- ≈ There isn’t enough data provided to make an accurate evaluation.
Select a different hardware (If your CPU or GPU is not on the list, it means it’s not profitable for
mining)
- The information on this page contains estimations based on hash rate measurements submitted by our users. Due to software and hardware glitches, some users submit exaggeratedly high or exaggeratedly low hash rates that don’t correspond to reality. Thus, the estimations calculated for some video cards are either too high or too low.
- Please don’t make hardware purchase decisions based solely on this information, or
disappointment may follow. Please do more comprehensive research before purchasing hardware, and confirm the hash
rate and daily income from multiple sources. - Also, keep in mind that the crypto mining income may be highly variable because of multiple factors such as difficulty and exchange rate variation, mining algorithm changes that some coins do from time to time, and even pool luck.
- Make sure you deactivate all your antivirus programs, including Windows Defender’s Live Scanning
feature. All antivirus programs detect mining applications as viruses and delete files from
them, causing them to malfunction. This is called a false positive, a miner doesn’t cause any
harm. - If you understand, type in the box below to proceed with the download:

The functional snapshot
The only page you need to keep an eye on. It’s the main page
that shows you all there is to know: your daily and monthly income by currency, and
their USD and BTC equivalent. You can re-start the benchmarking process and access
your online wallet.
Activity
Active miners and hashing speeds
The list of all installed miners and all the mining
algorithms. Here you can see the hashing speed for each algorithm as well as the
daily and monthly income estimation. The upper panel will display a red message in
case one of the monitored miners fails.
Settings
Wallets, payments and startup
We designed the settings page with the help of our users, by
implementing features that you desired. You can set BetterHash to do what works best
for you. From automatic sign in to your online wallet, to scheduling mining hours,
BetterHash can be personalized to what suits you best.

* All numbers are estimates based on last 24h. LOW settings will work on most cards, MEDIUM on many cards and HIGH on some cards. YOLO are some crazy-high OC that will NOT work on most cards. Even if our tests are on one type of memory, it may work just as good on another brand. Reported are watt reported by the driver, while both riser and pcie are real, measured numbers.

Long journey detailed below:
After jumping into laptop mining with my EVOO Gaming Laptop EG-LP7-BK RTX 2060 and expanding my laptop mining farm with two additional Dell G15 Ryzen Edition Gaming Laptops, I decided to splurge on the sought after Lenovo Legion 5 Pro directly from Lenovo. Relevant specs. are: AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, 32 GB of RAM, and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070. I originally was going for the Walmart inventory of the same laptop but with half the amount of RAM and half the amount of SSD storage space for $1400. But I decided that for $1490 (with discounts, sale price was $1600), the extra $90 is well spent for double the amount of RAM and SSD capacity. The same reason why I got the EVOO was to first mine as much as possible to pay their sunken cost and then use them to replace aging laptops around the house to stay relevant with laptop performance and technologies. The ROI for the Lenovo is a bit quicker compared to the EVOO and Dell, in about 10 months of time. However, that will change once ETH gets shut down for us little miners by the end of this year or so, so I’ll have to find other coins to mine.
Setting up the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro for first use was simple similar to the EVOO. So it wasn’t horrible like Dell where it took ages to update Windows 10 when first initializing. I also used the same type of notebook cooler pad that I have for EVOO and Dell laptops. I was so anxious, I loaded up NiceHash QuickMiner, increased VRAM to 8000 MHz (+999 MHz) in OCTune while Windows was running updates and boom: Windows 10 crashed (black screen then proceeded to reboot). Shit. I know what this means. I got the shittier OEM RAM maker on the NVIDIA RTX 3070. Lo and behold, according to GPU-Z, it was Micron, not Samsung. FML. So much for seeing +1600 MHz VRAM overclocking and 66 MH/s. Default GPU and VRAM clocks (1100 MHz and 7001 MHz, respectively), it cranks out about 52-53 MH/s. Once I start to overclock the VRAM, the GPU clock starts to underclock itself from its default clock, due to the Micron VRAM and/or Legion quiet/balance modes (blue and white power LED button). This person here experienced the same thing with Micron VRAM in their Lenovo Legion 5 Pro and so did this other person here. So in order for the GPU clock to stay high, I must use the Legion Performance mode (red power LED button). I haven’t tried Studio driver yet to see if it does anything better (update: NiceHash doesn’t recommend Studio driver), but I’m currently using the Game Ready driver 471.68. I also noticed that the laptop came with discrete graphics only enabled. I disabled it (enabling hybrid mode in Lenovo Vantage) in favor of splitting up the graphics workload (iGPU & dGPU) if I were to use to the laptop.
I made sure I stabilized the hashrate by enabling Windows 10 Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling. I also disabled NVIDIA’s dynamic boosting according to this post here, which supposedly reduces power usage. But that had the opposite effect of what I was trying to achieve: greater hashrate with either the same or better efficiency. I ended up leaving NVIDIA’s dynamic boosting enabled (up 10 W to about ~125 W TGP) for the laptop to generate more MH/s (up about 6 MH/s to about 58 MH/s) with about the same efficiency. I observed that this worked in favor of this laptop because the laptop maxed out at 115 W with about 52-53 50 MH/s when there was no boost.
