Thought about mining a long time ago and put it to the back of my mind. Obviously with the recent hack it's made me look into it again.

Rig already has a pair of W/C 1080Ti's and adding another pair (including W/C) is no issue.

ZED has caught my eye and after calculating power draw/cost/hashrate it seems to be a smart choice.

Total noob so need to setup a wallet and find a platform to use to mine.

Wallet - Coinpayments looks good on the face of it. Small tax for changing coin/currency as as nvidia seems to be small coin mining i'll need to trade.

Mining platform - nicehash sounded ideal but obviously a spanner in the works now. If possible i'd like to dedicate a pair of gpu to ZED and the other pair to whatever is the most profitable at the time.

Probably been asked a million times before but after having tolled through various threads a lot goes over my head and am only asking for a point in the right direction for software to use.

Currently running 8700k/32GB, cpu mining doesn't really interest me unless profit is higher to cover depreciation in chip, i.e 7980xe. Intel chips plummet like a lead balloon. Setting up a threadripper rig also no problem, or even a low spec intel chip/mobo to slightly reduce running cost.

I'm all ears, show me the way... Smiley
