Processor speed needed to mine Burst
-
How fast does your processor need to be to mine Burst? I'm mining on a couple of PC's & a laptops no problem but a laptop & notebook I have the miner won't start up. The laptop has a 1.6ghz Intel & the notebook has a 1.8ghz AMD.

@Max629 I'd tried AMD Core Duo, it's worked (w/o AVX and AVX2)
-
@Blago I'm mining on a couple pc's with cheap Intel Celerons but they are 2.9ghz
-
No way you're the actual Blago that created my miner right?
-
@Max629 that would be the one and only Blago
-
@Max629 miner-v1.170820.exe works at SSE instuctions set

its not about how many ghz your cpu has, its about the instruction set it has, any speed will work, some may take longer depending on how fast your hdd is spitting data at it, but you more or less need to make sure to use the correct instruction set...
most modern cpu's have AVX2, older cpu's have AVX, and some even older only have SSE, so its a matter of using the correct version for your cpu, because if you try to use AVX2 on a cpu that only supports SSE, basically, "the miner won't start up"...
speed in this case is less important than instruction sets... so the miner will run...
