Such a minimal amount of coins your computer can make. In fact most of the computers who don't have a mining hardware can't mine a profitable amount of btc. If you have money to buy a hardware, mining is one good option for you. Wink

Although it is really better to mine using special hardware, not all people can buy it as the prices for this stuff are too high. The performance of AMD A8-6410 is not the best one, but BTC can be mined on it if I am not mistaken.

Mining on a laptop is a losing business. 1) You will spend time searching for a suitable coin. 2) Your GPU will overheat, which reduces its life. 3) Depending on the region of residence, you will also need to pay electricity bills. Mining on a laptop may be of interest to the enthusiast. For profitable mining, you need modern powerful GPU.

when you mine using the laptop you have then it will make the machine from your laptop damaged and nothing can make a profit when you mine using a laptop, you better build some computers and build a place to do mining such as building a rig or something so it won't damage your laptop and make it a device to monitor your mining machine.

There are many coin I would have suggest for you to mine, but it sems as if your PC processor is not that strong to handle the process you might want to increase the capacity or you buy minning rig. But for now you can start wirh minng Uplexa token their mining pool and earnings is encouraging. That should get you started for the time being

OP's pc processor is not recommended to be used to mine crypto right now. That only waste a lot of time and that will make OP needs to pay more. He can't even get a buck in a day. This time the recommended CPU to mine crypto at least ryzen. But it's still not too strong enough compared with the GPU. That's better to sell his CPU and try to convert it into the GPU. Even second-hand GPU is much better than it. https://www.miningbenchmark.net/cpus.php
that gives a lot of insight about the profitability of A8

agree with you. I'm not really good at Mining problems, but I think using a PC processor will only make you lose. right now, there are so many good coins to mine. maybe the suggestion above is very good. if you intend to mine, try to take risks. selling CPUs, and buying GPUs that support Mining will get better. even more so if you can make it in the form of a rig.

Try to choose some new fresh projects with good support of cryptocommunity.
In the initial stages, mining is much easier to do, especially in the long run.
or, as an option, to mine for several days ALL new projects, something will be good

I would suggest to not use your GPU to mine any Altcoin, because most miner now have at least 10++ state of the art GPUs. You will got crushed by them and make your mining is worthless. But if you insist, I suggest to mine a good coin not shitcoin.

I know ASIC miners have become some what popular and more effective than GPU/CPU miners, but you can try bitcoin gold, zencash and zclassic though it will require more effort to get something more tangible in recent times.

thanks a lot for your input and suggestions. Can you suggest mining pools and mining software that can optimize greater mining earning and PC performance?

for the mining pools and you can now try to visit the announcement page of that coin directly and you will find all of mining pools that support those coins. But it much better for you to re consider it again.
Mining pools and mining software can't help you to get a lot of optimize the result of your hashrate. The result of your hash depends on your GPU or CPU. what kind of GPU that already installed in your PC?

my system makes use of an AMD Radeon 8 GPU. I'm considering just abandoning it for mining alot. I don't care about the hardware.. I just want to dump it to serve some purpose.

Hi everyone. I'm new to mining and I want to try out GPU mining on my old computer. My PC has a AMD A8-6410 processor up to 2.7 GHz. What coins can I mine with this please?

It is good you are planning of entering into mining because bounties these days are not profitable and relying on it alone will not fetch you anything. Since the PC is not so powerful, you can try mining the new coins since those ones are less complex.

You can still mine CPU-only mining coins like Nimiq (NIM). Should be easy to setup and mine thru a mining pool.
I mined the coin when the mainnet launched, accumulated coins and stopped due to computer problem.

Why do you prefer to use your personal computer for mining instead of the new one with probably updated features. If you are really serious to do mining, then you better equip yourself with powerful computer

you got a laptop processor, it won't be good to do mining because the results given are very few and even make your laptop slower and even damaged. so my suggestion is that you can collect money then buy mining equipment like making a PC but by adding a lot of GPU.

You can try to mine Cpu mineable coins but there is no point in doing that with your processor as it is not that powerful and it is also mobile so it can hurt your laptop.

Mining rigs are being sold cheap on Ebay so you can buy one, if you have little money there are also mining rigs with only 3 cards for sale there.

The days of mining with your personal computers are over, unless you want your hardware to be toast for no reward.It is simply not worth the effort.Even many Graphic cards are obsolete.

Ooh. Can you recommend the cheapest mining set up one can own. I really want to go into this mining thing. Seems I'm years behind.

Why not buy a single GPU to start mining? just put it in your PCIE to your PC and you can start mining.

And I would like to share you one of the good thread where you can find which GPU you should buy that can make you real profit.

Sincerely, mining with personal computers don't worth it anymore. Not only will you pay more for energy, you will also put your hardware at great risk, at the long run end up with little or no profit.
Many have said it all, and it will be wise to listen to the opinion of majority.

How far you're willing to endangered your PC/Laptop? mining isn't profitable anymore, reading those replied above will give you a good basis not to proceed with this journey, the mining industry for solo miner is already long forgotten, the profits against the expenses is far differ, it will only ends up
losing your device without any rewards or any value after, research everything before you continue.
