Topic: mhash threshold for solo mining - page 2. (Read 4572 times)
I think the key factor in solo vs pool mining is your current probability of finding a block before the next difficulty increase. So even with a high hash rate it would be better to do pooled mining when a difficulty increase gets close.
The pool just minimizes the "luck factor", that’s all. Although I think that you shouldn’t mine solo if you can’t expect to get at least a block per difficulty period. Check here.
So no, there’s no magic number. There’s only personal preference.

Is there a a magic number for solo mining? Aka lets say your mining at 2,000 Mhashes. Would it be be more profitable doing it solo than in a pool since you have a higher chance of finding a block?
