Ethereum mining still profitable?

[Eliovp]

not profitable for me anymore, diff to high and price lower than before

If your electricity price is high, you have to undervoltage and underclock the graphics cards to make them more efficient.

undervolatage and under clock will make the mining more profitable ?? I do not think so... You will get less hash for less consumption , that is it

So not true.. check my nano rom thread in my signature..

[fricircled]

But the Ethereum difficulty is still rising, and it is rising very fast. So in a few weeks, not many people will make profit.

The eth mining is still profitable for dig but by day by diff higer. we will see , what will we do...
 

That is true. The difficulty is another all time high today. So only the people with cheap electricity can mine next month.

guys could you recommend eth pool you are mining with? thx

I mine with Ethpool.org. It is very good. All my miners are pointing to that pool. It is quite reliable so far.

you may try suprnova and dwarfpool

I long for the day the 2GB cards can no longer mine.

dwarfpool is the best with the proxy, i'm getting the reward that the calcualtor say

I undervolt (-100mV) and overclock (+30/+50) a little. I have a bigger hashrate and about 20% less power usage. (about 50-70W with 390x).

I started with suprnova, now I mine at ethermine.org, I receive almost double eth with the same hashrate. I recomend ethermine.org they are really good.

I think its not profitable to mine ethereum right now here in my country with current cost of 0.1cents because more people from bitcoin mining are converting into etherium mining.. and i think more difficulty for ethereum will come sooner.. if they release a new hardware with high speed mining rig..

i seriously doubt that.. bitcoin mining hardware will not work on the ethereum network. mining with gpu's is considerably more involved than what bitcoin ASIC technology has evolved to.

there will not be any "new hardware" with high speed mining for the ethereum network because

1) they have implemented safeguards that change things up every epoch or 30,000 blocks
2) its common knowledge proof of stake is an eventuality of this network.. meaning all hardware mining work is disregarded and the currently circulated coins themselves are the sole source for minting fresh ether.

not to say a new fast video card cant be released, but thats not going to bridge the gap from gpu to asic by any means.

wrong, it's profitable up to 0.3 cent right now, so with 0.1 cent is still more than enough to have profit, re do your math

That is right for the efficient miners. But the difficulty is rising fast. At this rate, it will not be profitable in 3 months.

140MH ETH + 2.8GH DCR, 1380W/ 140MH ETH only 1180W... turns unprofitable somewhere in 0.5/kWh area.

You Ethereum miner is quite efficient. 140MH ETH only 1180W. What are the GPU and the settings or configuration?

Probably R9 Nano's but lets see

mine is 132 MH with only 1kw, six 970 rig, very stable, +150 on both core and mem, iot give you almost 1.5 ethereum per day

Nanos aren't all that efficient at mining Ethereum - probably for similar reasons anything much past the R9 280/380 aren't either.

 They're OK on a hash/W basis but pretty bad on a hash/$ basis - R9 280 / R9 280x / R9 380 are all a TON better on hash/$ while being competative on hash/W.

 My triple GTX950 soaks a little under 350 watts to do a bit over 30 MH/s - but that's with an A10-7860k running Prime95 on all 4 CPUs *AND* dnetc RC-5 on the GPU (it doesn't have enough memory to mine with) so if I went to a more efficient build I could get that under 300 watts without trying hard.



 AMD cards are definitely the way to go for Ethereum on a Hash/$ basis, but Nvidia Maxwell cards (other than the 750Ti, not enough memory) are pretty competative on Hash/W basis despite being way down on hashrate vs "comparable" AMD cards.



 Only reason I went Nvidia on the 2 machines I have mining Ethereum is that the ORIGINAL plan for those machines was FAH - where Nvidia DOES blow AMD out of the water (a GTX970 is capable of better PPD per every comparison I've seen to ANYTHING AMD has out currently except the dual Fury card and MAYBE the Nano/Fury - for LESS power usage).
 
AMD on the other hand blows Nvidia off the bloody PLANET on RC5 work, my ancient HD7870 outhashes my GTX970s by about 15% when both are not OC despite being a 5+ year OLDER design and having the same number of Stream units as the 970s have CUDA units - keep in mind that AMD cards have 1.5-2X the Stream units vs the "comparable" NVidia card.

[RastoMan]

Nano is more power efficient than the R9 390. But its ROI dates are much longer than the 390. So it depends on your power price.
