For me personally, the answer to those questions is "no, not at all". My CPUs (a tenth/eleventh generation i5 and a sixteen-year-old i7) simply aren't powerful enough to produce decent hashrates, even when working together. (I'm getting an average of about 1.2Kh on a good day, since Monday last week. Just to be breaking even, given how expensive my electricity is, I'd need an average hashrate of at least 5Kh. To make a profit, I'd need at least 10Kh, preferably closer to 20Kh). I also don't have the money to shell out for Ryzen 9 5*-series or i9 CPUs (since I'd need to buy mobos and RAM as well if I were to go with a desktop/tower rig). However, if anyone does have such gear and electricity is cheap for you, I strongly suggest you check out the output of the Raptoreum Mining calculator and decide if mining RTM is right for you, since you could potentially bring in up to $6.00 USD worth of RTM a day. YMMV, of course, depending on other costs (including electricity and pool fees).