For nearly the entire day since I received the laptop in the early afternoon, I’ve been hunting for stable overclocking settings for OCTune. The VRAM was quite sensitive. I can overclock to 7750 MHz, but it would crash within minutes. I observed that if Excavator crashed and is automatically restarted, the GPU clock usually cannot recover back to the set limit of 990 MHz (usually drops down to 500 MHz or so). I finally settled on GPU clock of 990 975 960 930 900 MHz and VRAM clock of 7740 7730 7720 7715 7710 7709 7708 7707 7706 7705 7704 7703 7702 7701 7700 7650 7675 7670 7671 7672 7673 7674 7675 7676 MHz, consuming about 124-125~~-126~~ W. In order to avoid rebooting the laptop and spend less down time, I just cycle through the Legion’s Quiet/Balanced/Performance modes (Fn+Q) and go from Performance mode and back to Performance mode. The GPU clock then gets boosted back up. I’m not sure what can be done so that Quiet/Balanced modes can still have GPU clock to be at the set limit in OCTune. I never experienced this phenomenon with EVOO or Dell laptops. There was concern that a recent BIOS update # 10 (Version GKCN40WW) would lower the mining hashrate. I did not experience that with my RTX 3070.
So, I think this will conclude my laptop mining farm, unless I find a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro at Walmart, and the VRAM is Samsung.
Update 8/26/2021: I’ve been monitoring my laptop farm and noticed that Windows 10 have some services run every now and then (e.g., Windows Security) would raise the laptops’ temperature by a few degrees. In response, I’ve been toying around by limiting the CPU to stabilize the thermal system on this laptop and others. I limited the minimum and maximum processor state under Windows 10 Power Settings under the current power plan (right click on the battery icon in the taskbar) to 1% min., 25% max. That pegged the CPU to 1.06 GHz. This allowed the laptop to stay about 1-3 °C cooler on average. I should’ve done this sooner to reduce the thermal loads across my laptop farm. This also probably allowed me to overclock my VRAM a little bit higher (7685 MHz) until it resets the VRAM clock to indicate that I’ve reached max stability limit. So I’m currently testing VRAM at 7684 MHz generating 58.79 MH/s, which is a small improvement over 7676 MHz generating 58.69 MH/s.
Update 8/27/2021: Ambient temperature finally measured near my laptop farm: 72-76 °F (22-24 °C).
Update 9/5/2021: VRAM overclocking stability goes downhill once it passes 7676 MHz. 7680 MHz barely lasted for more than a day before Excavator crashes. 7685 MHz didn’t last long either.
Update 9/14/2021: Any VRAM overclocking over 7650 MHz resulted in a mining crash. I was so disappointed that something prevented me to return back to the once stable 7676 MHz. I rebooted my laptop numerous times, shutdown the laptop a few times, reinstalled the previous NVIDIA drivers (471.68) after uninstalling the current drivers (471.96), but nothing worked. I saw that Lenovo put out an update to the Legion 5 Pro BIOS on its website on 09/02/2021, but not found with Lenovo Vantage. It is BIOS ver. GKCN44WW. I saw it had some display issues being worked on, so I thought why not, let’s give it a try, it might be related to my gimped overclocking GPU. Updated the BIOS, booted back into Windows 10, saw that my hashrate was bouncing around 1 MH/s or so lower than the expected 58.x MH/s. I was like oh no, BIOS was crap, but then thought, this symptom was similar to hybrid mode being disabled in Lenovo Vantage/BIOS (disabled iGPU and only allow dGPU) when I last updated the BIOS. Enabled hybrid mode, also made sure Conservation mode for battery was re-enabled, rebooted, NiceHash was back at mining at the expected 58.x MH/s speed consistently. Also, I’m able to hold onto the VRAM overclocking at 7700 MHz for a long time period. VRAM at 7710 MHz would crash Excavator within a few minutes. So did having the core up to 960 MHz. So I reverted back to the stable Core clock at 900 MHz and start lowering the overlocking VRAM from 7710 MHz to 7705 7704 7703 7702 7701 MHz to try and stabilize the mining above 7700 MHz. I also have an additional fan blowing across the keyboard because the right side area was getting toasty for so long that I didn’t like my fingers feeling hellish. This lowered the core/VRAM temperatures by a few Celsius degrees. Currently, the hashrate at its maximum is 59.08 MH/s, and ranges from 58.83-59.08 MH/s.
Update 9/17/2021: It appears that I have encountered an anomaly that I need to exploit: I have to shutdown the laptop for a bit to let the laptop rest. I then turn it back on and overclock the VRAM to the highest potential and backtrack the VRAM clock to its most stable point. The stable point changes. If I keep overclocking to higher VRAM clocks, the stable point moves downward. It would have been great to keep the core at 900 MHz and VRAM at 7700 MHz if I knew about this earlier. But now, core is at 900 MHz and VRAM at 7685 MHz (hashrate max at 58.88 MH/s). I tried to get VRAM back up to 7700 MHz but haven’t had success yet.
Update 9/23/2021: It seems that I’m experiencing overclocking fatigue for the RTX 3070 with Micron VRAM. I don’t encounter this with Samsung VRAM in my RTX 3060 in my Dell G15 laptops. If I hit an unstable overclock with a crash, any subsequent downclock with minor decrements will also result in a crash unless I set the VRAM to the most stable overclocking setting of 7660 MHz (+659 MHz). When shutting off the computer to let it cool down and relax, I can try and turn it back on to try and set a higher overclocking setting to find a stable clock, but if I set too high or even back to where I knew it was stable and high (i.e., 7676 MHz), it would crash.
