so a while back i ordered:
5x https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B076XX769R/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
at a pre-order price of 98euro + delivery

What would you recommend to mine on these? I was thinking of mining Ethash but it seems most people are saying cryptonight is better...
I generally run that on overpowered CPU rig's just to weigh off some of the costly load those rigs have at idle.

I can see mos tpeople suggesting aroudn lets say 550hs for Cryptonight vs lets say 15mh/s ethash... Now to me right now that makes ethash more profitable on most coins... and I would expect if i mined eth for the value to increase over the year more than say "monero" in terms of %'ages...

So why are people mining cryptonight on these?

Well, judging by this page

https://www.cryptunit.com/

it seems that cryptonight algorithm is dead for CPU/GPU mining, and ASICs took over

So, back to ethash, although there are doubts that ASICs are taking over it too,
it seems more profitable ATM

But most of the bigger cryptonight coins will fork the algo so the asics become useless pieces of metal
