Title: GPU mining, any use left for it? Post by: chrisbasket on December 02, 2015, 10:48:05 PM Hello :)
I have been a long time off any mining activity (last time I was actively mining the LTC was 40$ a piece). Are there any coins left that can be mined via GPU usages and still result in profit? I do not have free power, so that could very well be what tips the scale against such a case. Still, even the slightest profit would be enough to make me try.

get the ones with 6-pin extra power plug required, i have seen many reports of that helping with overclocking, while staying stable but the key is .... if you can have fun then maybe you might even make a few $'s :) Title: Re: GPU mining, any use left for it?

Scrypt has been dead on GPU for years now, however take a look at nicehash/westhash and see if your card manages any profit on the other algorithms. Title: Re: GPU mining, any use left for it?

There are 3 folding coins to mine with gpus, so that at least you mine for a good cause. One is Gridcoin which is rallying and I'm currently mining. Unfortunately the mining setup is a PITA on linux, so I can mine just with my mule. Title: Re: GPU mining, any use left for it? Post by: Rotator on January 20, 2016, 06:55:26 PM Mining with gpu? Can someone confirm profitability of mining?
What are you mining and with what gpu is best? Title: Re: GPU mining, any use left for it? Post by: QuintLeo on January 20, 2016, 08:45:42 PM I use them as space-heaters in the winter.

X11 coins can be mined for a profit if you have fairly low electric cost and an efficient setup. Haven't paid attention to anything else for a long time, as way too many of the "other than Scrypt/SHA256/X11" coins are fairly hard to find reliable exchanges for.

But there is no guarrantee how long you can mine it profitably.
