are you sure all of your GPUs are mining with a proper drivers?

before getting involved in mining you better learn some basic things:
1) how to install windows
2) install GPU drivers
3) overclock your GPUs
4) start with nicehash
5) learn more about different algos/miners and how to set it up
6) learn more about mining profitability on different algos/coins for your cards
Thats the basics which can be easily found on google, or youtube, or siri whichever is easiest for you

I think you are joking but I'm not sure. You know that the money you see up there is not what you made but the balance you have to use smos right?

AHAHAHAHH I was about to say that

it started at 0.20$ the moment i started and the more i mine the less it goes down. so i thought that meant i owe that money. i dont think i said that was money i made

yes, i dont want to mine etherium with these cards because i know the rx are better at that. i been mining eth because i cant change the settings. when i click "console" all it does is spin. is it because i need to pay the $2 in full? or what?

Well without clicking that shady link and just by reading the title

I am assuming this guy is mining Bitcoins with his GPU. Still pretty impressive to earn 9 cents of BTC per 1.5 days with GPUs.

can someone tell me why in the title?

im hashing 115mh/s, i have 2 1070 and 2 1070ti all averaging about 28 to 29mh/s. i didnt mess with any of the settings except the overclocking. so it is mining sia and eth. it wont connect to sia pool so its only mining eth. because i just joined simple mining os, i have a 3 day trial, but it says my balance is .20$ (im guessing that means 20 cents) so based off of that it looks like it only mined 9 cents in 1.5 days. whats going on?

Don't mine eth... This isn't good choice for your cards.

I think 1070 is good for ETH.

Also, I don't use Simple Mining but in that screenshot it says "Fee Balance."  Simple mining charges $2 per month per rig, so after a day and a half, 11 cents of fee accumulation sounds right.

hey, thanks for responding, i really appreciate the help. its really frustrating trying to troubleshoot

all the pool settings are stock. primary is dwarfpool, then secondary is ethpool and the third is the sia coin

For one, take SIA out of the equation, as there is now an ASIC miner for it, so you will be literally losing money mining it.  To fully figure out what is going on, take a couple of screenshots of  your pool worker stats
