Ok so i decided to post my pool review, there are current 3 pools that i know about. 2 pools with 10% fee and coinosaurus with 5% accused of taking 8% by the other pools
I have mined on all 3 for a long period of time and my gpus are 4 Vega 56 1 Vega 64 and 3 1070ti
I started mining at Eggpool with 10% fee, my findings there was that the pool has good speed at Nvidia but the miner is almost non working state for my Vegas.
Also, the pool diff is very high so i found myself finding lots of shares in some rounds and very few in others and in many of those rounds with less shares there where more blocks
But this seems like the main pool for Nvidia Atm. But as my main gpu count is amd this was not working for me at all. Pool has great support in discord, and also the most current hash rate with majority of blocks found.
http://eggpool.netSo i tried
http://bis-pool.net/ This gave my instant way better hash and income on my AMD Vega cards, maybe 2-3 % less speed on Nvidia, but my income whent up 20-30% as my main gpu count is AMD, miner with this tuneup in miner. Wich makes a huge diff in hash rate:
and add this lines for each card ofcourse and change device....
Pool have 10% fee, so i decided to run this for 4 days and see my average
and then ended up at coinosaurus
https://bismuth.coinsaurus.com, with 5% fee. This pool is claimed to have 8% fee and false reported hashrate in miners. Its giving about 20-25% better hash on both my nvidia 1070ti and my Vegas with this tuneups
miner_name=VEGA56
work_size_factor=8
cpu_damping_factor=0.8
I think i had to up cpu daming a bit on my 2x 1070 ti and worksize 7 to make it stabile there but rest is working with that tuneup
I got once i started mining there 10-15 % more income and peaked some day at 25% more income, this can be due to downtime at some pool, but this pool had also downtime in 1 hour now and then when i started mine there.
After running this 3 pools i ended up staying at coinosaurus, also due to low pool diff so it seems like a more fair distribution of blocks mined compare to eggpool. And are also the most transparent pool in my view. You will find zhram0 in discord bismuth channel for support here, even made custom miner for me so i have no complaints in support here either.
All pools have great qualities
I might be wrong in my review, but as miners you should run your own tests. And tune miners at best possible way..
