RE: Is it profitable to mine on a gaming PC?

in #mining7 years ago

No I didn't know. What's the difference between the two?

I'm living in Switzerland; one of the most expensive countries on earth. I pay a bit more than 20 cents per kwh. Mining a whole day gives me 0.006 Zcash, which equals roughly 1.2$. Correct me if I'm wrong: I estimate mining for a whole day consumes roughly 3 kwH (3* 0.2 = 0.6$ thus 50%).

Sort:  

Notebooks have worse hardware (and usually special video cards) and are not suited for such use, you need good air flow for mining since gpu is 100% active but notebooks are tiny idk how it works specificly with yours but still. Most important is that you can put many gpus in gaming pc which is more efficient.

But yeah it is not so profitable for you, but that is very specific case.
