IF electricity is inexpensive. I know there are very few places where electricity is not expensive. Now what if OP is not from such an area, what advice do you give him?
I was only giving him an alternative and it's surely not bad.
I have already said that if your electricity is more expensive than 6-8 cents, then it is better not to engage in mining. But large mining companies have tariffs of 3-5 cents.I was only giving him an alternative and it's surely not bad.
I prefer mining on video cards, because new coins appear and there is a chance to pay back a video card in 6-8 months.
I think asking to get a payback on a certain card for 6-8 months is not possible during such time that we are in.We are still in a crypto winter and this is the best time to collect coins,you either mine them,which is what I do or you invest in them by buying them.Electricity I think is a key factor for people running more than 3-4 rigs while for people running only one rig even if the electricity is a bit high it is still affordable in the sense that people can even pay a bit of loss by waiting for the next crypto craze which can bring insane profits if done right.
Now is not the time for profit and quick payback for video cards, there are a lot of nuances for new miners, because prices in the equipment markets have not yet fallen much.
but 3k not enough for that beast
