Which is better for cpu mining xmrig or xmr stack? I have been trying my hand at cpu mining with xmr stack, but I don't see to hash increase with my 1500x + nvidia gpu setup on nicehash. Nicehash will show me getting around 385-400 h/s on a 1500x oc'ed to 3.9ghz with big fan upgrade, but my revenue only goes up about .25 cents, which seems a bit low(been reading I should be closer to $1). It's also not consistent, as every minute or so it will drop down to 0h/s for a few seconds. Plus, about every 10 minutes I get the error message, "socket error - receive error socket closed." Tried a few things, but no dice. I have page filing set to 10gb and mining cryptonight. Would xmrig show me any improvements? Is there a way to get xmr to mine monero with the cpu? Thank you.
Your hashrate seems to be on the average side of the 1500x.
About your socket error its probably concerning your network , if you have a wifi dongle or whatever.
Myself i have these usb wifi adapters TP-link TL-WN725N and they dont work on windows 10 at all, just socket error all the time.
tried all drivers from tp link etc, but its just crap, only drivers that work are the cd drivers that come with for windows 7.
