according to https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin-mining-calculator/

even if i put 0s for watts, power cost and hardware costs it is still 0? I have 8gig dedicated ram 7750ish radeon and a good fan.

EDIT: I've just realised this is the Bitcoin mining forum. I'd look into altcoins with your setup.

I have always found myself using this website instead...
https://whattomine.com/coins

Just double check the power consumption. Whattomine says each of my R9 380s uses 130w for Equihash but my whole system (i3-6100, 2 x R9 380, 2 sticks RAM, 650w PSU, M.2 SSD and no fans!) uses 380w. Thats just using the GPUs.
Incidently, when mining XMR using 2 R9 380s and my i3-6100 I only use 360w.

I bought a £10 monitor.

I'm not too clued up on the different GPUs but I think the 7750 is quite efficient on power, but it probably wont hash very quickly.

Yes it's correct. Mining bitcoin on GPUs and CPUs became obsolete 4 years ago.

ask ck to move this to alt coincoins

mine an alt coin with the gpu and trade it for btc.


rent your hash to  nicehash.

you can do zec with the radeon and xmr with the cpu

earn about 1 dollar a day


this thread has info on mining that could help you

HD 7750 will do 50-60 sol/s appx on ZEC mining.
I'm not sure on the power, but believe it would be less than 50 watts on ZEC - the ones I used were all in low-end single-card machines and the total system power swamped the GPU power usage.

 Forget trying to mine Bitcoin (or any other SHA 256 based coin), Litecoin/Doge (or any other Scrypt coin), or DASH (or any other X11/X13/X15/qubit coins) on it as those all have ASIC-based miners available and no GPU can compete.
I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!
