Hello Again All. Wink It's Seems I Might Be Getting a New PC Sometime Next Month Grin It Comes With A Nvidia GT 610.
Does Anybody Here Know The Mhash/s Rate Of This Card? If So Please Tell Me. Thanks. PS: I Checked The Wiki Page and
It Doesn't Show... Hence My Question.

The GT 610 isn't Kepler like the high end 6xx cards, it's Fermi like the 5xx series. In fact, it's the same core as the GT 520.

A GTX 550 Ti gets 45MH/s according to the Hardware Wiki. Compared to the GTX 550 Ti, the GT 610/520 has 1/4 of the CUDA cores, and 10% lower clock speeds. You're looking at about 9-10 MH/s.

You should invest in an AMD card. AMD/ATI card's are best for mining.

My hard drive died and I lost all my bitcoins, help me out? 19BsFvdjtVDPHhdcYqBUi1bZ9xRopzbRjC

There are just 110 days before the block reward drop occurs.  

After that, It won't matter which GPU is best for mining (for everyone who pays for electricity), sorry.

110 days is still plenty of time to pay off any ATI GPUs purchased today. And even after the reward half, it all depends on the BTC/USD price. If the reward halfs, but each BTC is worth 2x as much, it'll be just as profitable.

I have a nvidia GT 610 for my main desktop at home, because the card is passively cooled meaning no fan and no noise, and I don't really game. Great  card for a simple desktop.

However...

Why on earth are you asking about a nvidia card for mining, and worse, a low spec one? Nvidia cards produce about 1/10th of the bitcoin that equivalent AMD cards do, and this one amounts to a whopping 10.6Mhash in my testing.

NICE,,,,, Pretty good man,,, you can make a bitcoin in 420 days of 24/7 mining with that bad boy (not really)

Don't capitalize EVERY single word in your posts. It's EXTREMELY annoying.

Anyways, you would be lucky to get any more than 10mhash with a GT610 (probably more like 5). You would be better off getting a used radeon 5830 for $80-100. It can do about 260 mhash with stock core clocks.

Thanks For All Your Replies... BTW I currently have a MSI 6570 which gives me between 95 - 110 mhash/s average (for bitcoin)
and 80 - 85 khash/s for litecoin - I know It's not the fastest but I'ts better than nothing, Right? So Maybe I Should Keep This GPU
and Ask The Store To Replace the 610 with IT (the 6570) instead when getting my new PC. PS: speaking of Litecoin - do any of you think
the value will ever increase PROPERLY? Thanks again for all your input Grin

I am getting 17.5 Khs mining LTC with cudaminer.

Save your cudaminer files to C:\CudaMiner and then feel free to use my DOS script as-is.  Smiley

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c start "Batshit.GPU" /BELOWNORMAL C:\CudaMiner\cudaminer.exe -a scrypt -o stratum+tcp://global.wemineltc.com:3334 -u Batshit.GPU -p p4ssword -C 2 -i 0

Who knows?  Someday, 1 LTC might be worth $100,000 or more and all this mining "at a loss" will have been worth it.  Gotta think beyond the now.  My home office server is up 24/7/365 anyway, so wth, right?  I am also running minerd.exe and getting 52 Khs from my CPU (16 threads).  So, a whopping (ha!) ~70 Khs total!!!  Grin

this logic is often repeated, but is false. if you're mining at a loss, it means with the same money spent on electricity, you could buy more LTC than you can mine. why mine when you can buy from exchanges and get more coins for your dollar?

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
