XMRig vs XMR-Stak-CPU

[JamesAdams]

Hello, I was looking at CPU miners for mining Monero and I came across these 2. Apparently in some cases the XMRig miner has a slightly higher hashrate but for XMR-Stak-CPU it also has higher hashrate for some CPUs (apparently). I have a Ryzen 5 1600 and I just want to know which CPU miner would give a higher hashrate for me? My OS is Windows 10.

I'll state the obvious answer:  Try them both out and see which one gives you the higher hashrate.

You could always try looking at:

the problem is that not every combination is there at the moment. You could also contribute with your benchmarks ;-)

We recommend xmrig. With a good compilation it's working ok for us.

Sweet nice information here!

Xmrig compiled with gcc 7 under linux gives me slightly more hashrate on all cpus.
