- Retric 15y agoYea, due to the way my apartment complex charges for electricity I end up paying less than .2% of my personal energy bills. (It's total energy for the split among ~500 units). Because, I also have fairly nice graphics card so I could mine bit coins for basically zero cost to me other than setup time. However assuming the return is basically the same as your energy costs ~.3kw * .08c/kwh * 24 * 365 ~= 200$/year which is worth me setting it up and having slightly more fan noise for a year. PS: I would also feel somewhat guilty wasting that much energy for so little net gain.
