Finally, my first half rig is up and running, pretty easy to setup after all  Grin

6xASUS 1070 DUAL OC power target 100w core -100 vram 960 (+480) ethash @ 178-181 MH/s 670w at power socket, sounds good.

There are only two aspect I still can't get satisfied about one or two things.
First the cpu fan is quite noise compared to the other twelve fans of the gpus, anyone has some tips on ot? (no cpu mining, g4400, asrock h110 pro btc+).

Second, the wtm switcher works, but I have some doubts it could be useful for small rigs like mine since switching from one pool to another will dramatically increase the payout time so even if an altocin is more profitable right now maybe it will go lower in value when I will be able to withdraw/exchange it.  Any smart opinion or suggestion is welcome.

Third, but I'm quite convinced here, thank you for bringing us nvOC to all who contributed to the project.


Welcome to nvoc world Wink

The CPU fan is not controlled by nvoc. Usually stock Intel fans are not very noisy but if it bothers you too much you can always replace it with aftermarket fan.

Some people like WTM switcher and are using it constantly. Is it worth switching coins all the time? Some think it is, some not.
Personally I don't use it at all. I stuck with mining one coin only as i firmly believed in it and it paid off. I started mining ETH when it was as low as $150. It had its ups and downs... recently jumped to $1500 and it settled around $1000 now. It was one of the few coins that showed most resilience to the recent crash, while other coins lost 30-50%, ETH lost only half of that. Lots of crypto analysts predict that will surpass any other coins in growth this year and expect to reach $5,000-10,000 by the end of 2018. HODL!
