xmr, that's about it

What about ETH? Not worth?  I made this 0.000857796856866320 worth of ETH with just 5 laptops in 3 days while i was setting up the servers so im kinda wondering.

Whats the logic behind XMR ?

That's about $0.10 USD.  That likely would not even cover the electricity cost of charging those laptops for 3 days.

XMR can still be profitably mined with some CPUs, but just about everything else needs a GPU or dedicated hardware.

Ah thanks for the info and the link.

The laptops where just a gig i had running to experiment with mining and test some stuff, i was just curious because i probably did aprox 21h  mining with those machines which i understand are far from perfect but still i was pleased with the results.

Ok ill rig the servers to mine XMR, since i dont pay for electricity in the next 5 months i might aswell put them to good use while i wait for my first real mining rig... did some more research and i'll give ethos a try with a 6 gpu machine.
