Title: First post - curious about mining with my workstations Post by: hatts on April 09, 2013, 04:03:50 AM Hi all,
Just started looking into mining. I have a few workstations at my disposal at my office. They are high-end graphics workstations. Each has a Quadro 6000. I am already familiar with the gospel that says ATI > nVIDIA for mining, but the cards are installed already. Considering that electricity is free, the computers are under my watch, and there are four of them, is it worth it to get started mining with them? Please forgive the noobishness. Thanks!

Yes you could pull something. Is it worth it. No.
