Or the coins based on the SHA256, but with some modification. That could be profitable. Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ?

Would that make a difference and enable me to mine ethereum then, with CF on , or it would not make a difference. The cards are 1 gig ram each Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ?

Anything less than that will not work in Ethereum. Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ? Post by: Xdragon on May 05, 2016, 09:59:12 PM I think 5850 is good for Decred(DCR)
Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ? Post by: Gataway on May 19, 2016, 04:14:46 PM I think 5850 is good for Decred(DCR) It is OK for Decred, but it is less efficient than the 7900 or later cards as it is less efficient and use more energy.

Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ? Post by: Bokelka on June 07, 2016, 07:34:55 PM to mine eth and dcr with the dual miner. I mine the Etheruem, but not the Decred. My electricity price is high and I am limited by the power in my house. Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ? Post by: Zaduca on June 09, 2016, 08:33:25 AM Ethereum is the only coin for me to mine. It is the most profitable to mine for the foreseeable future.
Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ? Post by: Gataway on June 21, 2016, 05:50:18 PM Ethereum is the only coin for me to mine. It is the most profitable to mine for the foreseeable future. Ethereum was a good coin to mine before the recent crash. But it is not the best now, the Eth price is too low. Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ? Post by: U253 on June 21, 2016, 10:46:35 PM what's the major difference between the coins mentioned above and ethereum, other than the current profitability ratios?

For the miners, only the profitability matters. They are different coins with different mining algorithms as far as I know. Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ?

For the miners, only the profitability matters. They are different coins with different mining algorithms as far as I know. Is the Ethereum still the most profitable coin to me? I notice the price has already dropped below 10 dollars. Title: Re: What coin to mine with GPU ? Post by: greenuser on July 06, 2016, 10:04:02 AM Use this...... https://www.whattomine.com
I am currently fliting between eth and feather depending which is top of the leader board. However, what is left of the CPU power on the rig is being used to mine Groestl. So 2 coins on 1 rig!
