Wow, that's a bit of a mixed response! Pretty much matches everything I've read though. Different things seem to work for different people.
Does anybody know what the current profits are for mining Ethereum with RX 580's? If so, what's the best way of going about this?
I've just seen on whattomine that Metaverse is the current most profitable RX 580, so that's another option, maybe using DodoPool. Any advice on this would be welcome too, thanks!
Andy I'm new to this game too; started last month. I have fifteen RX580's and a dozen GTX1060's (only eight of those in-service). I use SmOS (simplemining.net operating system) and mine ETH exclusively with Nanopool. The "real world" numbers are basically this: I am making
more money per day than WhatToMine.com says I should be making. I attribute that to Nanapool's setup and my GPU's processing more shares than WhatToMine can estimate. For example, WhatToMine is estimating like $3.67/hr yet I just looked at my proceeds overnight (ETH price has been stable), and over the last 13 hours my mining proceeds have netted me $4.29/hr. That is a 14% difference from estimate to reality. $88/day versus $103/day.
