Can I run radeon cards with nvidia?

Does the HD7990 or R9 295x2 still yield very high hashrates compared to the 480s or 1070s or 1080tis?

Also how is the Titan X in comparison to the 1080ti

Oh I live in a dorm my only cost is learning to sleep with the noise

Hello I recently set up my PC which has an intel 5820k and a Asus Strix 970. I would like to mine when I'm not gaming to help pay for future upgrades.

I cannot seem to get 5820k to mine on NIcehash it just says there is a bench mark error. It's currently clocked at 4.2 GHZ athough nicehash claims its still at 3.3.

The 970 will mine but only for about 1 USD a day. They estimated about 2 a day when I looked. I understand they probably over estimate but I figured I would get at least more than half there estimate. Currentl;y the gpu is not overclocked so I would need help doing so.

How should I configure all the two?

Also is nicehash the best option or should I use something else?

Its better than buying like 3 or 4 older radeons for the same price perhaps even less?

Hi!
I am looking to build my first mining rig and would like to see if I could scrap together some local parts first. So if you live in the Netherlands or close by let me know what you have.

Also feel free to reach out if you have an interest in offering advice and tips to a local newbie

Bittawm is actually selling D3s for $2500 each right now with shipping included (reputable member in the computer hardware goods section). Just be warned these things (as do pretty much all miners these days) sound about as loud or louder than vacuum cleaners and you can really hear em. Spending a hundred bucks or so can get you some decent soundproofing, Philipma has a YouTube channel where he documents making some Avalon miners quieter. They went down to 60-63db or so iirc but still a little bit loud.

How long would it take to get a ROI

I have my 5280k CPU overclocked to 4.4 with liquid cooling....Would I need to turn it down? WIll it actually mine very much?

Yeah I couldn't give a you know what about either power efficiency or overall power consumption.....They cut so many corners in my dorm and I only save very little over my friends who live in amazing places so it serves them right hahaha

My budget would probably range $500 for a 1 year ROI to 5k for a 1 month ROI

What would be some of the highest output to purchase cost GPUs? I was hoping there would be some powerful ones that go cheap because they are power hogs

I live in a dorm that has untraceable power consumption and since I over pay for the low quality of it I'd like to have fun and tinker with Mining

Currently I have a GTX970 with I7 5280k....it hasnt been rebuilt since moving here. COuld I mine when not using it then keep it as my gaming computer when I want it?


If I was to invest in mining what would be a good set up taking into account energy efficiency is irrelevant...infact with winter coming may need the inefficent power plant to warm up my room
