Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

If you mine Zec you would earn 30 cents a day.
If you set clocks correctly you should be okay.

And to add some info, your GPU is the most important piece in the system. If you want to mine and actually earn something you would need a GTC 1060 minimum if u want to go nvidia. For amd you could try with a simple radeon 7950/7970/R9 280 or newer RX 470 cards Smiley

Alright thanks for the clarification
As even i been using pcs for years, i never really over or under clock anything before

Hope i get this right
Overclock : having more hashes with more power output
Underclock : Lower down hashes by saving power

In order to clock, i should take into consderationn of mhash/w and the price per kwh in my country is $0.15

So i will need to find out in which way it provides me the best hash power per watt i paid?

Yes that is the idea... normally decreasing the Core clock and increasing the memory clock is the right way.
Test it and see for yourself. U will need the best hashrate/watt and u are set.
