With the run that BTC is having, decided to fire up the mining rig to see if it was worthwhile again. I was running this in 2018 until BTC took a dive.
2 x Xeon E5-2680 processors (16 cores)
2 x GTX 1060 6GB cards
Profitability averages around $3.30 a day with the above setup. So $100 a month (before power) for just leaving it on isn’t bad. Still need to figure out exact power costs, but I estimate it to be around $25 a month, based on the last time I did this, and used a smart plug that had power measurements.
Most of my BTC portfolio was mined and just grew, especially with the current run, so I’m hoping things repeat itself.
