Hi,
I'm trying to hit the Bitcoin lottery with my gaming computer. I'll see where it goes. When I put in the command line;
appdata\roaming\bitcoin\bitcoin.conf
the computer merely opens the conf file and not the Bitcoin wallet. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for the help

Sigh, for one, try reading stickied posts like this one, they may answer your question right off the bat...
In this case mainly point-3.

So much waste of power and money if you stay mining with GPUs but I haven't heard yet of someone successful mining on sha256 algo with GPUs.
Mining Bitcoin requires ASIC units so I think you can't mine with your GPUs for solo mining if I were you try mining altcoin instead bring your thread on this section below.

If you want to join the solo race I advise buying a BitAxe stand alone miner.

This will get you hashing away don't burn out your GPU on your machine trying while you CAN still hash the odds of a find on a GPU or PC today are astronomical. 

You can get a Bitaxe from https://www.thesolomining.co/  and the main developer is active on the forum.

Buy the miner,  point it at the solo pool  https://solo.ckpool.org

And hope for a big share!

Good luck!

hmm use a 1000 usd plus gaming machine
burn 400 plus watts.


or buy a 165 dollar specialty miner. that burns 140 watts.

so burn 400 plus vs 140

and get .003th of hash vs  4th. about 130 times the hash power for the nano 3


to put it another way the nano 3 should take about 3000 years to hit a block

and your gpu should take 3,914,000 years to hit a block



odds are here

https://solochance.org/.    a gpu at best will do 3gh

a nano 3 will do  4th

so it is 1300 x 1 more likely to get a block with the nano 3

you can buy one below

here is one on ebay

https://www.ebay.com/itm/145705867477?


please note I do not know the seller.


the nano 3 is 2x faster than the bitaxe

at the moment the nano 3 crushes all low priced weak asic miners.

and all of the weak asic miners absolutely Destroy pc mining.

the nano 3 should take 3000 years to hit a block cost with psu is 200
the bitaxe should be     5800 years to hit a block
the Apollo ii should be 1500 years to hit a block but it costs 700 to 2000 usd
sidehack's r909 should be 6200 years to hit a block cost is 400 usd
