.1 64 bit system with a Diamond R9 280X.

The jury is still out on Cuckoo Cycle, as little effort has been put into GPU implementations.
A direct port of the current latency-bounded CPU implementation performs
much worse than the CPU one, but that's not saying much...

Cuckoo Cycle isn't used by and coins yet, is it?

Nope:-(

Let me know if you need a tester with 5830, 6950 !

Which one is the most profitable CPU coin now?

Hi,
the groestlcoin (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=525926.660) may be also a coin worth to mine.
I've got an E5-1620 and I can mine at 1200 kh/s (~500 kh/s on hirocoin X11).
at this speed it seems to be more profitable (or less bad Tongue) than Hiro or Riecoin
That coin is GPU mineable since day 1. This list is intended for coins that are CPU only or were CPU only in the beginning.

The original intention of the list was CPU only. As the list evolved, I realized that some coins were still worth CPU mining even when there was a GPU miner available. It doesn't matter to me when the GPU miner becomes available, as long as the CPU is still competitive.

I will check it out.

Is there any pool that can be mined through proxy server I have on work several i3 n i5 machines that i can use post here pls.

Found some but no connection.
 

Look for pools that allow you to connect on port 80. You should be able to connect without proxy.

Considering about current situation best are X11 to mine for now.

anyone have a difficulty list of these coins? Would be interesting to see which are profitable

Each coin has its own algorithm so you can't compare difficulty

Thanks for the list!!! my cpu is working now!!!  Grin

Great!

you should list QuickQuickCoin , both CPU and GPU.

I am not going to add because the developer is missing. If the dev returns or someone takes over, I will consider.

This made me realize that any coin on the list without an active developer should be removed. I will be making changes. Removed pnut.

There are rumors about CHC GPU miner
It would not be difficult to "fork"

Not a rumor. I updated first post with link.
