Forget about Bitcoin and Ethereum mining though, that GPU is outdated by several orders of magnitude.

If you are willing to fork over some cash, Nvidia GTX 1070 is my personal preference most of the time - I recommend the WF OC 8Gb version from Gigabyte.
Interesting. I also have a 1050Ti OC 4gb in my main computer. Does the CPU and Ram have any effect on the mining capability? I'm asking cause I have some old mobo's with old cpu's and ram(like amd athlon 2 dual cores and ddr 2 4 gig ram type shit) that I could throw together in a milk crate for some mining.
