Hi everyone, i would like to know how much i would spend mining altcoins and litecoin using a 7950 with the power set to +20, for about 4 hours a day with around 0,25/0,30$ per kw/h.
Also, would change something if i mine using the gpu, on a rig with an overclocked i5 3570k, speaking of electricity costs? (4.4GHz against the stock 3.4)
Can someone help me? Thanks Smiley

CPU doesnt matter for GPU mining, your electricity costs are high... Check profitability here:

Since 7950 is around 200w it will cost you around 6-7$ / month. But you should see the actual wattage on the wall.
In any case i don't think that it will be more than 10$ / month
