nicehash? wasnt that the one that was hacked and robbed?

Well as i said my electricity is free so no worries about the cost, i just bought a new MSI with gtx 1070 for gaming n stuff (and no i don't want to use that thing for mining) so this hp probook is now restricted for studies, seasons, research, surfing and torrenting.....so i thought why not use it to earn some extra bucks if i can.....??? And honestly, for now i am just thinking of playing around, if i seem to be getting some profit then i will think of buying something proper for this thing. What do you think?

Hi guys, i recently read about mining of different kind of cryptocurrencies and considering i already have my old laptop powered on all night, i am thinking of using it for bitcoin mining. This machine is NOT that powerful or anything, it doesn't have a dedicated GPU and it has an Intel Core i5 CPU @ 2.27GHz, 2GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics, Windows 7. Now from what i have been reading, i have been able to understand that power consumption is a big factor when doing mining, so i should mention that my electricity is FREE so power consumption is NOT a factor for me! Can anyone tell me if i should do bitcoin mining on this old HP probook? I am just looking to make some extra bucks here and if not bitcoin than any other currency?

And how do i do that? I want to make an image of my own pc with its windows and drivers n stuff

I have gotten the "clean install" option for my GT62VR from the seller. Now, I want to ask if i can make an iso image of the whole OS drive (ONLY windows and necessary drivers installed) and after an year or two if i wipe out the whole system i can simply load/write that iso file in a flash drive and install it in my system and i get the full windows and drivers installed in one go. Is this possible? If yes, then how? If there is any other way, then please recommend that too. (ps: newbie here )

Right, so between AW and MSI GT, which one? No clevo/sager outlets or franchises or anything in my country. Plus, i am simply not mentally satisfied with it idk why

Hi, I am looking to buy a new gaming laptop around $1700-$1800 and I have finally came upon these two models (these guys fall inside my budget range). They have the same specs, i.e storage, cpu, gpu and ram. MSI GT62VR 7RE DOMINATOR PRO-239 w/ GTX 1070 ASUS ROG Strix GL502VS-DS71 w/ GTX 1070 I am not much into looks of the machines, but more into the durability(long life) and performance. Frankly, I have been locked on the ASUS ROG for quite some time but too many rumours about this model running hot made me re-think my decision. That's why i am considering the MSI one, with its turbo boost and better cooling pipes (or so i have been told).I will be playing ALL the AAA titles with decent settings at my machine and want my machine to last at least 2, preferably 3 years. If anyone who have been using these machines or these brands(laptops) can share their experiences, it would be a big help.PS: Any NO sager/clevo for me please
