Hello!
I've tried almost all the proposed options for mining on the market, using video cards and processors. Frankly, at this moment the most profitable mining on modern video cards is Zcash on the Claymore. Even with the devfee and of course if your cards consume a moderate amount of energy.
MinerGate looks very comfortable, especially for beginners, but the profit gives less.
For processors, the monero is better suited, it can generally be digged on any device, unless of course it is obsolete.

It depends on what you call a modern video card. I have read here on the forum that Nvidia cards are better suited for mining Zcash although I am mining with mine Ethereum as it yields me a bit more for a card. You should check what to mine to check the profitability of a graphic card. This is what I do I go check that website and point my cards to the most profitable algorithm I see there.

Bitcoin FTW!
If you want the most out of your machine and you want to earn as much as possible, try finding a coin you're interested in and has a good average profitability (I.E Ethereum, Monero, ZCash, etc.), and try to mine to a pool for the coin you choose and configure the miner and your graphics card yourself. This way, you're gaining experience, saving on fees and earning a bit more as a result.

First post here.  Smiley  Hi.

Anyway I am doing well with one-click miner but was wondering if there would be a better option out there.

I tried MinerGate but was getting a terrible hashrate. 

I like the idea of it automatically switching to the best value coin at any given moment.

I also don't want it to be overly technical. 

Thanks.

Minergate is well known for offering lower than actual hashrate of your mining devices like graphic cards or processors. You can try to switch to Winminer winminer.com or to Nicehash nicehash.com. Both have automatic switch to the most profitable coin you are asking and both offer real hashrate of your devices.

You'll probably be paying a premium for the automatic switching service.

I'm not sure you want your payouts to be separated into a bunch of useless coins.

If that's the case, having the payout in a single coin implies a premium too.

This is a bitcoin mining section. You dont switch coins when all that you mine is bitcoin.