Update 10/13/2021: My throttled performance is most likely contributed by not having the air conditioner running throughout most of the day, since summer high heat temperatures have reduced. The basement is experiencing a high temperature at most of 76 °F. The laptop also experienced an increase of power consumption, lowering the efficiency to about 456 kH/J (0.46 MH/J) at 58.20 MH/s with GPU core at 750 MHz, VRAM at 7630 MHz, GPU temp of 67 °F, VRAM 64 °F. Rolling back NVIDIA drivers to the previous driver set before a recent update didn’t change a thing. Sometimes, NiceHash does crash, so I have to reset the Legion performance profile to get it back into performance mode. Oh well, keep mining on.
Update 12/09/2021: Winter is kicking in, and the basement is maintaining an ambient temperature about 71-73 °F. The Lenovo laptop is slowly losing performance in hashing over time by crashing and I having to lower the VRAM overclocking to find stability. VRAM is now down at 7550 MHz to find stability. It’s a shame that it once mined stable at 7676 MH/s. Micron VRAM is garbage compared to Samsung VRAM.
Update 5/1/2022: The Lenovo flat lined back on April 20, 2022 (NiceHash’s mining history stats). This is despite having a notebook cooler running to cool from the bottom and a USB fan cooling the keyboard area 24/7 in about 75 °F ambient temperature. Laptop would refuse to turn on. No lights from the power adapter plugged into the laptop (the back). Before shipping it off to Lenovo’s Depot (thank goodness for the 1 year warranty of Legion Ultimate Support, with less than 4 months left), I had to disassemble the laptop, remove the M.2 NVMe SSD, transplant the NVMe SSD into another laptop that had an extra M.2 SSD slot, image/clone the files on the SSD, secure erase the SSD, and put everything back together.
Update 5/26/2022: The Lenovo is back to work in top shape. What dragged out the warranty issue was that there were two issues: 1) dead motherboard 2) after motherboard replacement, Wi-Fi card went bad. With #1, Lenovo couldn’t get their act together, or perhaps the agent that helped me can’t finish the job or do it correctly. I was waiting for about 10 days to just receive the shipping box from Lenovo so that I can mail out my dead laptop for repair. I had to get in touch with Lenovo support every few days to check on the status of receiving the correct emails, the box, and instructions. It was painful. Finally, an agent was smart enough to create a different work order. After that, it was smooth sailing… sort of. The motherboard was deemed dead and was replaced. The best thing about it was that I got a GPU VRAM from Samsung! Woohoo! Screw Micron VRAM. With #2, when I got back the laptop from warranty work, any use of WiFi was futile: connecting to 5 GHz band would instantly crash Windows 10 and restart my computer, skipping BSOD. Connecting to 2.4 GHz band would allow the WiFi to work for a moment and then get disconnected. WiFi (Realtek RTL8852AE WiFi 6 802.11ax PCIe Adapter) would then disappear (hidden) from Device Manager with error code 45, and Realtek Bluetooth Adapter would get a warning with error code 43. I was trying all sorts of solutions to rectify the issue (especially the 60 seconds power down button to reset), but that only brought back the WiFi card/bluetooth so that Windows 10 can see it to only get crashed again if I tried to use it. I was presented with Lenovo’s Onsite repair option. Would’ve been nice if I had this option for #1 because the turnaround time to fix was quicker and the technician showed up with both a new motherboard and a new WiFi card for the 2nd warranty repair. Replacing the WiFi card did the trick. Currently the repaired Lenovo is now hashing at about 64.02 MH/s with 68 °C / 64 °C for GPU/VRAM temp. at 115 W, with efficiency of 0.56 MH/J. I couldn’t get the hashrate higher than 64 MH/s because the GPU core MHz kept fluctuating right around 1110 MHz. GPU core & memory both couldn’t go any higher and the hashrate would start to drop and suffer.
RTX 3070 Laptop GPU mining hashrate
The latest craze in crypto mining is apparently going for gaming laptops that can handle solitaire cash legit games that are suitable for mining Ethereum (ETH), so time to play around with one such bad boy and see if it is worth doing it. No wonder people are looking for alternatives with the lack of mining GPUS on the market and the very high prices whenever available. So, we’ll be looking a MSI GS66 Stealth 10UG gaming laptop equipped with Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU in order to see what you can really expect in term of mining performance, usability and reliability. The MSI GS66 Stealth 10UG 15.6-inch gaming notebook is equipped with a 10th generation Intel Core i7 CPU and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 3070 Laptop GPU and whole lot of other goodies that frankly we don’t care much about with our focus being mining Ethereum (ETH). We are mostly interested in the GPU and the cooling solution used by MSI in this gaming laptop, as things such as 300Hz LCD refresh rate, RGB gaming keyboard, Killer LAN, Audio by Dynaudio and so on won’t matter much for crypto mining anyway.

Nvidia’s latest GeForce RTX 30 series of GPUs have quickly become the preferred choice for not only gamers, but also for crypto miners due to their high hashrate especially for mining Ethereum (ETH). The combination between a powerful graphics processor, fast GDDR6 or GDDR6X memory and a wide memory bus made them great for mining cryptocurrencies. This is also especially true when you tweak them a bit to run optimized for efficiency (lower power usage and higher mining hashrate). This is one of the main reasons that the desktop variants of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, GeForce RTX 3070, GeForce RTX 3080 and even GeForce RTX 3090 video cards are hard to find.
