GPU vs. CPU mining

This post is a general overview of GPU and CPU mining.

It’s simple: These are two types of mining that use different parts of the computer.

CPU mining is when you use the computer’s processor (the computer’s brain) for the task. Processors are good at various tasks but not as good at the large and complex calculations that mining requires.

GPU mining is when you use the graphics card (the visual brain of the computer) for mining. GPUs are built for fast and complex calculations (mostly for gaming), which makes them more efficient for mining.

As a result, GPU mining usually generates more revenue, but the hardware is also more expensive.

Did you think it was impossible to mine on a CPU? Well, yes, you can! (although not very efficiently).
