RE: The Total and Utter Noobie Guide to Successfully Solo Mining the Cryptocurrency Gridcoin

Ok, so you have an i5-6200U CPU running at 2.30GHz, and an integrated graphics chip. I assume this is a laptop based on the computer name and that being a low power CPU?

Unfortunately, laptops carry some very underpowered hardware relative to desktops, so are not very good at doing research jobs that earn Gridcoin. You would earn maybe 1 GRC/day. It is also important to consider that laptops overheat very easily, so you may not be able to run it to capacity.

Correct, it is a laptop. Thank you very much for your guidance. I´ll keep reading here, and I´ll let you know if I make any progress in this regard.
