Mining litecoins with your CPU is just going to raise your electric bill and get you jack for money, just saying..

Wouldn't it depend on the CPU?

I would assume a 5960X would be at least decent with mining (idk honestly, I don't mine. All I know is ASIC is the only way to mine for profit)

Even with a 5960X you would still make jack for money.

don't mine with your cpu it is just a waste of money you can buy an asic miner that will absolutely destroy a 4770k at mining for like 100.

First off, it's one word, Litecoin (LTC) and if you want to mine it with you CPU (whatever it may be), forget it. 

Waste of money, waste of time, waste of a CPU.

Don't do it. Trust me. Just don't. Save yourself some money.

I actually couldn't underclock my 5 year old GPU to make it as slow as a next-gen console.

you're going to destroy your CPU's lifespan, wreck your power bill and end up with nothing.
