I asked this to the helpful folks at btc stck exnge but they basically told me to piss off. What are the hashrates for mining with a MSI GTX 760 OC 2gb card for Equihash, Cryptonight, Cryptonight light, etc.? What is the power usages? A lot of the info on the web is either outdated or for ETH which you can't mine anymore with 2gb. Unless... can you mine ETH if you use 2x 2gb?

No you need more than 2gb per card to mine eth. You basically have a card that is old enough and power hungry enough that you will not make uch of a profit if any mining. If you want to mine you need to buy something that is current, otherwise you are just making heat and wasting electricity.

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

You can check hashrates for some algorithms in bench sections on zpool.ca and yiimp.eu websites. Or you can benchmark your card with Nicehash miner. I am afraid mining with gtx 760 can only be profitable if you have free or very cheap electricity.

You shouldn't mine with this card unless you simply want to mine just to experience what mining feels like, in which case you shouldn't worry about hashrates.
But since you asked, you should expect about 300H/s mining XMR (Cryptonight), 50-60H/s on Zcash(equihash). Those hashrates are on optimal power, cooling & overclocking conditions.

You can't mine Ethereum with (a) 2GB card(s) no matter what.

Unless you have completely free electricity, do not mine with this card. It's based on old architecture, and it's one of the more lacking of that old architecture. You also can't mine ETH with only 2GB, the DAG size is too big.