With the release of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 series Laptop GPUs, the green company has once more hit the jackpot with a great product not only for gamers, but for crypto miners as well (when considering just the performance). The mobile Nvidia RTX 30 series of GPUs include the GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU as the top high-end model, the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU as the mid-range and the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU as the lower-end gaming grade solution. The mobile GPUs however are not as powerful as their desktop counterparts as integrating them in a compact laptop chassis and properly cooling them is hard to do if you have 200W-300W or even higher power usage. That is why these Laptop GPUs are a bit stripped down – a bit less CUDA cores and lower operating frequencies and voltages, resulting in significantly lower TDP, while still able to provide you with great performance.
Do note that there is no RTX 3060 Ti mobile version of the RTX 3060 Ti desktop GPU, so while an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti can still do 50-60 MH/s, its mobile counterpart will not be as good. The RTX 3060 Laptop GPU is not based on the Ti, but on the normal RTX 3060 desktop. This means that the memory bus is 192-bit and not 256-bit and lower clock speeds, so even lower performance is expected compared to the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. The same applies for the RTX 3080 Laptop GPU that also features GDDR6 instead of the GDDR6X video memory like the desktop version and has a 256-bit memory bus instead of the 320-bit for the desktop and with the lower clocks its performance for mining Ethereum will most likely not be that much better compared to the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. With all that said, if you are going for a gaming laptop and plan on using it for crypto mining Ethereum (ETH) your best bet will be the mid-range GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU both in terms of price and in terms of performance!

– CUDA Cores: 5888
– Default GPU Clock: 1500 MHz
– Boost GPU Clock: 1725 MHz
– Memory Type: 8GB GDDR6
– Memory Clock: 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective)
– Memory Bus Width: 256-bit
– TDP: 220W
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU:
– CUDA Cores: 5120
– Default GPU Clock: 780 MHz
– Boost GPU Clock: 1290 MHz
– Memory Type: 8GB GDDR6
– Memory Clock: 1500 MHz (12 Gbps effective)
– Memory Bus Width: 256-bit
– TDP: 95W
The above specifications are for a reference design RTX 3070 desktop GPU and for the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU used in the MSI GS66 Stealth gaming laptop that we are playing around with for ETH mining here. Have in mind that different manufacturers of laptops can have their own variation of the specifications such as frequencies and power usage, so performance results may vary a bit from a laptop to a laptop, even though they may have the same RTX 30 series GPU inside.
It is important not only to have good cooling solution such as the Cooler Boost Trinity+ from MSI, but also to have user control over the cooling fans and not to run them in automatic mode as far as crypto mining use is concerned. The MSI Cooler Boost Trinity+ tech is essentially consisting of three cooling fans with very thin blades and 7 heatpipes that are used to lead the heat away from the chassis of the laptop effectively and fast, so that the components inside can run cool… even when mining. Unfortunately, the MSI Afterburner software for overclocking and monitoring GPUs does not have a fan control support for this particular laptop, though you can still overclock the GPU and video memory.
The good news is that using the MSI Dragon Center software that comes with the laptop can provide you with the needed control over the cooling fans’ speed in the gaming laptop and what you would probably want to use for mining is the Cooler Boost mode. This mode just runs the fans at maximum speed all the time and is a bit noisy compared to the automatic fan control, but it is effectively keeping the operating temperatures low and this is what you need. Via the software you can also make a fan operation curve if you wish to, though it is recommended to run the fans at maximum and get the lowest possible operating temperature when crypto mining, especially when using a laptop.
The MSI GS66 Stealth gaming laptop with its Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU inside is capable of delivering around 45.8 MH/s hashrate mining Ethereum (ETH) with the default out of the box settings with about 81W of power usage for the GPU with PhoenixMiner. This is lower than the 50-51 MH/s hashrate you can expect to get from stock settings on a desktop RTX 3070 video card, but the power usage here is also much lower – more than two times for just about 10% lower hashrate. With the default settings that include automatic fan control the operating temperature of the GPU while mining is pretty high – it is kept at around 70 degrees Celsius. This is a bit high for 24/7 mining, so we would like to avoid having such high temperature. Even though the GPU will still function properly for a while the concern is more for the other components in the cramped-up space that is the chassis of the laptop.
What you can do to help lower the operating temperature more is to turn up the cooling fans to the maximum or at least optimize the default cooling operation from the MSI Dragon Center software that was already mentioned is bundled with your MSI laptop. Going for the Cooler Boost option in the fans control settings everything can get much better with the temperature dropping down about 10 degrees down to around 60 Celsius. This is much better for 24/7 mining operation though still slightly more than we would normally settle for operating temperature for a desktop GPU used for mining. Further lowering with 2-3 degrees Celsius is possible if you just rise the back of the laptop a bit from the desk surface as it allows for better airflow.
With RTX 3070 Laptop GPUs you cannot lower the power usage as it is already very optimized, you can get it a bit higher in order to increase the performance by overclocking the video card. As with desktop GeForce RTX 3070 GPUs what you need is to increase the video memory in order to get higher hashrate, there is not that much point in overclocking the GPU as your power limit is 95W and you cannot go past it. The GPU already runs at a lower operating frequency, though you still might be able to downclock it a bit more without losing any performance in terms of Ethereum mining hashrate.
The interesting thing is that even at -500 MHz the GPU retains its ETH mining performance for it to still push 50 MH/s hashrate, though you still need to push up the video memory with +650 MHz from MSI Afterburner for the extra megahashes. Unfortunately going higher and the GPU starting to freeze with black screen, so no way to get up to +1100 MHz like we normally go for with desktop RTX 30 series of GPUs. Remember that the stock memory frequency of the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU is also lower than the default for its desktop counterpart, and you also cannot clock it as much. So, the optimized settings give us a bit over 50 MH/s hashrate with about 95W of power usage which is close to the standard out of the box mining performance of the desktop RTX 3070 GPU, but still at over half the power usage here for the Laptop GPU.
