Miners are eyeing laptops – mobile GeForce RTX 3060 will provide $ 1100 in revenue per year

Many gamers prefer laptops. These are compact devices that allow you to indulge in your hobby almost anywhere. You can take your laptop with you on vacation, on a trip or on a trip. Not only that, modern laptops are equipped with good graphics cards that allow you to get excellent graphics at high settings. Traditionally, this class of gaming devices has always been more expensive than desktop computers. It looks like not enough to scare off the miners.

Yesterday, the results of the profitability of a laptop equipped with a mobile video card GeForce RTX 3060 (Max-P) appeared. As it turned out, mining in standard mode reaches 49MH / s, which is on par with the RTX 2080 Super. Note that only one such video card is currently sold for more than $ 1000, as the rush demand has caused a strong increase in prices.

If you use the Ethereum mining calculator, then it is easy to draw a simple conclusion: mining on laptops will not become massive, but non-professional miners can buy up laptops, since they are extremely profitable. Turning to the numbers: $ 93 in net income per month or more than $ 1,100 per year. This is not the price of a laptop yet, but the logic is simple. The user can use part of the time, for example, 7 hours, for work, and the remaining 16 or more – for mining.

The time of homegrown miners has come, and the temptation to connect your laptop to mining cryptocurrency is too great. If this continues, then we will not see compact gaming laptops at adequate prices on sale.
