What kind of hardware do you have? Do you have any GPUs? What kind and how many? First you need to figure out what algorithm is good for your hardware. Check whattomine.com for some ideas. Then you go get the miner suited for that algo. Search and read some threads here for some ideas, and how to set them up. Title: Re: Best program to mine?

Minergate is not a good choice either. I would never do Cloud Mining already red some bad things about it, but I dont trust Minergate at all What kind of hardware do you have? Do you have any GPUs?

Search and read some threads here for some ideas, and how to set them up. I have a HyperX fury 8 RAM 2133 MHz and GeForce GTX 1050Ti. So I'll be able to use 5-6 GPUs I think.

Post by: thoaionline on December 11, 2017, 11:36:59 AM ccminer and excavator are a pretty good starting point. The former is a proven cross-platform, open-source miner, whereas the later is a Windows-only, proprietary miner by NiceHash.
Once you have a bit more experience, you can then switch to coin/algorithm specific specialised miners. Those are generally proprietary so be careful with malware. |
