GPU Mining Profitability Calculator

Use this calculator to estimate the potential daily, monthly, and annual profitability of your GPU mining setup. Please note that cryptocurrency mining profitability is highly volatile and depends on factors like coin price, network difficulty, and energy costs.

Understanding GPU Mining Profitability

GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) mining involves using the computational power of graphics cards to solve complex mathematical problems, which in turn verifies transactions on a blockchain network. As a reward for this work, miners receive newly minted cryptocurrency and transaction fees. The profitability of GPU mining is a dynamic equation influenced by several key variables:

Key Factors Affecting Profitability:

1. Hashrate (MH/s): This is the speed at which your mining hardware can process cryptographic hashes. A higher hashrate means more attempts to solve the block, increasing your chances of earning rewards. Different cryptocurrencies use different hashing algorithms, so a GPU's hashrate can vary significantly between coins (e.g., Ethereum's Ethash vs. Ravencoin's KawPow).
2. Power Consumption (Watts): Mining is an energy-intensive process. The power consumed by your GPU(s) and associated hardware (CPU, motherboard, risers, fans) directly impacts your electricity bill. Efficient GPUs that offer a high hashrate for lower power consumption are generally more profitable.
3. Electricity Cost ($/kWh): This is one of the most critical factors. If your electricity cost is high, it can quickly erode any potential profits, sometimes even leading to losses. Miners often seek locations with cheap electricity.
4. Coin Price ($): The market value of the cryptocurrency you are mining is paramount. A surge in coin price can turn an unprofitable mining operation into a highly lucrative one, and vice-versa.
5. Network Difficulty: As more miners join a network, the difficulty of solving blocks increases. This means it takes more computational power to find a block, reducing the rewards for individual miners unless their hashrate increases proportionally. Difficulty adjustments are a core mechanism of many blockchains to maintain consistent block times.
6. Mining Pool Fees (%): Most individual miners join mining pools to combine their hashrate and receive more consistent, albeit smaller, payouts. Pools charge a percentage fee for their services.
7. Hardware Cost (ROI): While not directly part of daily profit, the initial investment in GPUs and other mining equipment is crucial for calculating your Return on Investment (ROI). A calculator focused on daily profit typically assumes hardware costs are a sunk cost for the immediate period.

How to Use This Calculator:

To get an accurate estimate, you'll need to find current values for your specific setup:

• GPU Hashrate: You can find this by looking up benchmarks for your specific GPU model and the algorithm you plan to mine (e.g., "RTX 3080 Ethash hashrate").
• GPU Power Consumption: This can often be found in GPU specifications or measured with a power meter at the wall. Remember to account for the entire system's power draw if you're calculating for a full rig.
• Electricity Cost: Check your utility bill for your rate per kilowatt-hour.
• Daily Revenue per MH/s: This is the most volatile input. Websites like WhatToMine, MinerStat, or NiceHash provide real-time profitability estimates per MH/s for various coins. Use a current value from one of these sources.
• Mining Pool Fees: Check the website of your chosen mining pool for their fee structure.

By inputting these values, the calculator will provide an estimated net daily, monthly, and annual profit, helping you assess the viability of your GPU mining venture.