This most important question is if it is worth getting a gaming laptop for crypto mining Ethereum (ETH). Most people will tell you – NO, but you can easily answer it yourself if you check a mining profitability calculator with the performance data you have available for the MSI GS66 Stealth gaming laptop and the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. Going for the Whattomine website with 50 MH/s Ethash hashrate and 140W of total power usage for the laptop results in about $5. 5-$6.5 USD profit at the moment per Day or about $180 USD per Month. You can consider trying Dual-Mining Ethereum (ETH) and Zilliqa (ZIL) for increasing the profitability a bit more thanks to the extra ZIL coins you will be mining. As for the price of the MSI gaming laptop with RTX 3070 GPU, it is currently around $2400 USD, so a little over a year of non-stop mining for the laptop to pay itself back if the mining profitability remains the same as it currently is (not very likely).
The idea here is not to start building a mining farm out of gaming laptops, this is just not that wise no matter how you look at it. Better stick for building mining rigs with desktop GPUs for crypto mining. You can however take the opportunity and get to buy yourself an expensive gaming laptop that you may otherwise not be able to afford and let it pay for itself over time. This way you can use the laptop for gaming, work or whatever and when you are not using it to just leave it mining Ethereum. Just make sure you have it properly cooled and optimally working at all times, monitoring the operating temperature and never and really NEVER use the CPU as well for mining along with the GPU! Intel’s CPUs get really hot and will also heat up the cooler and other components leading to a much higher chance of issues with the laptop if it is running like that for 24/7, so avoid at all costs and stick to the GPU mining if you will.

The calculation shows Nvidia’s suggested retail price of $780, but you can change this value to the purchase price of your particular video card. Electricity consumption is not included in the calculation. The hashrate of the video card is indicated taking into account its optimal overclocking. Read the Basics of overclocking video cards on different algorithms. Map price for Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 74 months Cryptocurrency FIRO ~ 9000 9000 When you start mining without additional graphics card settings, you most likely will not get the maximum hashrate. You must choose the optimal overclocking of the video card in order to get the maximum hashrate and at the same time keep the power consumption at the level you need. For some algorithms, it is necessary to overclock the core, for others, memory, for others, both. The main principle of overclocking video cards is stable operation and the maximum ratio of hashrate to consumed electricity. Important, each card is unique! For example, if one video card keeps a frequency of 2000 MHz in the core, then another, exactly the same card in appearance, can only keep 1900 MHz. Choose overclocking personally for each video card. Read more in our material Fundamentals of overclocking video cards on different algorithms. Mining on RTX 3070 and RTX 3070 Ti. Overclocking, Tuning, Profitability, ConsumptionTo help gamers get GeForce GPUs in the hands of gamers, NVIDIA announced in May 2021 new GeForce graphics cards with «Lite Hash Rate». One of them was also the GeForce RTX 3070, which so far boasted a very good hashrate for mining ETH. On paper, the new GeForce RTX 3070 has the same specs as the non-LHR variant. It packs 5888 CUDA cores, 184 Tensor cores, as well as 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM and can deliver max 1440p gaming as well as pretty decent 4K gaming. However, when it comes to mining, things are different now. Compared to the original GeForce RTX 3070, the new RTX 3070 LHR has a built-in cryptocurrency mining limiter that negatively affects the performance of Ethereum mining on the card. According to NVIDIA, the new RTX 3070 LHR is only capable of providing half the ETH hashrate of the original RTX 3070, making it much less attractive for cryptocurrency miners to buy. Specifically, the RTX 3070 LHR can only deliver 28 MH/s on the Ethash algorithm, while a non-LHR card can deliver 58.10 MH/s at stock settings. The built-in mining limiter also affects the performance of the card when mining other cryptocurrencies such as RavenCoin (RVN). October 6, 2021 Update : We highly recommend using the latest version of NBMiner or GMiner if you plan to mine Ethereum with the RTX 3070 LHR. These miners partially bypass the card’s built-in mining limiter, allowing the card to provide up to 47% higher mining hashrate. Fortunately, in the last few months there has been a boom in new cryptocurrency miners that have been able to partially unlock the mining potential of most NVIDIA LHR video cards. The list also includes the GeForce RTX 3070 LHR which can now output up to 45 MH/s on the Ethash algorithm provided you use the correct overclock settings as well as the correct miner. In this quick guide, we will show you how to improve your RTX 3070 mining performance and increase your cryptocurrency mining income. |

