If you don't want to constantly check which currencies are the most profitable, just use nicehash. Their client will automatically switch to the most profitable algorithm as it changes. I have my desktop with a GTX 1080 and an i7-6850k mining with their client and I'm getting about $70-$90 just off of that rig. Not that huge of a profit, but it's winter hear so I'm generating money while heating my apartment, instead of losing money heating it.

Electroneum, metaverse ETP, minexcoin, bitcoinZ, bitcoin gold...
No shortage of new coins to mine. Just need to look at pools(altcoin) and announcement threads.

I'm not an expert on mining, but for individual mining with small rig, newer and relatively unknown coins are the only option for profit.
Whatever it may be, ethhash equihash, cryptonote or scrypt, just jump in on low difficulty and hold the coins until they reach to exchange.

It's been slim pickings though. All I see are airdrops and ICO. Or they are POW/POs with Scrypt/SHA256 and/or WalletBuilder coins.
I know BTG is coming soon, but I think everyone and their Mom is going to mine that and is likely not to be a cash cow.

I recently got a new computer with GTX 1070. I have been tinkering with mining, but have been checking WhatToMine fairly frequently. This is starting to hurt my home life for only about 1.50 USD per day, profit. getting up at 5:30 am to check what I should be mining isn't helping either. 
Any suggestions on what a more balanced strategy would be? The nagging from my partner is starting to increase...
PS: I've already limited my choices between Nicehash, ZCash, Zencash, Hush, and Bitcoinz. But even toggling between these 4 options is taking an inordinate amount of my time.
