    At BYDFi, we've seen that both the GTX 960 and the 290X can be profitable for mining, but it ultimately depends on your individual setup and preferences. The GTX 960 is known for its energy efficiency and lower power consumption, making it a popular choice for miners who want to minimize electricity costs. On the other hand, the 290X offers higher hash rates and better performance, which can result in faster mining and potentially higher profits. It's important to consider factors such as electricity costs, initial investment, and the specific cryptocurrency you plan to mine. We recommend conducting thorough research and testing to determine which GPU suits your mining needs best.
