Of course – but we should clarify what you mean by profitable! People that bought GPUs 2 or 3 months ago, at MSRP (rather than double MSRP that most of the best mining GPUs seem to be selling for right now), have already mined enough to pay off the money the spent on their GPU […]
Questions and Answers
If you have a GPU mining rig that you want to overclock, you’ve probably wondered if you could overclock the whole rig, or if you have to overclock one graphics card at a time? The answer is yes, you have to do each GPU separately – sort of. Depending on your overclocking software, you may […]
It’s a common problem – a multiple GPU mining rig has one GPU that isn’t hashing as well as it’s brother and sister GPUs. The question is asked in a forum, or other message board, because the rig owner wants someone to fix it for them. But all too often, no details are given, and […]
Yes! Yes you can, this is how Bitcoin mining started. However, as time has passed, and new mining hardware called ASICs have been introduced, mining with a CPU is like “an ant fart in a hurricane” (source). Keep reading for details: Can I mine Bitcoin with a CPU? A CPU can make a few hundred […]
Why does a mining GPU have different hashrates, power usage, or temperatures at the exact same settings as the exact same card next to it? One of your GPUs will have a monitor plugged into it, so that can affect the hashrate slightly as it needs to provide video output and the other mining GPUs […]
Have you every wondered what sort of mining power can you get, what’s the GTX 1050 Hashrate? As the prices of all the best mining GPUs increase, and available inventory is nowhere to be found, people start looking farther and farther to the extremes to buy mining GPUs for their rig builds. Since there isn’t […]
This is a common question among people just looking at getting into gpu mining ethereum, and it’s a question I can’t give you a simple one-size-fits-all answer. Building a gpu mining rig is a very personal decision, based on many different variables. Here are some questions that I hope will help you along the way […]
When comparing the GTX 1060 3GB vs 6GB mining GPUs, at first glance, they would seem the same. They seem to have nearly the same hash rates for ethash and equihash gpu mining, and they look basically the same. However, when we look at the actual specs on the 6GB vs 3GB cards, we can […]
Yes, people do run a mining GPU off of their M.2 “next generation form factor” m-sata slots. The M.2 slots use the PCIe bus interface and are typically for installing a solid state drive, but can work to add an additional GPU to your mining rig. Here are some of the best M.2 risers and […]
