Did you test this setup using any of the mining calculators?

It's true, none of the calculators I've used before had a way to list my system specifications.

It seems likely these components are significantly underperforming on the performance scale, making them impractical. For example, at NiceHash...
https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-c...tx-1050-ti Increasing the GPUs to three times the GTX 1050 Ti results in a loss of $0.15 each day. If you can hire someone else to cover the electricity costs, you earn $0.42 per day or about $150 annually. Your GTX 750s will never turn a profit.
