Title: How many BTC per week with one graphic card? Post by: johngo on August 09, 2011, 09:13:02 AM Hi,
How many Bitcoins could I produce actually in one week with one graphic card? Best regards, John Title: Re: How many BTC per week with one graphic card? Post by: Cellcote on August 09, 2011, 09:20:06 AM Depends on what graphics card. AMD GPU's will be much better than Nvidia GPU's. See here (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison) for a list of graphics cards. You can then input the speed in megahash/s in this (http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php) calculator

Title: Re: How many BTC per week with one graphic card? Post by: bcforum on August 09, 2011, 01:29:56 PM I get about 0.25 BTC/day with a 6970. FYI, the Mining Comparison wiki page isn't useful except for general comparison. Insufficient information regarding OS/drivers/kernel/sdk is provided to reproduce many of the numbers quoted.

Well, it may not be an exact source of information but it will give a general idea of what a GPU could of will be able to achieve Title: Re: How many BTC per week with one graphic card?

Title: Re: How many BTC per week with one graphic card? Post by: hgaunt56 on August 09, 2011, 09:29:10 PM If you can get a decent deal on some graphics cards then I think it's totally worth it. I only have an Nvidia Geforce GTX 260 which is getting me just shy of 40 Mhash/s. I'm looking to find a good deal on some 5850's or 5870's or anything in that range. I am also a gamer so even if the market is kinda blah, then I'll still have a great upgrade to my graphics while (slowly) paying off the hardware. Even though I haven't really gotten into serious mining yet, after all the research I've done, you may not want to invest into anything dedicated solely to mining until you know for sure it can be profitable. If you can justify the cost via other uses then totally go for it. (Not having to pay for electricity has its perks..) :)
