My second ZEC + XMR+ ETH thread builds info links thoughts and photos.

so i do have some better  cpus in a few rigs.  I guess I can try mining it on nicehash.  I hope it works with windows 7 as all my rigs have windows 7

Phil any reason why you dont want to switch to Win10?

I purchased 10 windows 7 pro coa's  for 250 a year ago.

I have 2 left. 

I will move to win 10  once they are gone.


I like win 7  always worked well for me.

I am also getting tired of learning new os's

been doing it too long and too many times.

well you are in luck then
win7 has the best gpu build at 40sols a card

All you need to make an installation of Win10 from official Microsoft image - and enter key from your Win7

So you will have 10 Win 7 rigs

Guys, do you think mining ETH is still the best way to ROI our gpus at the moment ?

I think my method will stay with eth on 4 four card rigs.

and do zcash on 1 two card rig.

[vg54dett]

I would try 1 rig on Zcash too.

But is it possible yet ? Later today if I understood well.

As nothing seems to be very clear yet, do you know what software will you use ?

pretty clueless at the moment.

I just check threads for a while till it makes some sense to me.

It looks like still no Windows wallet

Miners are pretty buggy so first week of mining will be fun

As of right now no. It's not live. They are based in California so it's still earlier there. They said 8am California time genesis block should be ready. And honestly unless something happens in the coding it's a slow start anyways ~34days till full block reward is even given. Plus the first 4 years devs get like % of block finds So there is time for solid stable miners to come out. Also exchange would be the only option for a wallet for windows users right now

[HerbPean]

I wish we had a windows wallet.

The price at Bitmex is just plain insane ... 1.5 BTC at the moment for ONE coin...

That would be insane for mining profit.

[LoneRangir]

When there is no supply, the price can be as high as it wants!

What is the best option for a Online wallet for Zcash ?

hopefully Jaxx, but I will be elated if Coinbase takes it up...

if only Claymore has a ZEC miner.... life would be complete

Not sure if it's legit ... but they propose a Windows miner

If I can get higher revenue per day with zcash, no brainer to convert all ETH rigs to mine ZEC at full speed.

Assuming every ETH miner will be drawn to the new honeypot, going back to mine ETH and take advantage of the lower difficulty will be a good strategy too.

I have tried the Windows miner and ran my most powerful 6xNano rig with it.... I couldnt get the 40sol/s per card as benchmarked for R9 Nanos (64 computes). I think the Windows GPU miner still has a long way to go.

I just installed Jaxx on my phone.

Thanks, it's great !

Are you going to mine Z or stick to ETH for now?
