Hi I am using minergate on one machine with one Zotac GTX 1050 Mini. What confuses me is the hashrate can go up to 81KH/s. When I use a XEON to mine the hashrate is just a few hundred. Why is this small graphic card doing so much better?

It is doing smart mining, I am not sure which Crytpo it is mining at the time.
Smart mining changes which Cyptro currency automatically to mine base on profitability.

The Dashboard says my GPU is just doing 140H/s. I don't understand why the screen capture I shown say 81KH/s. I must have missed something here.

Only use of Minergate would to get a easy to use basic understanding of cryptocoin mining, after you understand the basics just stop using it!!

Learn how to install a Miner program and use another pool.

the minergate 6.8 client reports it way incorrectly, you would have to use 6.6 for more correct reporting. Also just as the others have recommended its good to use to start and get familiar with mining but afterwards user other miner software
