I want know, this is true?For litecoin, is better buy some good processor like i7 instead a good GPU?Litecoin really is better mined using CPU's?scrypt mining-hardware cpu-mining gpu-mining up vote 9 down vote Any CPU can still be used to mine Litecoin, although much less effectively as a modern AMD GPU could.bitcoin physiqueMining with a CPU gives you very bad hashrate therefore I wouldn't recommend it.bitcoin dopeEven a high end CPU will not give you the hashrate of a mid range GPU.bitcoin kurs downloadYou should use a graphics card (GPU) to mine litecoins or switch to another coin Additional Information: If you decide to buy a GPU specifically for mining go for an ATI GPU as its much more effective than its nVidia counterpart.regulation of bitcoin is up for grabs

up vote 1 down vote No.A GPU will almost certainly always be faster than a CPU for Litecoin mining.See the Litecoin Mining Hardware Comparison chart.up vote 1 down vote CPU is virtually useless for scrypt based coins like litecoin, stick to GPUs, for now.bitcoin meeting miamiHere is a comparison of the top GPUs you can buy for mining, with user submitted settings.litecoin mining gpu usage/gpu/ protected by Community Thank you for your interest in this question.Because it has attracted low-quality or spam answers that had to be removed, posting an answer now requires 10 reputation on this site (the association bonus does not count).Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead?Browse other questions tagged scrypt mining-hardware cpu-mining gpu-mining or ask your own question.

First, the information material is quite bad.On Sourceforge aren´t much Information given by the developer and even in the internet are nearly no entrys about this project.That doesn´t make it look trustfully to me.Don´t install if you don´t trust the programm!That quote was also sent to me in a support ticket i opened to the EasyMiner Support.I started the ticket because: My WindowsDefender removed the application soon and a scan on VirusTotal gives you a bad feeling about this Application, because there are many entrys with bad ratings of antivirus programms.Of course i heard, that there is malware, that runs Miners for cryptocurrency in the background.Maybe it was false alarm because we tried to mine some Litecoins for real.My discomfort was increased, when I saw that the mining process was stopped after about 8 hours, and they placed a big window where they tried to force you to donate your already farmed LTC.You can´t close the window, only the whole programm!Only download if you know what you are doing and when you trust the developer.
