Ive seen a large drop in the value of the litecoin currency lately. I wanted to buy another GPU to start a new mine, however I changed my mind when I saw the graphs of the litecoin currency.

For now I have two workers, one is my laptop I use every day, and the other my old desktop which mines at ~20 kH/s. (not much but it's something)

I'm also planning on installing miners on some of the PC's at where I work. (lol)


At that speed you are probably using more electricity than you make in LTC. Still works as a pure exchange thou. But be aware that your laptop is more sensitive to mining. (Gets too hot quicker)

I using my laptop to do tests before  I get a GPU rig. I have heard rumors about it getting to hot, however, it is a Alienware Gaming Laptop and on max, the GPU doesn't even get much hotter than 70.

I would mine with it if you have enough hash rate for your electricity bill..
I wouldn't go over 85% fan speed and 70-75°C
