Hello,

I just built my new gaming rig and wanted to start mining. I was planning to mine with nicehash since it was easy for beginners but it looks like I have to find out the hard way. I have heard that you can do dual mining with both CPU and GPU. Can anyone help me how to set it up and any lessons learned...? I have went to https://whattomine.com/ and it says that ETN is the most profitable coin. According to some youtube videos, they say that ETN is mined with CPU. I want to mine with GPU as well but I am still lost how this dual mining works... or if it is even safe... Help.. fellow miners!

My Rig:
MSI X299 SLI Plus
Intel I7-7800X
Corsair RMX850
CORSAIR Hydro H105I Liquid Cooler
ASUS ROG GeForce GTX 1080 Ti DirectX 12 STRIX-GTX1080TI-O11G-GAMING 11GB 352-Bit GDDR5X

Thank you.
