Right, thanks for the tip and helping out a real n00b :-) is it worth cpu mining when there's already gpu ?
So I assume i should join a pool and figure out how to use xcoin miners. right?
Any suggestions what to read or which pool to join to best learn cpu mining?
I really appreciate your help btw, this crypto world is the wild west :-)
I'm using a computer with nothing on it just to do the mining, and I only installed the software listed here so far, but yes, virus scans too.
Thanks again.
You are welcome but i have to go now.
Just try reading the get started info of a few pools. Any pool. Sometimes you find links you can follow.
And if you find one with an IRC chatt then the best you can do is to go in there say you are new and ask for some help. That's what this chatts are good for.
