Beginners Guide To Mining On Your Gaming PC

In this tutorial I will show you how to set up your gaming PC to mine cryptocurrency. Earning you money while your not playing games. Below I will demonstrate how to install the mining software and start mining your first cryptocurrency in less than five minuets. If you have a single GPU there's only so much you are going to be able to mine, however these daily sums quickly add up to respectable monthly payouts.

There are dozens of ways you can mine so ultimately there are going to be ways that are a little more profitable. However I have chosen the miner that I feel is the easiest to use for a beginner, is well respected and is used by thousands of people world wide.

Here are some examples of what some of the popular cards can do with this miner:

Nice Hash Tutorial

Nice Hash is a simple to use mining application for Windows PC's. It takes all the guess work out of mining and has a bunch of cryptos ready to mine and automatically mines the most profitable one. It even simplifies the payments system too, once a month you get a single payout in Bitcoin so you don't even have the head ache of dealing with a bunch of different coins.

If you don't already have one your going to need a Bitcoin wallet. There are numerous ways you can go about obtaining one. I don't feel right recommending a wallet due to the certain level of insecurity in the crypto scene at these early stages. Have a look around the web and decide which is the best type of wallet for you, all that matters to Nice Hash is that it is a Bitcoin wallet with a static address.

Now that your have a wallet to receive your coins you can head over to the official Nice Hash website (see link below) and download the latest version of there miner program. Once it has downloaded to your computer, open and install the program.

The first time you run Nice Hash it will download and install the miners. Next you need to enter your Bitcoin wallet address and click start, this first time you will need to benchmark the algorithms, this is straight forward and just a case of following the on screen instructions.

Once the benchmarks have been competed, Nice Hash will automatically start mining. Congratulations you are now officially a “Miner”, have fun and once you have a bit more experience remember to research your card a little to see if you can make even more money with a different miner.
