Litecoin mining laptop gpu


NiceHash Miner mines different cryptocurrencies and gives you the money in bitcoin. While it was mining, it was still very usable for everyday tasks because it was using the GPU and not the CPU for mining. Then my computer crashed.

I am pretty sure that the main cause of the crash was the GPU overheating. After it turned back on I ran the miner again and saw that my GPU reached temperatures of up to 72 degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit. But because I am worried about my GPU overheating again.

I will stop for now unless I can find a cooling solution that will prevent it from getting to hot. Honestly, I would advise against it. I mean you may be able to cool it sufficiently, but a decent motherboard and some s since rx s are unavailable is much cheaper and more manageable than replacing a whole laptop.

Then again I have seen some serious alienware laptops with dual tis and serious cooling Just my 2 sense. I have burned a laptop out pretty bad, it still runs but it does cut off spontaneously and is now a glorified chat and spotify box. I run these on 4 s and nothing is above 60 C. I just wanted to do an experiment and see how well a gaming laptop would mine bitcoin.

In the future I will probably pick up a few GPUs and make a proper mining rig. I have burned a laptop out pretty bad, it still runs but it does cut off spontaneously and is now a glorified chat and spotify box. I run these on 4 s and nothing is above 60 C.

I'll follow you, let me know if you want any DIY plans for some open cases I've made. It's always fun to try different systems to see their hashrates, but assuming you would continue this, the electricity bill would get really really big - no profit.
