Hi there,
I'm writing this becase I would like to know your opinion about mining with gaming hardware...
Many manufacturers don't like the idea that people could use their hardware for mining 'cause they *reasons*...
I would like to know your opinion  Grin
Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Any sources on manufacturer discontent on GPU mining?
I see no reason aside from warranties, and I'm fairly certain they take 100% 24/7 usage into account regardless.

This doesnt work with BTC mining, you should ask the question in the Altcoin section.
