Bitcoin Forum

Hi everyone, I'd like to mine to earn some money. What can I do? At home I've a computer with i7, gtx 750 Ti and 8GB ram, but I understood that I couldn't do anything with it. What could I do? I could invest 50/100€, I'm italian, thank you.

Buy some bitcoin for the money you want to invest, and forget them for 5 years.

You can do literally nothing with that much money; you couldn't even buy a decent mining card these days with that much! Save up your money some more and then you might be able to get a decent one-card rig.

You might be able to acquire a R9 290 for around that sum and start mining with it using your PC.

There is no thing like free money or something like that. Amount that you have is just too low. Minimum to invest now would be around 800-1000e adn you would get that back in about 10-12 months with current diff which is constantly changing

You could get a USB miner for that price, but you will probably not make your money back.

You can get an 7950 for like £50/£60 on eBay

230sol/s Equihash

Not much but a start - will earn about 0.7usd a day

Keep in mind any cheap old card will probably be too inefficient and eat profits due to higher power consumption.

Also don't bother being cheap in my opinion as you will end up buying twice.


I agree with the above, you need to put down at least 6/12 GPU to actually make it worth your time

Gtx 750ti is a legendary mining gpu, it can do 300h/s (w7) on xmr consuming only 40 watts, your i7 adds another 300h/s. 600h/s should earn you $0.80/day, try mining for a month or two and if you still feel like you have found a goldmine invest your profits to buy some more gpu power.

Is there any business that you can invest 50/100euro and actually earn anything of it , i don't think so and mining is just like any other business it's not a get rich fast and who told you that is a scamer , you will need to invest good amount to start and give it some time and work then expect an roi after 10 months if you have cheap electricity after that you can sell your hardware and get your profit.

its good to start for you and i think you only need select good coins that work properly for your video cards. maybe you can consider to mining zec, eth, etc, xmr, because this coins is promising. you can use software from nicehash to start, you don't have to setting your computer at all, you only have to start the software, follow instructions from nicehash sites and the software will determine what is the best coins for you to mining.

Too bad it's shortening your cpu's lifetime. The amount of crypto you earn mining won't nearly be as much as the cost of new computer components when it breaks. 750ti is OK but price per MH isn't as good as radeon cards.

Dead cpu anyone?

Ehh... 750ti is 2014. Back then it was only card that actually earned you something. Amd mining was negative.

It was replaced by 970 only because mining came more profitable --> 970 could do 2.5x750ti.

Good thing there's a 3 year warranty on my CPU. I'll be buying a new one before the warranty ends anyway.

CPU lifetime is least of his worries. There is no profitable CPU mining atm. It's impossible to hit ROI with any CPU and when you pay for elecrticity you will almost always be in deficit

ROI is still possible with CryptoNight algo.

Maybe not with a shiny brand new i7, but with a CPU like the opteron 6276, that costs 20$ used on ebay. But to profit in any serious way would mean to have lots of these CPUs and very cheap electricity :)