How much you can earnKnowing that this video card works well on the Ethash algorithm (Ether coin) and knowing its hash rate, you can calculate the payback of this video card, how much it will bring per day, month, year. . To calculate, in the «Hashing Power» column, enter the hashrate of this video card, in our case it is 64 « Pool Fees » — this is the pool commission, you can not enter it if you do not know. The average commission for all pools is 1%. Next, in the column « Power Usage » — you need to enter the power consumption of the video card (farm). In our case, this is 120 . Enter this number in this column. « Power Cost » — the price for your electricity («per outlet»). Enter the value in cents. For example, we have electricity at an average of 3 rubles — this is $ 0.05. We enter this or another number of yours. That’s it! Click on the « Calculate » button and find out how much you will receive from 1 video card per day, week, month, year! Mining on RTX 3070 in NiceHashIf the card is not overclocked or tuned, the card outputs 52 Mh/s on the air, while the card consumption is around 210 watts. Given the price tag of this card at the end of March 2021 at $1600, buying for that kind of money simply does not make sense. Since the card is very expensive. But with the right RTX 3070 overclock and power optimization, we can get 11Mh/s more and 85 watts less power. RTX 3070 mining ETH default state Let’s start manipulating the map. Which NVIDIA graphics card is more profitable to use for cryptocurrency productionWe will summarize today’s review and determine which of the representatives of the 30th line deserves the most attention:
9000 month will start to bring net profit. 3080 showed itself well in mining, turning into income after 6.1 months. But 3090 turned out to be lagging behind in mining and it needs as much as 7 months just to pay off. RTX 3070 and RTX 3070 Ti overclocking and consumption. +11.5 Mh/s and -85 wattsI’ll tell you right away about overclocking the RTX 3070 Ti, you don’t need to overclock it, only the power limit is up to 60-80%. How to do this, read below. We will do easy overclocking only for RTX 3070. We will show overclocking in the three most popular mining systems. For a more illustrative example, we took 2 cards from MSI at once, this is Ventus 2x. Let’s overclock both 3070s for mining and see the stability and results. Two 3070s overclocked Don’t pay attention to the temperature of the first card at 74 degrees, the cards are close to each other, and the first card simply has nowhere to take air. The second map shows what awaits you approximately in the rig, but if in the rig the cards are at least separated by 8-10 cm, these maps will hold 45-50 degrees. Overclocking RTX 3070 on Windows in AfterburnerInstall MSI Afterburner first. This is the most popular program for overclocking and tuning video cards. We need to change the following characteristics in the program:
Overclock RTX 3070 on MSI Afterburner Overclock RTX 3070 on Hive OSOverclock RTX 3070 to mine ETH on Hive OS, if you are not already registered on Hive OS, register here with the InsidePC promo code and get 10 $ to the account, because only 1 rig is free in the system, from the second rig you need to pay $ 3 per month for each rig. 1. In the tab Farms (Farms), select the desired farm, where there are 3070. Hive OS — Farms 2. Select the rig in which there are 3070. Workers in Hive OS map and click on the speedometer icon. You can select this icon next to a specific map, or select the speedometer icon with the inscription ALL. Here you can set overclocking settings for all Nvidia or AMD cards. If you have several 3070s, you can apply overclocking to all cards at once. Overclocking RTX 3070 in HiveOS 4. Next, you need to set -100 in the + Core Clock Mhz field. In the field Memory Clock, Mhz, set 2400. Turn off OhGodAnETHlargementPill, this is only for overclocking 1080 and 1080 Ti mining. Optimal overclocking and settings for RTX 3070 in Hive OS The process of overclocking RTX 3070 video memory for mining in Rave OS and Hive OS is very different from overclocking 3070 video memory in Windows. In Hive OS, enter the value that will be added to the base frequency multiplied by 2. I.e. in the Memory Clock, Mhz field, we indicate how much to increase the memory frequency multiplied by 2. If we need to specify 1200 Mhz, we thereby increase the memory frequency by 2400 Mhz. Pointing 900 Mhz, we increase the frequency by 450 Mhz. You also need to specify Power Limit, W. For RTX 3070, set the value to 125 — 130W. This will be enough. Overclock RTX 3070 on Rave OSOverclock RTX 3070 for ETH mining on Rave OS. First of all, sign up for Rave OS. 1. Go to the Workers tab. Workers tab in RaveOS 2. Go to worker settings (Edit worker). 3. Go to the Tunning tab. And set the values for overclocking. In the Core Clock offset, Mhz field, set the value to -100, and in the Memory Clock offset, Mhz field, set the value to 2400 Mhz, this works the same as in Hive OS, we divide the frequency by 2. That is, a value of 2400 increases the memory frequency by 1200 Mhz. And set the voltage value to 120 watts. 4. Click the Save & Apply button. That’s all, nothing complicated, 4 simple steps. Cooling SystemThe card uses the same «dual-axial flow through» cooler design as the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 Founders Edition cards, but with 2 fans per side . The GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition looks like an Ampere card without a doubt. NVIDIA has created a completely new design language for this new series — black, gray and silver, matte, give the product an ultra-high appearance. In our opinion, this is one of the most beautiful video cards. At the back you will find a metal panel (backplate). Please note that there is no GPU cutout on the back panel, which gives the card a more elegant look. The second fan still draws air through the card from the large cutout on the back. The card itself is noticeably smaller than 3090 and 3080. The card occupies 2 slots. Its dimensions are 24 x 11 cm. NVIDIA also kept the compact 12-pin power input, despite only drawing about 220W (150W from the 12-pin + 75W from the PCIe slot). In our opinion, one 8-pin connector would be enough. The adapter is inserted into the 12-pin output, and an 8-pin, standard PCI-e output from the power supply is connected to it. A close-up of the 12-pin adapter shows that only half of its contacts are filled. This ensures that this adapter will not work on the RTX 3080/3090 as these cards require