Title: Nicehash Control CCminer setup question ! :)
Post by: DrSnAzZy on August 18, 2014, 06:22:09 PM
I have a few questions. I just setup my Nicehash Control yesterday on 3 computers that are mining.

PC #1 Is my Dedicated 6 750ti card mining rig (MSI cards)

PC#2 has 3 evga 750 ti's on it

and pc #3 has 2 750 ti's (MSI)



I currently have it setup like this :


All the configs for the computers are exactly the same. For example My total x11 hash rate is roughly 26mhs - 27 mhs. I have all the configs with "26000" in the X11 hash rate field, and so on for the other algos according to my hash rate.

They are all pointed to Multiminingrigrent.com as i like that website because i can remotely control where the rigs are pointed from there by changing 1 address rather than changing each rig (if i wanted to go off westhash pool.) They are all pointed at the according west hash stratum. Im set up for NIST5, x15, x11, and x13.

My question is should i have all the rigs hash rates PER rig individually in the config? My mining rig does roughly 15.5 mh/s , should that be the number in the config file? or am i correct by putting my total hash rate including all my Pc's running as the rate used for calculation in the config file. Smiley just trying to get the best profit.


1 more question, is the POWER field per card? or for the whole rig/mining operation?

Bump anyone use this tool?

This would have probably been noticed quicker if it was posted in the NiceHash Control (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=655022.0) thread.

As for your questions...

Each rig should have its hash rates calculated individually as the switching will happen at the rig level. Different rigs perform differently per algorithm so trying to harmonize the rates across several rigs will give you sub-optimal results.

Hashrate and power are for the entire rig, not one card.  The program doesn't know how many cards you have.  It just calculates a cost of power for the rig while mining.  If you have a dedicated mining rig, then the power should be the wall reading as this is how much it is costing you to run the rig.

Hey sorry for the incorrect post, thanks for the info.
