How profitable is mining, really?

a reminder of the weekend! lol

The only device I have integrated GPU is a gaming laptop with integrated intel and discrete 1050 Ti GPU. I used laptop to mine Ravencoin for a few days this winter. Cooling isn't that great so I put laptop out in the garage when temps were below 40 degrees outside. I'm going to add some pictures to help you with visualizing what I am talking about. I bought an HDMI splitter to use PC and Xbox on the same monitor HDMI port. You could do something similar and plug HDMI from GPU and from motherboard into splitter and push select button to select GPU or integrated graphics rather than having to move HDMI cable all of the time.

What other questions do you have that I may not have answered?

the fees part probably changes today, aug 5 at 8am est with eip 1559.

Yes, the fees changed, I pay $3 per payout, so if I want payouts often I won't make as much and may even lose money, but if I take payouts less often it will be less costly.

I set my gwei max on ethermine to 25 gwei, it took a couple days but it finally got that low last night and it paid my wallet. fee was about $1.55
