Title: Anything left worth mining with Free AC on 280x Cards?
Post by: Stratobitz on November 07, 2014, 07:29:43 PM
My rigs have been turned off for a while. Just wondering if there was anything worth mining if Power is Free - and the rigs are already built and paid for.

I have 280x Rigs...

Thanks in advance!

in your particular case everything is worth mining... (if you don't live in a warm place)

Diamond is always at the top of the list for profitability.

Excellent algo.  Doesn't hog your entire system, easy to work, watch vids, whatever, still hashes away.

Just ran across the optimized kernel thread.

If you have a favorite coin that you truely believe in try jumping into its multipool and try supporting it, or you can try and get lucky and mine shitcoins at launch

Actually I have the same "problem".
I have free electricity (and 280X graphics cards that I am using only for gaming right now) but I turned off my rigs in summer because it was too hot in my room. So I need to know what to mine that it is worth suffering noise (as heat is no more a problem).

A lot of people have free electricity and rigs sitting around.  I don't get a sense of bragging.  I actually see posts similar to this all the time.

Everyone can interpret things differently

I do not understand why you're doing problems about what to mine, if you have free electricity ..
although, if you mine the less profitable coin, you will always have a gain ...

no?????

I guess just mine what you feel like mining and not from multipool/nicehash etc...

Because rigs require "some" time. They have to be checked, rebooted, there are issues that pop up. Pools go down, coins go down. Nothing is just set and go.

So while i have 60 280x cards... My question was, if its 10 cents a day, rational, because for 6 bucks a day its not worth my time.

Thanks to those who provided input!

Yes the biggest annoyance even in the winter is the heat and also the noise. Sometimes its better to just have piece and quiet.
