Graphics cards are the undisputed queens in cryptocurrency mining, but this does not mean that processors cannot be a good alternative, especially now that graphics cards are increasingly rare and expensive.

In addition, there are some currencies that require a powerful CPU, such as Bitcoin. Finally, in any mining system a processor is imperatively needed, even if the work is done by the graphics cards.

Recommended processors for mining cryptocurrencies

In this post we offer you the most interesting processors for a cryptocurrency mining system, we are going to see the recommended options for all situations.

Intel Celeron G3900 vs Intel Pentium G4560

These two processors are all we need if we are going to build a mining system based on graphics cards, since all the calculations will be done by these, so the processor will only take care of fairly basic tasks. The only downside to choosing a Celeron or Pentium processor is the resale value once we stop mining. If you need to sell this processor to someone else, you will have a hard time finding someone to buy it instead of an Intel Core CPU.

AMD Ryzen 3 2200G

The Ryzen 3 2200G is the perfect alternative to Intel's Pentium range for mining cryptocurrencies, this is one of the newer processors released by AMD. As you well know, they include Vega graphics and quad cores so it will be a fairly competent model to give it other uses when you are going to stop mining with it. This option is ideal if you plan to sell your RIG gear after you've finished mining, or want to use it as an occasional gaming rig. Although it can also be interesting


Intel Core i9 7900X vs AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X

The Intel Core i9 78900X and the Ryzen Threadripper 1950X are two of the most powerful processors on the market today, they offer exceptional performance for their price (especially the 1950X). Both allow cryptocurrency miners to take their work to the next level. Their 10-core / 20-thread configurations and 16-core 32-thread AMD make them all-capable monsters when paired with a good Multi-GPU system for mining. Some time ago it was shown that the AMD processor is one of the best at mining Monero by itself.

With this we end what we consider to be the best processors for mining cryptocurrencies. What do you think of the choice?

even though sometimes it is not the power or the performance of the processor it is always important to have a stable system just to read processing lines for the action of mining any coin with several GPUs until here my article I hope it has served you for the next I will do an article about the cheapest pc gaming processors on the market ...
