today I am going to set up my first mining rig with 6 XFX RX480 8gb GPUs, and I would like to install Claymore's dual miner on it, so I was wondering, which one is more profitable atm?
ETH+DCR, ETH+SIA, or ETH+Lbry?
For me ETH+SIA is the most profitable. But it may vary in your case, you could check with your equipment. Win10 is OK, but you have to tune it (
disable telemetry, disable useless services)
I use Win7, cheaper, less mess to deal with. You can run WattMan, to change clocks. I leave clocks alone and undervolt a lot. May be an issue with 6 cards though, I have 5 working by disabling IGP, going to try 6 soon. Win10 should be fine for 6 cards, I just had weird issues with clocks getting stuck on idle, may be just me though.
I would say right now profit Sia > Lbry > DCR, but look at
www.whattomine.com480 will do ~
Sia 24.5MH + 600MH
DCR 24.5MH + 900MH
Lbry 22MH + 50 MH
Check your hashrates though, varies slightly between cards. I undervolt to get solid boost clocks without increasing power limit, and less heat. OC only helps secondary coin, so I don't feel it worth it.
