Hi guys,
are you still mining ETH?
For my 5 rigs (couple of 1060 6gb and 1070) every calculator estimates that ZEC is bringing ~200$/month more than mining directly ETH.
So are you mining alt-coins and (maybe) transfer into ETH, or directly mining ETH still?
What are your tips here? :P

My options are 1) Continue to mine ethereum (Poor option) 2) Switch to mine another alt coin like Zec (poor option) 3) Cut my losses and GTX 1070 SLI (Hmm tempting)
ZEC mining is more profitable than ETH at this moment in time. That is because there was a huge rise in difficulty in the last 24 hours. A lot of people are going to stop mining ethereum in the next few days because it is not profitable for them. I just don't have the appetite to switch to Zec which is just about break even for me. I had planned to switch to alt coins when I was planning this thing as a fail safe but to be honest my preferred fail safe is to use the 2 1070s as SLI.
Yeah sure, everybody can use whattomine and check whats the "best" option.
Mining Eth with my 5 Rigs is wasted time - I liked mining Eth..all my Nvidia-Rigs were very silent.
While farming alt coins like zec/zen, sigt, vtc, ..there is more core power needed and therefore more fan spinning ^^
dual mining is still best option
