Uh, so if you thought using 78 GeForce RTX 3080 graphics cards to mine cryptocurrency was crazy – now cryptocurrencies are taking laptops for GeForce RTX 30 series games and mining encryption with them. 20 x of these RTX 3060 gaming laptops are doing $ 74,000 per year…

We all know how impossible it is to buy graphics cards now, so some Chinese crypto miners are buying NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 series gaming laptops and using them to mine cryptography. Weibo blogger 神 鱼 BTCe shared images on his social networks, showing stacked GeForce RTX 30 gaming laptops.
You can see in the images above and below, all new GeForce RTX 30 gaming laptops with GeForce RTX 3060 graphics cards – from the Chinese OEM company Hasee.
The laptops themselves cost just over $ 1,000 each, so the 20 GeForce RTX 3060 Series gaming laptops would cost $ 20,000 or more. If you had enough cheap energy, it would be a great investment, considering how cryptocurrency prices – and Ethereum in particular, are growing now.
Our friends at TechARP figured out what the average of a single GeForce RTX 3060 laptop with ETH mining should be:
- 0.000265045 ETH per hour
- 0.00636108 ETH per day
- 0.1908324 ETH per month (30 days)
- 2,3217942 ETH per year
This means that if you had 20 laptops with the GeForce RTX 3060 video card inside, you would be faced with a huge:
- $ 8,908 per hour
- $ 213.80 per day
- $ 6,413.87 per month (30 days)
- $78,035 per year
At that rate, you would actually pay for the laptop investment ($ 20K) in 4 months (if ETH prices remain the same). The electricity tariff in China is about RMB 0.545, or about $ 0.084, per kWh. Each laptop should use about 250W of power on average, which adds another $ 3,679 a year.
With that in mind, the 20 GeForce RTX 3060 gaming laptops are earning more than $ 6,400 a month and $ 74,000 a year. Amazing!
