Thats like 1970's TV remote control  Sad

Something quite dead or hibernating could benefit from that.
If tenebrix/fairbrix is even scrypt you could try those.

The recent newly released coins are very difficult with that kind of hashrate, so many people jump in to them in the beginning. If your lucky and get in very early you could get some blocks but thats not going to be worth your time anyways. BQC would have been perfect for you 2 months ago, now it's way too popular for 2 kh/s.

Maybe one of the (junk) coins with lottery like super blocks?

I am very wary with Dustcoin, however I would say to look at exchanges and look at calculators to see what will get you which return.

Also look at the Market trends, and in a way you are mining coins that you feel should be worth something in the future and not something now, I think/hope that alot of the instamine pump and dump is over.

well, choose your poison:

www.coinchoose.com
www.dustcoin.com

etc. - stability vs. speculation?
you can also try to go for coins that are not on any exchanges yet. sadly, on this forum, no one can tell you what coin to mine. people will only use this to post propaganda in whatever direction they need it. Or you hunt after new coins, but that game is probably over now until some coin with a bit of innovation shows up.

Thanks, ill choose carefully, but most likely jump on the new altcoin wagon and see if i can get lucky.

I don't recommend using a potato to mine.



== potato

1.4 Kh/s Scrypt(1024,n,n) per core.

Or 5-7 Kh/s with cbuchner's cudaminer compute 1.2 device i think.


This, this is my fastest machine right now.

Rather mine in your back yard. You have a better chance of finding Saxon gold buried there.  Cheesy

Undecided so currently not mining anything.

I pay 13.4p per kwh (UK), looking at the various coins, and the amount I could successfully mine, the returns seem minimal on most.

Any suggestions on what I should try? LTC / BTB seem to be the obvious ones right now, but that might quickly change with difficulty increases.

Thanks
