Title: Bought a 137MH/s Miner -- What should I mine? Post by: dcorn24 on September 17, 2017, 09:06:19 PM Hey Everyone!
I just bought a miner and am excited to start mining. It is currently set up for Ethereum, but I'm wondering as things get harder to mine, if there is a better coin to start mining with higher profit potential. Here are the Specs: Parts and accessories include: (1) 1000W Power Supply (6) MSI NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1060 GPU's (1) MSI Pro Series Intel Z270 DDR4 USB 3 CrossFire ATX Motherboard (1) Samsung 750 EVO - 120GB SSD (1) Intel Core i3-7100 7th Gen Core Desktop Processor (2) Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz (6) PCIE riser Cables Anyone have suggestions? Thank you!! Title: Re: Bought a 137MH/s Miner -- What should I mine? Post by: nsummy on September 17, 2017, 09:07:56 PM what did you buy exactly?

Etherium is fine on nVidia, but equihash coins like Zcash, Zencash, Zclassic, HUSH are better. Library is also a good coin for nvidia... skunkhash coins, tribus coin like Denarius, and plenty more. Just go to whattomine.com put in the number of your 1060 GPUs and see what is the most profitable today.

just try https://www.nicehash.com you don;t need to worry about what coin to mine there, you can just pick up a algo to mine ;D much simpler, right? and they also provide the algo calculator for you so that you can pick up your most profitable algo Title: Re: Bought a 137MH/s Miner -- What should I mine? Post by: Undefined31415 on September 18, 2017, 02:14:27 AM Are they 3GB 1060s, or 6GB?
For 3GB 1060s, I'd definitely look into Zcash and other Equihash coins. Ethereum is usually not that great for the 3GB 1060 cards. For 6GB 1060s, ETH may be a better choice, but still look at Equihash coins. Since you mentioned the entire rig gets about 137 Mh/s on ETH, I'm guessing you have the 6GB cards, but please clarify anyways. |
