Hi everyone. This is my very first post here, and I'm glad to have found Bitcointalk.
I start mining this week for my first time. Not a big glamorous setup or anything. I have a gaming PC arriving this Tuesday that will have. GTX 1050 pre installed. I know it's not the best but it's a start. My question is can I buy an additional GPU and run both in the PC? I was thinking of buying a 1060 or 1070. 1080 would be great but I just don't have the cash yet. Any and all advice and constructive criticism is welcome. This is my first real attempt at mining so I'm willing to learn.
Thanks.
you should reconsider buying a GPU card for mining purposes only
if you plan to play games and mine occasionally-then it is one thing, but you want to profit on a ,say 1060 -reconsider it
I will link you this website :
https://whattomine.com/ you can see that average ROI time on GPU's are around 18 months now at best
so if you mine 24/7 and have a very cheap electricity, you will be able to get your money back only after a year and a half!
in most cases-on a new GPU it will be two years and more
