So, I've been making $5-$15 a day with my gaming computer...

So, I checked my computer's power usage and draw - at full 100% usage it costs $19 in electricity to keep running 24/7


I started mining (nicehash, and monero, and etherium) by just keeping the program running every night or when not gaming.  I put it on a laptop I had too.


And it's been between $5-15/day earnings.  

Just a heads up, anyone who wants their computer to pay for itself (or to pay for your next upgrade!)

So do you mean you make 5-15 after 19 for electricity , so that would b e at the high end of 25 a day?
Or is it just 5-15 a day then the cost of electricity that day cause that would be a loss?

I think he meant 19 per month to run the PC and he earned 5-15 per day.  Nothing in my house cost 19 doolars a day to run

Right, so far I've got $300 saved up just from running the mining software on the side

Tempting to use it to buy another video card, so I can earn twice as much twice as fast...

So I installed the software on 2 PC's and have had it running for 12 hours now with an earning of .23 cents before electricity costs. I must be doing something wrong here.

I did notice that my Norton's pulled a few viruses out while installing the program... could this be the problem?

Tek. Depending on the port and hardware of your system is depending on how much hash return you'll get. I use the xmr Nvidia tool and am hashing something like 200+ an hour with my Alienware laptop.

If I used my Dell laptop for school I would obviously get a lot less hash rate. Seeing as the processor is an i3 and like 2.0 GHz plus the gpu isn't even powerful enough to register as one.

I pulled Norton from my system and used Windows Defender instead. Now it seems to be working a lot better.

Also I don't know what software you use but I would look into MinerGate.com It seems to be the best formatted.
