I just pushed my headless Apollo II over 2 PH/s with a few remote rentals along with my local miners while solo mining. All of these are low and medium difficulty miners. Has anyone tried using high-difficulty miners on their headless rig? And if so, please relate your experience in doing so. Thanks.

Cheers!

Can anybody answer this question? Thanks.

Cheers!

If you are referring to "pro level" miners like M50's, M60's, S19's & S21's as being "high-difficulty" then yes. The built in pool running CK's pool handles the connection from those miners quite well as will adjust their difficulty based on their hashrate.

Now if you are going to try to rent a chunk of hashrate from a place like Nicehash then no as the default pool difficulty is set too low by default to be compatible with their service. You would need to adjust the CK pool code to have a higher starting difficulty in this case.
