You should post what computer equipment you have available currently so people can direct you to what you can mine.

Well I have an AMD A6-5200 quad-core CPU and an AMD Radeon HD 8400/R3 Series for graphics, so they're not that great. I've tried using minergate and I only got 40h/s on CryptoNight, waaaay lower than what I need to pay for the electrical usage, let alone make mining worth the time it takes. And any PoW algorithm other than CryptoNight is too futile to try mining. Also, does RAM make a difference in hashrate for PoW (I'm thinking it only makes a difference for Proof-of-Capacity algorithms)?
