the point people are making is, you are either not making 4.5$ on nicehash, or your rigs are not optimized for raven and you don't earn enough raven for your config.
nicehash for all of us is about 30% LESS profitable then ravencoin, so what makes your case different? a single 1080TI makes me 1.1$ on nicehashwith powerlimite of 70%, 1.89 with 60% power limit on ravencoin. so besides higher profitable coin, it also consume less power.
can i suggest you make screenshots, write down configs, which miner, which pool etc, so we may be of assistance in getting you a better yield?
im mining with ccminer 64, 3x 1060, 1x 1050ti ,1x 1070 and 1x 980ti, about 70-80rvn per day with 70% power on all cards.i was mining 1 week ago 120 rvn per day.Why such a drop i dont know, atm its more profitable for me to mine on nicehash. If you go to whatmine its more money on nicehash

whattomine is wrong about ravencoin calculations. you need to put in the correct number for it to show the right profitability.
Also, best to look at satoshi /BTC you get per day, not $. then convert the mined ravencoin in value to btc, and compare it that way. there are 5-10% prise swings in a single day already.
I have a feeling you don't mine alot of coins outside of nicehash, network difficulty plays a part in how many ravencoin you get as a reward, i received 2K ravencoin a day 2 weeks ago, now i am makinng 700 a day on my whole setup.
but if i take my whole setup, and put all my hashrates into whattomine, and put in the correct ( daily) price of raven, i always end up 20% more profitable then nicehash.
i run exclusively nvidia's so again, something is off in your calculations. Don't ever trust the estimates of nicehash, they swing around WAY too much. and again i use less power on X16r.
taking a reference 1070 from whattomine for example:
whattomine says you should mine ethereum (30MH/s at 120W ) with a daily reward of 0.00013 BTC
ravencoin on a single 1070 would average at 7,5MH/s and for comparison it should be around 100W in power with a daily reward of 25.31 RVN, which is 0,0001323861 BTC
so that is a 23861 satoshi higher reward. at a 521 satoshi price level of ravencoin, with lower power consumption.
P.S. 7,5 MH/s is low end, my 1070TI's all do 12,5 MH/s at 60% power limit so it should be closer to 9-11 MH/s on a 1070
i hope to provide insight, i am not telling you what to do, but something is off and i hope you find out what is.
