I randomly bought a RX 470 4gb for gaming last year, and recently found out its been heavily used for mining.
I took an interest in altcoin trading and just all around learning about BTC/Cryptocurrencies a while back but never got into mining.
Was wondering if I can setup to start mining (even if for low profit) with just my normal PC/GPU and slowly work my way into more GPU's.
I might even be able to straight up buy another one with money I had saving for a better gaming pc anyways.
Its better to use that GPU solely on gaming because if you decide to mine using that then expect you wont able to run your gaming pc because it will surely hang up when you use it unless if you have a spare gpu and also its possible to start on just gpu but it would be a waste of time because the amount to gain isnt really worth on your gpu cost and together with electricity cost.
one of my PC is used both for mining and playing wow, no hang ups ... i think I had some at first but i also don't mine and game at the same time.
I forget what i did to stop it, I don't any more and use a Modded bios... that card is a RX 480 4gb ... i have total of 10 cards between four rigs now , working on getting a 1080 ti, i hope in a month I'll enough saved for one ...
