Yeah you gotta becareful with different algos because some use more power than others. The biggest issue is whether your PSU can handle it and also depending on how you have your risers powered.
If you are using those SATA connectors to power your riser and you start to mine a more power intensive coin, you might end up melting those connectors even though they were previously fine. Right now profitability is in the toilet. You can switch algos and coins but in the end your profits will more or less be the same.
The fact that you got those 100 RX 470 GPUS for free is proof that mining is dead.

Thanks everyone for the replies.
It looks like DNX is the best one to mine a the moment. Spent the week/weekend setting up the cards and have 90 online as of right now, the last 10 seem to be duds or non functional. lets see where this goes.

Where am I pointing these cards?
KawPow looks to be the most profitable on whattomine but 10 dollars a day from 100 cards?
Is there anything else that may fetch more profit?
If you want to get the best profit, then choose the most profitable coin. Today it is DYNEX (DNX)KawPow looks to be the most profitable on whattomine but 10 dollars a day from 100 cards?

Mining this coin is good because video cards do not overheat and in this mode the power consumption is less than when mining coins using the kawpow algorithm.
The best profit is $13 per day, but I don't believe that all your video cards will work perfectly. These video cards have a lot of cooling systems without gas and other problems, so the next 2 months will be very busy for you to set up mining and remove defective GPUs.
The hashrates on hashrate.no are not correct. The 470/570 can reach up to 3300h @ 60w software readed power (depends with the gpu manufacturer).
Biggest problem on this site, the hashrates not up to date for many cards, mostly the older cards, they only work with power consumption over software -> as we all know this is incorrect.
Many dual mining option or single algos are not tested or not well tested.
Whattomine is more "accurate" in terms of power usage, but no dual mine options.
Hashrate.no must work more with the community to get and keep it up to date, but thats not the case.

with 470 better you sell that free electric compared to mining these very moment, just cant imagine 10kw/hr throwing for nothingor you can sell those gpus buying some cheap coin at the moment, and enjoying your life, isnot easy manage 100 gpus, if nothing worthed to paid for

Be careful with kawpow on rx470. This algo uses more power and more heat. Rx470 old card you need to do very good maintance before start. All coins pays nearly same 1cent more or less

No, Speculative mining something in hope the price goes up is about all you can do.
