Title: Just for experimental purpose
Post by: SadGoodbye on September 30, 2022, 08:17:56 PM
I got a card from a cousin of mine, a GTX 980 and it plays games on my desktop very well bit I can't get it to work with Nicehash, I got error here and there, as per my old post on here I want to use this card as experiment to dive into how crypto mining works and now I don't know, is there any mining app that can work with GTX 980? Thank you

Try to use NiceHash Legacy Forkfix
https://www.nicehash.com/blog/post/nicehash-miner-legacy-1-9-0-22

Or you can mine directly, without Nicehash
Which coin do you want to mine? I can suggest a miner for you

Try mining ethereum classic
https://miningpoolstats.stream/ethereumclassic
Install the latest video card drivers and try all the miners that the pools offer you.
miner download links

Try to find a working miner. Although what do you want to get? 6 cents in Ethereum Classic coins every day with a payment for electricity several times more.

It is better look each miner and read which one still supports cuda 9 i guess. If miner supports and you have chosen right coin for that it will work.
