Should I mine monero or bytecoins?
And how much hashrate can I get?Will it be profitable if electricity cost is very low?

I have attached the image on the thread.
I have a xeon E5 V3@2.3 Ghz with 16 cores.
According to some benchmarks I should get 800~900 H/s.But minergates GUI miner is giving me only 350 for XMR.



Will I get more hash if I switch to wolf's miner?

Don't waste your equipment at minergate. Mine at a pool like https://web.xmrpool.eu - Low fees at this pool and payout at 0.3 XMR.

I recomend using nicehash, atleast at start to watch which coins they mine. Its not bad with fees now either when they intergrated with Coinbase with free transfers. Really easy to use aswell and a good baseline for learning.

I'd suggest mining cobalt. I hear it's prices are going to go up soon due to the electric car industry.
