Title: Curious about energy costs with 7950 Post by: RyuBlade94 on December 15, 2013, 09:35:53 PM Hi everyone, i would like to know how much i would spend mining altcoins and litecoin using a 7950 with the power set to +20, for about 4 hours a day with around 0,25/0,30$ per kw/h.
Also, would change something if i mine using the gpu, on a rig with an overclocked i5 3570k, speaking of electricity costs? (4.4GHz against the stock 3.4) Can someone help me? Thanks :) Title: Re: Curious about energy costs with 7950 Post by: majorX on December 15, 2013, 09:47:51 PM Hi everyone, i would like to know how much i would spend mining altcoins and litecoin using a 7950 with the power set to +20, for about 4 hours a day with around 0,25/0,30$ per kw/h.

Since 7950 is around 200w it will cost you around 6-7$ / month. But you should see the actual wattage on the wall. In any case i don't think that it will be more than 10$ / month Title: Re: Curious about energy costs with 7950 Post by: RyuBlade94 on December 16, 2013, 11:19:42 AM I already calculated the profitability, but i just want to know exactly how i'm going to spend for electricity.
