Alternative to Nicehash?

[Thecard1973]

Hi all, first time poster here.

Currently I use nicehash to make extra money.  I am using 5 GPUs (I have a LARGE solar install on my house) and I do around $400 (or more) a month in cash.
I don't care to mine coins and keep them.  I just want to make cash.

Is there some other way to make more money using the hardware that I have?  Or should I stick with nicehash?

Nicehash algorithm is outdated, and I believe that there are more profitable options out there, for example, mining directly on a mining pool is more profitable.
I do not mine anymore, but the last time I checked, direct mining yielded about 5-10% more profit than nicehash. That might not seem like much, but it adds up over time.

Nicehash is the only one that I know that supports multi-mining there is minergate but I do not recommend this one.

If it's ok for you to receive a coin directly like the above said mining directly to the mining pool is the best option you can use this calculator below to know which coin is profitable these days.

And if you are looking for pools I suggest you check this https://miningpoolstats.stream/

Also, check the Awesomeminer the free version will let you mine different coins and calculate your earnings daily the only problem is it's not the same as nicehash that they pay in BTC what you receive are altcoins.

But if you want to mine BTC switching to an ASIC miner like Antminer will let you mine directly to the pool that pays BTC.

Nicehash is most popular and I think it's open source, but I know there are some alternative options you can try.
When I was messing around with mining few years ago I was using software called Awesome Miner that can be set to work with ASIC and GPU mining, but you should know it's not open source.
You can choose your own pools and settings, at least it was like this when I used it, but don't expect to get rich doing this any time soon, unless you have big mining farm.
There is also option called simplemining.net, but you can only use it as free testing for 30 days and then you have to pay for it.

TY all.

I will look into some of the options listed.

If you want to mine different coins and be paid in Bitcoin, similar to what nicehash does, you can use Zergpool.
