hello all , i just finished my rig which GPU is
6 X Sapphire Radeon NITRO+ RX 570 8GB

do i use claymore miner or nicehash , since my friend told me to use nicehash miner since it mines in more than one pool


so do i go with ethereum mining or go with nice hash , i'm very confused and got no good experince to decide

I started with ncehash and would recommend it to you too. Their sales prices are pretty good and they auto optimize.

For beginners and startup nicehash is recommended, it has a friendly UI that could engage even the not so technical users.

but if you want flexibility/control on miners and ability to trade coins you mine, then you could go to other miners like Claymore

I started around a half year ago with Nicehash - as a "newbie noob" you can't do anything wrong with it basically. When you dive deeper into the matter you can look around what there is outside of the NiceHash space. ;D

Cheers

You can try NiceHash or Winminer

Nicehash will earn you btc, and claymore will earn you alts. Of course at the end you always want btc but it's good to mine alts and cash out in a spike or keep the alts for whatever purpose, sometimes you mine to get a masternode or to have enough to stake or to have a particular benefir from that blockchain by holding those coins. It depends how deep you want to get because if you don't want to complicate too much just mine in nicehash.

Nicehash is a very easy to use miner and also has profit switching. Claymore is good if you're only interested on dagger-hashimoto coins and their dual mining counterparts and a bit more specialized but you could also run it through Nicehash only when most profitable. Nicehash can't help you optimize it all that much though. Also there's the fact that Nicehash has an efficient autotrading method that will only yield you BTC at the best market rates while claymore's miner will leave you with the alts you mine for you to trade or hold.

It's a matter of preference in the end, based on this multitude of factors.

NiceHash is easy to use, but brings in less $$$ than other pools. There are several other pools that also convert to BTC.


You seem to have a nice rig. If you could earn 1.5 USD more per day at another pool, that's 35 USD per month extra. To me that's reason enough to check out other pools.

If you eventually know your hashrate for an algorithm, you can use my tool to compare pools:

My tool is in test phase but has proven to be pretty accurate.. :)

Nicehash is super easy to use but will usually get you less $$$ when compered to other miners/pools. On the other hand every other combination will require some settings and if you are not technically savvy I suggest you start with nicehash and gradually learn to implement other solutions.

You could always try Nemos. Pretty easy.

thanks all for help , i'll start with nicehash miner while i learn about pools and everything


i've read about overclocking and undervolting the gpu , do i do it manually before using the nicehash miner or leave it as it is ?
