I've had to double check a few times the year when the OP made this post and since its "2018" it makes absolutely no sense to mine SC with GPUs now. Its basically all dominated by ASICs. Even with free electric its not worth the extra heat of dual-mining SC.

SC was worth mining back in 2016 before there was pools and you were forced to solo mine it , when you found a block you got like 250,000 SC.

Second time when it was worth mining was in June 2017 by dual mining it with ETH, I think with an RX 480, you could of made an extra $2/day/per GPU on top of your regular ETH mining income.

Now it doesn't make any more sense to mine SC. No idea why this guide was even created.

This. Used to be a neat little extra to dual mine, but now you may as well heat the room by burning fiat of your choice instead of mining sia...

Bitmain asic was blocked via fork?

As far as i know any plans by the SIA dev team to block bitmain is only plans. I'm actually quite disappointed with the slow speed of the SIA dev team to do anything. Most likely others feel the same way and is the reason is slowly going down in value.

If SIA still wants to be relevant in crypto then it better make some changes soon.

Personally, I appreciate it! Thumb-up!

But I also agree with a few comments above, maybe too late to make that tutorial, it will worth if you write it before SIA's ASIC exist (but may not, if it only for beginners guideline). But still will be better to make something relevant, e.g., some tutorial to mine any coins that still worth using the device that used on the tutorials that you made.

Seriously mate? Just wake up from coma? I'd use ASIC for Siacoin.

It is a guide for beginners who can not afford ASICs and who want to know what is going on with these mining rigs.

I don't know how profitable or not using graphic cards for sia now but ASIC is really profitable. Sia is also very good project but it can't compete with centralized ones now for me.

Why it can't compete with centralized ones?

I suggest you to move this topic to the altcoin mining section to have the related discussion,but as others said the ASIC mining is profitable for Siacoin but if someone have the graphics card wothout any use then they can try mining that and store them for the future use because Siacoin is one of the coin believed by many people to go to moon.

Hey guys! We've made an simple guide on how to mine Sia Coin using graphic cards.
We are using nVidia graphic cards, so on another cards it probably will not work.

I think the money that you earn from this not enough to buy a new computer. If you would like to become a miner, you should use a specific device for mining.
