Topic: Lotto every night with casual mining? (Read 448 times)
if you are going to solo mine, at least use a AMD card. Otherwise, mine LTC may give you more fun.
Thanks guys. Yeah i guess 50C isnt bad. It runs around 60C when i play games(skyrim/cs:go at high). My only concern was the core load, but thats also 99% while gaming anyways. And i get the point about elec and all but i keep my laptop on most of the time anyways.. probably off 10 hours a week.. Yay technology!! 
Thanks again!
Doing something you enjoy for money sometimes becomes a chore. :/

50 C is not really a whole lot of heat. My GPU sits at 75 degrees C in cgminer 24x7 and I have not had any problems with it. If you want your GPU to last 10 years you probably don't want to run at 100% load, but it should be totally fine for years until it becomes obsolete.
Of course I should warn you that it is a waste of resources to mine with something that costs more electricity than it gets you as coins, but of course the 'fun factor' is something only you can decide 
.
I don't think this is bad for the card as long as the temperature is kept stable, but then again I am not a pro on computer hardware.

Hi all, before i get started i just want to say that yes i know its stupid to mine on nvidia cards but its what i have and i just wanna have some fun. So i set everything to low and temps and all are fine. the only thing is my GPU core load is constantly at 99%. Is that bad for it? The GPU temp stabalizes at 50C.
