Crypto mining with an eight-core processor a good idea?

So I have an amd fx8320 and I'm not sure how well it will do at mining. I am trying to mine bitsend, and with all eight cores mining at same time, won't this be really fast?

Also, I noticed that when I was mining Bitsend, the money was not showing up in my wallet. Is there a huge lag time between mining currency and it showing up in your wallet?
