No, no, and no.

Try with Linux or Windows 7\8.1.

You cannot mine ETH and ETC with windows 10 anymore.

But you can still mine other coin like CLO, UBQ, or other ETH-based coin with lower DAG.

If you still want to mine ETH or ETC, consider replacing your windows 10 with LINUX.

Well, as I see everyone suggested you to use Linux but seems no one mentioned that 3GB Vram can be a problem in future. Memory requirements for ETH mining are actually increasing as time passes. If you want short term mining and then plan to sell them, yeah mine but personally I suggest you to sell it, wait a little bit and then buy good gpu (nvidia plans to launch new gpu as far as I know).

not anymore. try used mining altcoins than eth. or you lose profit. so you need taken for goal target [break event point] before mining crypto.

Install Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 and mine without any problem. These systems also don't have such quantity of spying modules as Windows 10.

You should not mine at all with that hardware. With my new 1070 I started mining a year ago but stopped now for 3 month. The output on what your mining is hardly covering the power comsumption and your hardware is very likly to fail sooner or later. I get out only a 1/6 of what I got at the beginning and the price is not even doubled. Compared to cost about 80-90% for power and the rest is used for amortisation.