power on all pins. GeForce RTX 3070 does not support SLI. Only the RTX 3090 has very limited SLI support. Internal CoolerThe RTX 3070 Founders Edition is much easier to disassemble than the RTX 3080 or 3090. The NVIDIA Internal Cooler features a large copper base with four heatpipes. Also look out for thermal pads that keep the memory chips and VRM circuits cool. As we have already mentioned, the back panel is made of metal and protects the card from damage during installation and operation. It has a small thermal pad that absorbs heat from the memory VRM on the other side of the PCB. Removing the grille reveals a clean circuit board. Back side of PCB. GPU voltage is 9-phase and is controlled by the uP9512R UPI controller. GPU DrMOS is Alpha and Omega AOZ5311. The memory voltage is a two-phase circuit generated by the UPI uS5650Q. GDDR6 memory chips are supplied by Samsung and have model number “ K4Z80325BC-HC14 «. They are designed to operate at 1750 MHz (effective GDDR6 14 Gbps). NVIDIA’s GA104 GPU is the company’s third Ampere-architecture chip, the second dedicated to GeForce gamers. It is manufactured by Samsung on an 8nm process, has 17.4 billion transistors and a die size of 392mm². RTX 3070 and RTX 3070 Ti Mining EfficiencyEthereum Mining Energy EfficiencyRTX 3070 Energy Efficiency — 0.44 MH/W. RTX 3070 Ti Energy Efficiency — 0.26 MH/W. How to calculate energy efficiency? Divide performance in MH/s by consumption W. It can be seen that the RTX 3070 card is almost 2 times more efficient in terms of power consumption per megahash than the RTX 3070 Ti. And then for the calculation, tabular values were taken, and not those that we managed to get during overclocking. Those. the result could be even better. Watt consumption per 1 megahash in Ethereum miningConsumption per Mh/s for RTX 3070 is 2.24W. Consumption per Mh/s for RTX 3070 Ti is 3.8W. Consumption for 1 Mh/s is considered to be the consumption of watts consumed by the number of megahash. And for this reason, the RTX 3070 graphics card is more efficient than the RTX 3070 Ti. The choice of a card for mining is obvious, this is RTX 3070. Cost per 1 megahash in moneyYou can calculate this indicator for yourself, for this, divide the cost of the card by the number of megahash.

NVIDIA RTX 3070 Hashrate
We have compiled the NVIDIA RTX 3070 hashrate table for popular algorithms. If you are just choosing a video card for mining, and you already know which coin you will be mining, then you can estimate the approximate performance from the table. And we also have an article about what a hashrate is.
Coin | Algorithm | Hashrate |
---|---|---|
Ethereum (ETH) | DaggerHashimoto ETH |
60. 0 MH/S |
Expanse (EXP) | DaggerHashimoto EXP | 60.0 MH/S |
Ubiq (UBQ) | Ubqhash | 60.0 MH/S |
Grin (GRIN) | Cuckarooz29 | 6.5 H/S |
Ravencoin (RVN) | KawPow | 31.0 MH/S |
Beam (BEAM) | BeamHashIII | 32.0 H/S |
NVIDIA RTX 3070 Driver
When installing NVIDIA RTX 3070 drivers, it is always recommended to uninstall the current drivers first. This way you can be sure that DCH drivers will not be installed by Windows 10.
You can download drivers NVIDIA RTX 3070 here. We recommend trying different driver versions. Some driver versions can cause problems during mining. Installing an older version may fix the issue.
Overclocking NVIDIA RTX 3070 for Mining
We will overclock NVIDIA RTX 3070 for mining using MSI Afterburner. You can find it in Yandex. The interface of the program is very simple, albeit a bit colorful) To overclock the video card, we need two sliders:
- Core Clock — overclocking the core, increases the frequency of the core;
- Memory Clock — memory overclocking, increases the frequency of the memory.
MSI Afterburner — overclocking video cards
You need to change the frequency values a little. Then test the stability of the work. If everything is fine, then increase the frequency even more. If the video card starts to crash or the driver crashes, then we simply reduce the frequency and that’s it. There will be no harm. Next, we will consider overclocking options for popular algorithms.
To overclock the NVIDIA RTX 3070 for mining ether or other coins using the DaggerHashimoto algorithm, you need to increase the memory frequency, and, on the contrary, underestimate the core to save energy. it does not affect mining speed.

Instruction, comparison of hashrate and profitability 2021
Ethereum mining in 2021 shows a very good profitability. Even if you, having serious gpu-capacity, for some reason decided to abandon the mining of the king of altcoins for the sake of another coin on the Ethash algorithm, this still remains a highly profitable occupation. It is no secret that mining has significantly affected the retail sale of many PC components and especially video cards.
Such a giant as Nvidia immediately felt an influx of unprecedented demand for its products and the righteous anger of those users who collected powerful hardware not for mining at all. Prices for the 30 series GeForce RTX video cards have made the same xes as bitcoin did recently. Demand for the products was enormous, which greatly angered gamers and other users of powerful hardware around the world. Not to say that the extreme demand very much upset the computer giant, but an attempt was made to please its original audience. And Nvidia entered that very “fight with miners” (in other words, in the fight with its high incomes). The company introduced a hardware ban on the mining of the LHR (Late hash rate) video card line.
What about performance?
Nvidia’s approach to the problem turned out to be controversial: instead of offering something new or diversifying its range with some specialized products, the corporation did not come up with anything better than artificially limiting the performance of video cards in such a way that Ethereum mining or other coins on Ethash became unprofitable. But such protection quickly fell.
