See the OP storyline:
1. First is, is still profitable to mine using just 1 card? My plan is to try one gtx 1080ti or 1070ti (just ignore the electricity consumption factor).
2. Will it be possible to plug it on my workstation and be able to do my daily tasks on my PC and be able to mine. (What I mean is just using my onboard graphics and letting the GPU to mine.)
Answered1. yes
2. yes
question no.1 and no.2 were clear. but OP has a problem again for a question no.2Anyway, I already bought a card and its a 1070ti. Now my problem is that when I use Nicehash, my computer is a bit Laggy. Thus, making the PC unusable for my second purpose which was to make this as my workstation at the same time. Is there any workaround on this so I can still work while my GPU is mining?
(What I'm planning is to put directly my hdmi cable directly to board to use the onboard graphics while running my GPU) Will this be possible?
Just to add. I had been researching for the best Algo to mine using Nvidia GPU. Also nicehash shows Lyra2v2 gives much decent earning. Would love to hear your suggestions about this. Thanks

Can be happened because of spec your cpu such Processor, RAM.

Yes you can do it.
Currently I'm using an i3 7th gen procie, and a single stick 8gb ram? Do I need to upgrade these parts?
seems your spec doesn't need to upgrade, its good enough for multitasking. your lag issue caused by your CPU do the mining through NH.
I think the question and the problem of OP has been clearly.so,
Nope it is not profitable now to mine using 1 GPU due to electricity costs on the whole PC.
Except you have free electricity wall ofcourse
so, this post not relevant to OP because OP has been posted(just ignore the electricity consumption factor).
