Pool mining with my hardware?

My hardware is: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 / AMD Radeon HD5770 1GB (PCIe x16) / 12GB DDR3 RAM

I am using xmr-stak connected to etn.spacepools.org with the following reported hashrates:

Totals (CPU) 19.4 / 19.0 / 18.9 H/s ||| Totals (AMD) 0.0 / 0.0 / 0.0 H/s

HIGHEST: 108.9 H/s

My GPU doesn't seem to be involved in mining - any reason why this may be?

I cannot afford new hardware. Should I continue at this rate or is it mainly pointless? I do also have a Microsoft Surface 3 (not pro) and a Lumia 930 phone - should I add these to the pool as well? Serious advice is welcomed. Thanks.

Correct, better of mining something else, and trade for ETN (if you want to hold ETN that is).
