Understanding GPU Hash Rate and Mining Efficiency
In the world of cryptocurrency mining, Hash Rate is the primary measure of a graphics card's performance. It represents the number of mathematical calculations (hashes) the GPU can perform every second to solve blocks on a blockchain network. Higher hash rates generally translate to higher earning potential, but they must be balanced against energy consumption.
Key Factors in Mining Profitability
Hash Rate (MH/s): Megahashes per second. This varies significantly between algorithms (e.g., KawPow, Autolykos, or Etchash).
Power Draw (Watts): The amount of electricity your GPU pulls from the wall. This is often the biggest overhead for miners.
Efficiency (MH/W): Calculated by dividing the hash rate by the wattage. A higher ratio means you are getting more mining power for every watt of electricity consumed.
Electricity Rate: Your local power cost per kilowatt-hour (kWh). In many regions, high electricity costs can make mining unprofitable regardless of the hardware.

How to Use This Calculator
To get an accurate estimate of your earnings, follow these steps:
Input Hash Rate: Enter the MH/s your specific card achieves on your chosen algorithm.
Power Consumption: Enter the software-reported wattage or, preferably, the "at the wall" wattage.
Revenue per MH/s: This value changes daily based on network difficulty and coin price. You can find current rates on sites like WhatToMine.
Pool Fee: Most mining pools charge between 0.5% and 2.0% to facilitate the mining process.
Remember that hardware depreciation, maintenance, and thermal management (cooling) are additional "hidden" costs not captured in a simple profitability formula but are vital for long-term mining success.
