The laptops themselves cost just over $1000 each, so the 20 x GeForce RTX 3060 series gaming laptops would cost $20,000 or so. If you had cheap enough power it would be a great investment given how cryptocurrency prices -- and in-particular Ethereum, are mooning right now.

Our friends at TechARP have worked out what a single GeForce RTX 3060 laptop should average out, with ETH mining:

• 0.000265045 ETH per hour
• 0.00636108 ETH per day
• 0.1908324 ETH per month (30 days)
• 2.3217942 ETH per year

That means if you had 20 laptops with the GeForce RTX 3060 graphics inside you're looking at 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'd actually pay off the investment of the laptops ($20K) inside of 4 months (if ETH prices stay the same). The rate of electricity in China is about RMB 0.545, or about US$0.084, per kWh. Each laptop should use around 250W of power on average, which adds another $3679 per year.

With that into consideration, the 20 x GeForce RTX 3060 gaming laptops are making $6400+ per month and $74,000+ per year. Pretty incredible!
