I have now seen two mentions of Nicehash being more profitable. I’m going to put it to the test against the previous reigning champ in my test (albeit a bit limited in time, but seemingly concise).
I probably won’t update daily, but perhaps every few days or once a week. I’ve been quite busy and summer is a busy time with all the additional work around the property.
This is quite interesting. On nicehash you select sha256boost when setting up the stratum connections.
The middle two miners in this data are on nicehash and the outers are on pega. THe middle have been going for 1/2 day and the outer for 5 days. Typically they are very close.
I’m not so sure I like this at all and I may end this early. All of these machines are immersed.
Sort of another WTF. The top miner correlates to the miner with 134hw errors/24h average and the bottom is the 43.
They should both be right around 134-135.
edit: Disregard this as those aren’t averages or anything. They’re more or less constantly changes vastly. I would think they would be average over 24/hr or since detected as workers.
I’m keeping a close eye on the HW errors. I may pull the plug and go back to pega until I get some custom firmware on the machines.
edit 2: I threw in the towel with the excessive errors. I’ll revisit this again when I can get some custom firmware on it and view things more granularly and tune each chip. I also just had a “net lost reboot” for no reason.
Pega is DOWN so I thought I would give NH a try again for a little since I had some unpaid funds there. The results were the same, unfortunately. I just do not like the huge increase in HW errors on the machines. This is over about 20 hours. HW errors typically settle in around 10/24hr, so massively increased on NH.
