This post is for those who want to start in the crypto mining and have an old GPU. In this case we will analyze the hashrate of the MSI GTX 950 in the different algorithms.
Has an integrated chip the GM206-250-A1. It has six SMMs that contain a total of 768 CUDA Cores, 48 TMUs and 32 ROPs. The frequency of operation of its cores is 1024 Mhz factory, 1188 Mhz Boost. The GTX 950 incorporates only 2 GB of GDDR5 RAM that works through a 128-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 105.6 GB / s. The TDP of the graph is only 90 watts, 10 watts less than its AMD counterpart (the R7 360) and 30 watts less than the previous generation GTX 960.
The MSI GTX 950 was launched in August 2015. Ethereum is not working on these cards as the dag file is over 2 gb.
