I see threads for people that make miners but im wondering if there is a night and day difference between the 2?

im using a program called cryptogoblin and this was its result on my 15 7600k'

HASHRATE REPORT
-----------------------------------------------------------
| ID | 5s | 60s | 15m | ID | 5s | 60s | 15m |
-----------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | 59.65 | (na) | (na) | 1 | 64.79 | (na) | (na) |
| 2 | 65.56 | (na) | (na) |
-----------------------------------------------------------
Totals: 190.00 (na) (na) H/s
Highest: 196.23 H/s

and these are the results from my video card miner called xmr-stak-nvidia

HASHRATE REPORT
| ID | 10s | 60s | 15m |
| 0 | 601.3 | 603.0 | (na) |
---------------------------
Totals: 601.3 603.0 (na) H/s
Highest: 611.8 H/s

will one of these programs people post here double my power?

Nope, but a second gpu will double your hashing power. And guess what ... A third one will triple it! Holy Jesus! I can do math! ... Lol.
