Unbelievable. I got a second video card added to my make shift mining rig today. I have no clue what I'm doing but it appears to be as easy as plug it in and turn it on. I did have to do a splice job in order to get the other power connector plugged in to the far side of my motherboard, but after that it powered on and booted just fine.
I'm currently mining at minergate.com using their software running Xubuntu as an OS. I was well pleased to find it to be as easy as plug-n-mine. I'm using two nvidia's GTX 750ti's mostly because they are in my pricerange at $129 for refurbished /used card that has 640 cuda cores. They basically get 300 h/s each mining Monero. Not bad, I guess. Sure I'd like to have a couple of GTX 1080ti's in it but I'm poor, I can't afford $1100. In time, as my wallet fills I'll upgrade to a higher core count card but for now I'm gonna buy a couple 2 or 3 more of the 750's and see how things go.
I'd like to get in to solo-mining on some other coins using different software but I'm still new at mining and haven't quite figure out how cgminer or ccminer work exactly and have a lot more reading to do and other pools to look in to. Who says you can't teach an old dawg new tricks tho. I can still learn, I'm not dead yet. Not gonna give up either.
Thanks for stopping by. Gonna get my taped up glasses and get my geek on...

That's the plan. Little by little upgrade to offset work and eventually quit work and just...go to the beach more.

I'm guessing you've noticed my lack of postings of late. I'm still really busy with work. I'm on week number 5 of 6 day work weeks 10 hrs/day. I'm hoping to get back in the black and try to get ahead. I feel like I've barely got time to reply to replies and browse through my feed. It's Friday night I just I just got home, are, showered and I'm off to sleep. Some life. Work, work, work, (deep breathe)... Thank you for the vote of confidence, I really needed it tonight. Give me some time I'll get there. God bless and have a great evening.
