GPU Mining Profit Calculator
Real-time earnings for 500+ GPUs across 50+ algorithms — filter by chip, hashrate, power, and profitability
GPU mining remains the most accessible and flexible way to earn cryptocurrency in 2025. Unlike ASICs that lock you into a single algorithm, modern graphics cards like the NVIDIA RTX 40-series and AMD RX 7000-series can mine over 50 different algorithms — from Ethash and KawPow to Autolykos, RandomX, and ProgPow — allowing you to switch coins in seconds based on live profitability. This adaptability is crucial in a volatile market where a coin's price can surge 300% overnight, instantly making it the most profitable target. MinerCompare's GPU calculator tracks 500+ graphics cards with real-time hashrates, power draw, and efficiency metrics pulled directly from mining pools and blockchain explorers. You can filter by chip (AMD vs NVIDIA), VRAM size, power consumption, or even specific algorithms to find the exact card that maximizes your ROI. We factor in your local electricity cost (up to 3 decimal places), pool fees, and current network difficulty to deliver accurate daily, weekly, and monthly profit projections in USD, EUR, GBP, or BTC. Whether you're running a single RTX 3060 or a 12-GPU farm with RX 6700 XTs, our tool shows you net earnings after power costs, helps you optimize overclock settings, and even estimates hardware lifespan based on thermal data. No other calculator combines this level of GPU-specific detail with live market integration and multi-currency support. Start with one card, scale intelligently, and always mine the most profitable coin — all powered by MinerCompare's industry-leading data engine.
Understanding Hashrate Units - H/s, G/s, Sol/s
Not all algorithms measure performance the same way. Learn what H/s, G/s, and Sol/s mean for your mining profitability.
H/s (Hashes/sec)
Standard unit for memory-heavy algorithms like Ethash, KawPow, and Autolykos.
Example: RTX 3070 → 62 MH/s on Ethash
Sol/s (Solutions/sec)
Used by Equihash-based algorithms like Zcash, Bitcoin Gold, and Flux.
Example: RTX 3060 Ti → 190 Sol/s on ZelHash
G/s (Graphs/sec)
Specific to Cuckoo Cycle algorithms like Grin (Cuckatoo31/32) and Cortex.
Example: RTX 3090 → 28 G/s on Cuckaroo29
Why Different Units Matter
Each algorithm type measures performance differently based on its proof-of-work design. A GPU with 85 MH/s on Ethash might only achieve 190 Sol/s on ZelHash or 28 G/s on Cuckaroo29 – these numbers are not directly comparable. Always check profitability in dollars per day, not raw hashrate numbers.

Pro Tip: Focus on Profitability, Not Raw Hashrate
A GPU with 2 G/s on Cuckatoo32 might earn more than one with 580 MH/s on Autolykos. Always compare daily profit in USD/EUR, not hashrate numbers. Use MinerCompare profitability calculator to see real-time earnings across all algorithms.
How to Use the GPU Miner Profit Calculator
Calculate the profitability of your GPU miner in four simple steps.
Visit MinerCompare.com
Head to the GPU Miners page, your free GPU mining profit calculation tool covering graphics cards across dozens of algorithms.
Search or sort by profit
Use the search bar to find your exact graphics card, or sort the table by Daily Profit to see which GPU miner ranks best right now across every algorithm it supports.
Set your electricity cost
Every GPU on this page starts with a default rate of $0.08/kWh for the GPU mining profit calculation. Enter your real electricity cost for a precise GPU miner profit calculation.
Open a GPU for the full breakdown
Click any graphics card to see its profitability across every algorithm it supports, not just its single best coin, so you can compare and switch as prices shift.
Calculating GPU mining profit is a little different from ASIC mining profit calculation, because a single graphics card can usually mine dozens of algorithms rather than just one. Our GPU mining profit calculation compares live cryptocurrency prices, current network difficulty, and block rewards across every algorithm a card supports, then subtracts electricity costs at your chosen rate. The default rate is $0.08/kWh. This is why the table ranks GPUs by their single most profitable algorithm today, while the dedicated page for each card shows the full picture across every coin it can mine. Whether you are comparing a single GPU miner profit calculation or scanning the entire ranked table for the best GPU mining profit available right now, MinerCompare updates every figure continuously so your decisions are always based on current network conditions.
Why Efficiency Matters More Than Raw Hashrate
Two GPUs with identical hashrate can have very different electricity bills. The one that earns less per megahash but draws less power often wins on net profit.
W/MH: the GPU efficiency metric
GPU mining efficiency is expressed in watts per megahash (W/MH). A card drawing 120W at 60 MH/s runs at 2.0 W/MH. A card drawing 80W at 60 MH/s after undervolting runs at 1.33 W/MH — same hashrate, 33% lower electricity cost, meaningfully higher net profit at any electricity rate.
Undervolting: same hashrate, lower power
Most GPUs ship with more voltage than mining algorithms need. Reducing core voltage in MSI Afterburner or HiveOS while keeping memory clock unchanged typically cuts power draw 20–30% with zero hashrate loss on memory-heavy algorithms like Ethash and Autolykos. It also lowers temperatures, reducing fan wear and extending card lifespan.
Algorithm-specific tuning
Optimal overclock settings are algorithm-specific, not card-specific. A memory overclock that adds 8 MH/s on Ethash may do nothing on KawPow, which is more core-dependent. If you switch coins frequently, maintain separate overclock profiles per algorithm in HiveOS or NiceHash — applying the wrong profile to the wrong algorithm wastes power without adding hashrate.
Same GPU, before and after undervolting
A typical RTX 3070 on Autolykos at stock vs undervolted settings. Same daily coin earnings, very different electricity bill.

When Does It Actually Make Sense to Switch Coins?
Flexibility is GPU mining's biggest advantage over ASICs. But switching too often costs more than it earns. Here's how to read the signals.
Good reasons to switch
Sustained profitability gap of 15%+
A coin paying 15% more per day that holds that edge for 12+ hours is worth switching to. A 5% gap that appeared an hour ago probably won't survive the difficulty adjustment that follows.
Your current coin approaches a halving
A halving cuts daily earnings roughly in half overnight. If your coin's halving is imminent and no price rally compensates, moving to an alternative algorithm weeks beforehand is straightforward planning, not speculation.
Network difficulty spikes without a price move
If a coin's hashrate jumps — usually because new hardware launched — but the price hasn't followed, your share of the reward just shrank. That's the clearest signal to evaluate alternatives.
Bad reasons to switch
A small temporary price spike
A coin spiking 20% in price will attract more miners within hours, pushing difficulty up and shrinking your earnings. By the time your rig switches and settles, the window is often already closed.
PPLNS pool balance you'd forfeit
If you're on a PPLNS pool and haven't hit minimum payout, switching resets your share window. The profitability gain has to outweigh both the forfeited balance and the cold-start earnings penalty.
Different algorithm needing different overclock
Switching from a memory-bound algorithm to a core-bound one without updating overclock profiles means you're running the wrong settings. The new coin's efficiency will be worse than the calculator showed until you retune.
The GPU table on this page ranks every card by its single best algorithm right now. Open any GPU to see profitability across every coin it can mine — so you can compare your current coin against alternatives before deciding whether a switch is genuinely worth it.
Not only about GPUs
MinerCompare covers ASIC hardware, every mineable coin, and a full fleet portfolio tool. Here's where else you might want to go.