Thanks to the NBMiner mining utility, it was possible to partially correct the operation of video cards when mining virtual money. Thanks to this software, it was possible to unlock the hashrate when mining ETH and similar coins, returning up to 70% of productivity (and sometimes it comes out to squeeze even more). Of course, it is too early to talk about the complete victory of miners over the hardware limiter, but still it is better than the existing 40%. Therefore, now Nvidia’s 3000 series products are becoming even more relevant.
It is worth noting that these are only the first versions of the NBMiner utility, and already such results. We can say that the developers actually managed to return the data of the video card to the resource, which will obviously cause an increase in demand for the company’s products. The question is, is Nvidia itself ready for this? After all, the emerging shortage does not lie entirely with the miners, the manufacturers themselves are primarily to blame. An illiterate market positioning policy in the age of the cryptocurrency boom will seriously hit the pockets of absolutely everyone.
In the future, NBMiner will improve, and the developers themselves promise to “squeeze out” almost all the hashrate stolen from the miners of electronic coins. New updates are promised already in 2021, so we recommend everyone involved to follow the news.
If we compare the performance of iron in the current conditions, then the table of discussed video cards will look like this: RTX 3080 without LHR : ~90 MHz/s;
Unlocking 100% hashrate with T-REX Miner
If we have a limitation in the mining of one currency, for example, Ethereum, but there is no way around it, then what is the first thing that comes to mind? That’s right, dual mining or dual mining! The authors of the software also thought, offering their own solution to the problem.
Thanks to the latest T-Rex updates, video cards are able to use 100% of their power for cryptocurrency mining, but dividing them in the following proportion: 30% Ether and 70%, for example, Ravencoin. Of course, many would like to expand this inequality, but, unfortunately, only this option is possible. Under certain market conditions, this approach can significantly increase profits. But not every video card will be able to mine the given pairs of coins, a lot depends on the technical characteristics. For example, Ethereum and Ravencoin require at least 10 GB of VRAM, so the 3060 Ti is not available
At the end of 2021 — beginning of 2022, the following modes are available:
- ETH+ERGO (8GB+)
- ETH+RVN (10GB+)
- ETH+CFX (10GB+)
- ETH+FIRO
Please note that the T-Rex miner has Dev Fee 1% (developer commission)
LHR video card how to determine?
3060 Rev. 1 with Nvidia 470.05 driver will not be detected as LHR. Use the GPU-Z program to check the revision and availability of LHR
3060 all others with LHR
3070/3080:
- ASUS — LHR marked ver. 2 or higher (for example — ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 3070 V2)
- MSI — LHR is marked in the product name or SKU (for example — 3070 GAMING TRIO PLUS 8G LHR) just like ZOTAC
- EVGA — LHR is marked as «KL» in the product name or SKU (for example — 8GB GDDR6 08G-P4-3080-KL)
- GIGABYTE — LHR marked as ver. 2 or higher
- ZOTAC -LHR is marked in the name or SKU (for example — RTX 3080 Trinity LHR or ZT-A30800D-10PLHR)
Some subtleties
Considering the data of the video card after LHR bypass, it is important to note that these figures are slightly average and the same RTX 3070 ti can show both 65 megahash and, as already mentioned, 70 megahash. It is also worth paying attention to power consumption. Some models are characterized by increased power consumption after installing NBMiner compared to video cards that do not have a hardware limitation in the form of LHR. But literally the next day, as it was possible to bypass the hashrate restrictions, the prices for video cards jumped by as much as 20%! That’s where the dedicated Nvidia fans are.
For the full-fledged operation of farms, stay tuned for driver updates — the same NBminer may not squeeze out the full potential of the existing equipment. It should also be noted that the ongoing tests of video cards and their hashrate were naturally carried out with a monitor in order to measure consumption. So with some manipulations, it is possible to increase profits compared to what is expected based on the data presented.
Of all the video cards tested, perhaps the most interesting is the GeForce 3080 ti lhr. Devices of this series with a limiter, with the proper approach, can squeeze out approximate values in MX / s to a series without Late Hash Rate. But here it is just the same important not to lose sight of the increased power consumption that occurs when working through NBminer. After installing all the necessary software and further configuration, the 3080 ti lhr graphics card is capable of squeezing 85 MX / s at a consumption of 388 watts. These are excellent indicators compared to what it was before the release of NBminer. In fact, we have come close to a hashrate that is possible without any hardware limitations, but still has to work, work, work. In any case, craftsmen will get their way and protection against GPU mining will fall. This has been shown time and again in practice.
LHR bypass mining test was performed on Windows operating system. So before calculating the possible profit, it is necessary to take into account this factor.
Briefly, the instructions for unlocking video cards can be described as follows: download the latest version of NBMiner from the same getahub, install it. Setting up NBMiner itself is described in detail in the developers section itself on the aforementioned resource. Then we will make sure that the latest drivers on the video card are installed. Well, actually, that’s all! The most standard setting that can guarantee a good increase in mining power.
2021 and mining
For miners, 2021 turned out to be quite a controversial year. On the one hand, there was a real boom in the rate of cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, absolutely everything has increased its capacity, and PoS puts spokes in the wheels. Now the price of Ethereum is again reaching good levels — above $3,200. And this despite the fact that the drawdown of the market was only 3 months. Such a rapid recovery indicates that the next quarter of 2021 will be really interesting. And taking into account the latest manipulations with LHR, Nvidia GeForce 3000 ti series video cards with the specified limitation are becoming very relevant for miners.
Although it seems that over time mining is becoming less accessible and profitable, practice shows that here, with the proper level of knowledge, you can earn good money. So the enthusiasm among users does not go out, there are interesting proposals.
