Go to solution Solved by sabot,

Can confirm u will not make that back ever.... put that money into a coin if you think it is good. You are really late. Things got bad around November. Now it coasts more in power than the money the coins mine (I have a 290 and 6870) You could buy an asic but even that probably would loose money.

Hi im interested on mining because almost all of my friends are mining. so i just gonna try it if its nice :3 .My friend says that the HD 7850 is a good GPU for mining because of its low power consumption and my other friends says that R7 265 will beat the HD7850. so which of them are the best? im gonna mine 3 of them :) if i use 3 of 7850 or R7 265 can i gain more profit? if not, im not gonna buy new cards. :(

 

 

 

Which GPU's will make more profit?

By the way, why AMD cards are good for mining than Nvidia? hmmmp....

 

Sorry for my BAD English

Thank you and God Bless!!!!

It's literally not worth it to GPU mine anymore.

WAAAAY too late for this man. You will lose a ton of money trying to mine with that crap.

You need to buy an ASIC miner to many any profit at all.

 

You are going to lose money from buying a graphics card that was never mean to do mining (and sucks at it) and you will also lose money from sucking hundreds of watts 24/7

I wouldn't agree to mining with graphics card with lower horsepower. If you had more money for R9 290's/290X then maybe but the cryptocurrency thing is dead.

Unless it's a decked out fully-fledged room full of systems yes.

As almost everyone said, don't mine, at least not with gpus.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

I love how the whole process took less then 10 min. I guess it's like they say, you can have two, good, cheap, or fast. We went for cheap and fast.
