Title: Best pool for smaller mining rigs? Post by: pd7 on June 24, 2014, 05:57:29 AM I searched on the forums, but all I found was kinda dated, basic information on pools. I'm just wondering if anyone has personal experience with similar hashing power at a pool that would make more than slush's pool is right now. I'm making roughly .00032 per round right now on slush, and when I first started almost a year ago, I was making just about .01 per round. Obviously its gonna go down, but I'm barely making anything right now :/ I was using p2pool.org occasionally, but lately that doesn't even seem to work at all.
Any thoughts? Looking for someone close to my situation who's fairing a little better than me with their pool. Thanks! Title: Re: Best pool for smaller mining rigs?

Your payouts will be the same in a few pools ( Assuming there are no fees) within 6 months. Mining certainly isn't the best money earning method right now as the difficulty is going up quite fast. You might want to try to mine at Eligius, I had good experiences with them.Any thoughts? Looking for someone close to my situation who's fairing a little better than me with their pool. Thanks!

I would go for btcguild, but it's pool luck is running low. You should get a fair bit more from either of those pools because I read that slush is only worthwhile for faster miners.

Actually in the long run, the payout should be more or less the same. Except if the fees are different. I wouldn't recommend OP going for those who charge fee since it takes a portion of the earnings.Title: Re: Best pool for smaller mining rigs?

I forgot which thread I read it from, could be the official slush pool topic... they were saying slush pool uses a special score based system which penalises slower miners, and miners could receive nothing if their internet disconnects for a few minutes. Will post link if I find the topic... Title: Re: Best pool for smaller mining rigs?
