Currently it is not possible for us to only have a CPU or GPU with low specifications to mine heavyweight crypto such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash etc. because the more difficult it is, the more competition there is using high-end miner devices. If we only have a computer or laptop with or without a video card, is it possible to mine crypto with low hashing. So are there any coins that can be mined using only CPU or GPU?
 
I think Monero can be mined only using CPU or GPU, but really, it is not advisable to mine any cryptocurrency with a low hash rate, it is better to invest money in mining machinery and start mining something profitable.
 
From what i know, I think there are specific kind of systems you can use for mining. Using anything lesser or lower than that means you spoiling your system after much usage.

I agree with you, even though the level of Monero mining has become increasingly difficult, Monero is one of the coins that can be mined using only a GPU, even Monero is resistant to ASICs. Meanwhile, MoneroV still seems possible to mine with a CPU.
 
I think the biggest issue, is making sure you would have good hardware regardless. Mining crypto tends to take a bit of power and processing to properly do so for extended periods of time without sacrificing the ability to multitask on a computer. I wouldn't want to mine on my computer, if I knew what I was mining would keep me from doing other tasks at the same time.
 
Mining is not an easy thing to start, and yeah i jave tried mining using my Pc but the outcome was disappointing, when i was new to crypto world i had no idea how mining was and after mining with my pc for long time the earning was very very little and my pc starts to heat and make some noise so i stopped it, but know i know that mining takes a lots of profession and dedication and also to create a mining farm it need a lots of funding and the electric consumption is very high, so mining with cpu or gpu is not something you try.

It is possible to mine coins with only a CPU or GPU, but it is less economical because to greater competition and specialized technology. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin frequently necessitate the use of strong ASIC miners. However, depending on the coin's algorithm and network complexity, altcoins may still be viable for CPU/GPU mining.

You are right, we can still mine crypto only with a CPU and GPU, but it is not recommended to mine crypto using a laptop because it will heat up quickly, even if you use a PC to mine crypto it would be good if you added a cooler, you can also run several graphics cards during the mining process , some coins that are easy to mine such as Dogecoin, Monero, Vertcoin and Bytecoin,

I do not think it is recommended to do mining especially if you have an old PC or your PC is used for development purposes because it will become slower than usual and not work as expected.

True, mining with ordinary pc is not recommended, crypto mining needs a high powered computer to get some amount of profit, but starting with low end pc will not have a profit and also it will damage the pc.

Especially the navigator is not responding issue and also a blank page for 5 or 10 consecutive mining and becomes blocked for opening a new tab for CPU or GPU damaged so even navigation becomes a boring task by experience.

You are right, everything stopes functioning and the computer starts to heat up, the fan keeps sounding some strange sound, and personally i don't like it, i have tried browser mining but still it uses my computer power, and my pc stakes.
