Find the Best GPU for Mining… and more
Cryptocurrencies are fairly new, and I understand there’s a lot to learn. While I don’t claim to be an expert about the best mining gpu or the best crypto exchanges, I have been around Bitcoin and the crypto world for quite a while.
Do you have a question? Send me a note, and I’ll do my best to answer it, and I’ll include it in this section (as well as email my response to you directly of course!)
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…
This is a bit of a strange situation that happens with Awesome Miner. After a system restart, sometimes not all of your GPUs will be recognized, and yet in device manager, they’ll be listed. It’s just AwesomeMiner that doesn’t recognize them. The…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
If you already have 1 mining GPU up and mining, then adding more is easy! All of the hard work of setting up mining software, tweaking the GPU clock speeds, finding a mining pool, setting up a wallet etc, is already done…
When looking into mining, it can seem overwhelming, and seem like it takes a bunch of money to get started. However, if you have a limited budget, there’s really only a few questions you need to ask: Is that your max budget…
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…
