I've been hearing alot about Bitcoin and Crypto currencies ... And I've been thinking of mining now would this do any damage to my GPU? or mess with my computer? as I know alot of people who mine have PC's built just for that

Any help appreciated thanks

i'll tell you what i've been told when expressing interest in mining.

you're way too late to the party. invest if you want to make money

Pretty much the same as above. Unless you are willing to wait quite a long time for your investment back from mining before you start earning from it. Invest in crypto currency.

Yes, it can damage your GPU if you leave it on all of the time

There is a very real possibility that the amount of electricity that you use trying to generate Bitcoin will be more than the Bitcoin you generate, putting you in the hole

Like the two posters above, I advised against Bitcoin mining because it's too late, like around 8 years too late

Don't mine bitcoins, they're worth $7000+ USD so you won't make shit
