Wow that was fast, so right now I have two i7 computer CPU mining Litecoin at the moment, and the kh/s look sucks, look like even with strongest cpu will not be able to compare with GPU power. My i7 each mine at about 35-40 kh/s and it’s probably the slowest in the litecoinpool, anyhow it’s just a test for few days to see if I can generate any LTC while waiting for the 2 Radeon HD 7970 video card GPU and mobo.

mining litecoin with i7 cpu in progress

I noticed the CPU usage is between 90 to 100% usage up and down. Well at least it’s running. It’s amazing how these type of mining GPU win over strongest CPU. I can spend $400 on a GPU that can mine hundreds of time faster than the strongest CPU. Will confirm this when I get the GPU on Wednesday but probably will take another couple of days to assemble.
