Week 1 - Mining rig

Week 1 - Mining rig


This will be the last of my starting the blogging post. I want to describe the mining ring setup. I am planning to write about the profitability of it later.

Why?

A week ago I have managed to acquire the old gaming PC.  Currently, the spec is quite low, it has the i5 and GTX 1050TI. My plan was to try to mine some Etherium and Monero. I still think that it was a good purchase. I know that price of 1050 is around the price I have paid for the whole rig. Another issue is if I can have any return on my investment, in the end, I bought it to earn some money not just for fun, but I will write another post about it later when I will have some more data of my earning.

 

What I am mining.

The first thing I have discovered is that my GPU is too week to mine any reasonable Etherium in a reasonable time. Because of that, I have switched to RavenCoin and I mine around 50RVN per week, again I am still gathering data on how profitable is this mining. 

Additionally, I have found a few hard disks and started farming the Chia. Again I am not sure how much money I can earn per week/month and if I should continue it. I will write a separate post about setting up Chia and starting farming in it. However, there are a few issues, like no support for pooling, with the coin for now.

 

What's next

I am planning to do regular updates on my earnings with mining. I have also found and invested in a few profit investing sites( no idea is this name is good but it is not staking) so I will describe how my start with Harvest Finance as well.
