I'm curious to see the result : don't forget to let us know how much you earned after one month here Smiley

I'm mining Ethereum right now, but thinking about switching some day..

don't switch, you will be earning less than you do now

are you sure ? what makes you say that ?

I honestly don't know what you mean when you say ' NONE of the coins of nice hash are publicly traded" ...Huh? Nicehash does not have their own coins, they act as the middle man for Joe Public to buy hashing power from miners and point that hashing power at the coins that Joe Public wants. If you check this link there are over 50 different coins you can buy hashing power for, they are all publicly traded.

https://www.nicehash.com/buy

oh there so much more than a middle man lol, they buy and sell hashing power, but they also have there own coins and pools
when you go on whattomine.com and see any coin that has -nicehash is there own coin and is not publicly traded, you will NOT find it on ANY crypto exchange mmk, the buying and selling of hash power is only a portion of what makes up nicehash.


You clearly don't understand how NiceHash works. They do not have their own coins. They pay out in Bitcoins from buyers who are placing orders for hashing power. Ultimately, mining on NiceHash is more efficient than mining on a pool, so it will pay better for most miners.





if they did not have there own coin why does whattomine.com list multiple algorithms with there logo  and says *algorithm name*-nicehash
want to explain that one since you seem to know it all

you cant sit there and tell me that's not there own coin, if it wasn't that wouldn't exist they have a fork of multiple algorithms, they don't list the block time, block reward , you can clearly see its not on the normal coins network

No and no no no. Whattomine.com shows how much mining each Algorithm will pay. When it says Nicehash - Equihash it means how much Nicehash will pay for you to rent your hashing power to someone else that will be mining any of several Equihash based coins. There is no such thing as a NiceHash coin, and you really need to research before spreading FUD. Please learn how Whattomine works in addition to the basics of the biggest hashing middle man in the whole industry.

Ok great thanks guys for the help, one more question if anyone can help me. I have evga gtx 1070's sc and sc 2's I have been mining ethereum until today i was ramping up my mem clock with MSI after burner to get the best hash rate do you guys know what settings I would have to mess with to get the best overall rate on nicehash?

Thanks
There is no direct rule that can be applied in any case, I don't know how well Nvidia cards perform in certain algorithms, although, Nicehash will switch into another algorithm that is more profitable at that point. Therefore, if it switches from one algorithm to another, the last algorithm might perform better with an overclocked memory clock, rather than GPU clock.

You could simply adjust both, which is what I did, although that will lead to higher power consumption and increased heat, which might lead to premature wear on your hardware.

again its much more than that buddy, if it were the case to only tell you how much you earn is false, there would be no reason to list any information from nicehash. you have proof to back up your sensational claims that they do not have there own coins? there would be no reason to list the market cap and volume if what you say is true, not to mention the exchange rate is also different. if they didn't have coins of there own they would not be listed on what to mine or coinmarketcap, again they are much more than a middle man, you can believe what you want but its false, if they didn't have forks of coins of there own there would be no listing its that simple, maybe before you tell someone they should learn how to use something better you to should learn how something works

well after a few days or so I stopped using nicehash not because of lower payouts (I think it would have been slightly higher) but because the miner itself would keep crashing my rig kept saying it was low on memory and wanted to close the miner. And since I'm currently on vacation and monitoring my rigs remotely I'm not going to deal with fixing it I know my rigs will mine ethereum with no hiccups no problem so maybe I will switch back to nicehash once I get back home but for now going to stick to ethermine.org Smiley

I can't take anyone serious who doesn't have enough sense to use "their, there or they're" properly in a sentence...

I've had an issue with Nicehash crashing on occasion and I quickly figured out that one of my GPU's doesn't like duel mining.  I simply disabled dual mining on that card and am now running very stable.  I also ran into the memory issue.  I had a 64G SSD drive with a pagefile size set to 24G.  After adding 6 more cards to the rig, I started getting that error.  I added another 64G SSD and set the pagefile to use that drive, now all is good.

All in all, I like Nicehash.  Could i tweak and scrape to get another $.25 or so out of each card.. probably.  Is it worth all of the downtime to do so, not in my opinion because I have a life outside.  I have two sets of cards that I buy and I have BIOS mods for each that work.  I set it and forget it.  They churn out day in and day out and i don't have to worry if the coin I'm mining is taking a hit compared to BTC, which is what my mining is being converted to.  Of course there are always going to be tweaks and mods and those who prefer them.  Are they better?  I suppose it depends on who you are.  If you can't figure out that "they're" means "they are" and "their" means possession, like "It's their prerogative", then I suppose that you're the type that spends more time tweaking than learning and your opinion on the matter is going to favor that.  In reality, it depends on how much interaction you want to have with your rig(s) and what YOU like.
