GPU mining calculator: the same card earns many times more in AI EARN
Mining the highest-revenue coin makes $6 to $29 a month on RTX cards, even when the card mines around the clock. In AI EARN in the GamerHash AI app, the same cards make $58 to $189 a month at 12 task hours a day: 7.4 to 20.3 times more per hour than mining. Pick your card in the calculator below.
GPU mining calculator: pick your card and compare mining with AI EARN
Pick your graphics card and the AI task hours a day. The calculator shows what the card mines around the clock on its highest-revenue coin, what it makes in AI EARN, and how many times more an hour of AI EARN pays than an hour of mining.
On an RTX 4090, an hour of AI EARN pays 13.7 times more than an hour of mining Zano. At 12 task hours a day that is $148 a month, while mining around the clock makes $22.
The calculator runs in your browser. Without JavaScript you see the default result: RTX 4090, 12 AI task hours a day.
An estimate, not a promise. Mining: WhatToMine and CoinGecko data, around the clock, no pool fee. AI EARN: rate at 100% work; tasks come when there is demand. Rates for every card: GamerHash AI earnings calculator.
GPU mining calculator for RTX cards: AI EARN pays 7.4 to 20.3 times more than mining
The table is the calculator's result for all 11 GPUs that earn in AI EARN, at 12 AI task hours a day. Mining runs around the clock on the coin that brings the highest revenue on each card.
Even with twice the hours, mining falls far behind: an RTX 4090 mines $22 a month, while in AI EARN at 12 hours a day it makes $148.

The strongest card in the table, the RTX 5090, makes $189 a month in AI EARN at 12 task hours a day, while mining makes $29 on it. Download the GamerHash AI app.
Mining vs AI EARN: per hour of GPU work, AI EARN pays many times more
Mining revenue is set by the network: block reward, difficulty and coin price, with rewards split between every miner in the world. A faster card or better software barely moves it.
AI EARN pays a rate for every hour of AI tasks your card runs. On an RTX 4080 Super that is $0.34 per hour at 100% work, while mining Zano makes $0.022 per hour, 15.5 times less.
AI EARN earnings are credited in GUSD (1 GUSD = 1 USD), so they don't lose value when a mined coin's price drops. Once you pay for electricity, mining loses money on all 11 cards in the table: is GPU mining worth it in 2026.
An RTX 4080 makes $119 a month in AI EARN at 12 task hours a day. Check your card's rate.
Mining rig calculator: 6 × RTX 3090 mine less than one RTX 4090 in AI EARN
A mining rig is several graphics cards on one motherboard. A rig calculator does the same math as for one card, times the number of cards.
Example: 6 × RTX 3090 on Zano, the highest-revenue coin for that card, mine $93 a month around the clock. One RTX 4090 in AI EARN makes $148 a month at 12 task hours a day.
The RTX 3090, a card from the mining-rig days, makes $58 a month in AI EARN at 12 task hours a day, with no rig and no pool. Download the GamerHash AI app.
2 to 4 hours of AI EARN a day beat mining around the clock
Mining runs 24 hours a day, while AI EARN pays only when your PC runs tasks. Even so, a few hours of tasks a day make more than a full day of mining.
An RTX 4060 Ti 16GB beats 24/7 mining from 2 task hours a day, an RTX 3090 from 4. Every hour of tasks after that is money mining would never make.
A mid-range card like the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB makes $74 a month in AI EARN at 12 task hours a day. Download the GamerHash AI app.

GPU mining calculator: FAQ
You pick a card and the AI task hours a day. The calculator takes the card's revenue from mining its highest-revenue coin around the clock and the AI EARN rate per task hour on the same card. It shows both per month and how many times more an hour of AI EARN pays.
