Hey,

Thank you both for the response. I should answer a few things that I never answered:

1. I should have said this in my first message, and I totally forgot. Iam not mining Bitcoin. I have mined and I’m currently mining either Bitcoin Gold, Ethereum Classic or Monero.

2. Iam not using an ASIC. I’m using just a personal GPU. What I want to achieve is simple…I’m just mining for fun, it is just something that I have been doing for quite sometime. To address your concern about being “10 years to late to mining”, that is possible I only started mining just a little bit after mining became a thing, so I might not know what I’m doing.

3. I do not really have any, “achievement goal” that I’m pursuing, I mine for fun, and the little bit of extra income that is made > at some point during the year I’ll login to my different wallets and convert everything to LiteCoin or Doge or Ethereum and exchange it for cash > then transfer it into the girlfriend and I’s joint account

But the reason for my question was to see if anyone knew why mine (or anyones) mining software would put out a huge amount of Kilohashes at night then just go back down to putting out 8-10 during the day (PST, and “per day” meaning between the hours of about 7am and 130pm, sorry I didn’t specify that in my last message, sorry.

Oh and as far as posting in “alt-coins”, well I wanted to do that initially but someone that I was chatting to mentioned that, my topic should go in the genera discussion forum. Next time I’ll post something like this, there.

Thank you again,
Jeff

1. How come I can’t get my mining software to put out more than 8-10 kilohashes?

You will have to tell more about what you're doing and what you think you want to achieve.
As in the pinned post, you need an ASIC to mine Bitcoin. You cannot mine Bitcoin with PC, if that's what you're doing.
So the answer would be: "that's because you're some 10 years late for PC mining and in 2022 you need to buy ASIC".

If you're mining altcoins, on the other hand, then please ask in altcoin mining area of the forum.

LoveWalter
