Do you pay electricity bills ?

Did you build your rig only for mining ? What was the investments for it ?

6-7$ a day, it will take time before you get your ROI (if it's possible)

Do you pay electricity bills ?

Yes. I have access to "relatively" cheap power.


Did you build your rig only for mining ?

Yes.


What was the investments for it ?

1190 euros.

At least 6 - 8 months. I guess it's an experiment.
For a short while NiceHash gave 11+ euro per day as an average. We'll see.

I have hope that BTC will rise in value during the next 6 months or so.

Do your maths to see how much electricity bill you have per day according to your rig consumption.

Then, if you try mining btc with a computer... it's not worth of it. You may burn components by mining 24/24 7/7 before you get your ROI.

Also think the difficulty still increase. Today it's 6-7$ but in 3 months it could be 3-4$ > https://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency is a nice tool to make your maths for ROI.

https://www.nicehash.com/?p=calc is a good tool too.

I thought NiceHash mined several alt-coins but not btc? NiceHash just pays in BTC, right?

Hmm, was that picture taken today?

Strange that you're making 7.11 eur/day, it should be well under 6 eur/day by today's calculations...

Yes, Nicehash pays in BTC directly.

Yes, taken today. The average earnings per day seem to fluctuate a bit.
5.68 as we speak.

Only for a short while. It was Pascal I believe.


Edited to add:

7.32 now. I'll let you know when 24 hours have passed.
