Very new to mining crypto and had a general question. I have two Nvidia Quadro NVS 295 gpus that a friend gave me, I was wondering if it would be profitable to use both of these with a Intel Core i7-6500u (2.2Ghz) laptop? If anyone could tell me the hashrate and other specs of these gpus, and if it would be possible to use both to mine, it would be very much appreciated!

Thank you

Those are very old cards (9 years) with only 256 mb of memory. Unfortunately you will not be able to mine on them. You need much more current technology.


Also, you never ever want to mine on a laptop. They are not made for 24/7 at 100% usage and you will drastically shorten its lifespan.

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

Thank you for the feedback. If I were to use both of them on a desktop, would I be able to mine small amounts of Monero, or not at all?

Thanks

As I said, it is a 9 year old card. You wont ever mine enough to even send it from a pool to a wallet.
