Hi,
I've just configured GPU mining on my linux box. I'll be mining mostly during nights. It is worth to add headless configuration to it, and run it headless for mining?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

There is no difference. Besides, I believe X needs to run anyway

I don't see how a headless/head unit would make your mining slower or faster if you are using the monitor at night.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. It's just that yours is stupid! =D
