Thank you for your reply, Call_Me_Bambi.
That helped a lot. First half of your email sort of confirmed what I understood from my research last 3 days and the second half does give me a very good path forward. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I mined XMR first day and SIGN threafter. for 16 USD to 20 USD a week, returnwise.
Poolwise I used MinerGate and NideHash.
I see returns 20%-25% better on other pools/coins/algos on whattomine, and those seem to change almost daily.
Since my hashpower is limited to 2x RX560, I take a while to mine enough for a payout.
Should I stay focused on 1 or 2 pools and use their algos (both pools have multi algos) or shold I just swap pool on a daily basis based on whattomine suggests?
Also, on whattomine I don't see the 560 so I usually pick 1x 570 and I sort of imagine it should be about as much hashrate as 2x 560.
What card(s) should I use on whattomine to get the best returns for 560?
Lastly.... Power.
My Mobo has 4x PCIs but my PSU is 400w. I believe I am on my power limmit with my current 2x RX560 as you also pointed.
Should I:
1) stick to my current rig as it is (2x RX560) and use it to learn more for another 2 months before investing
2) get a 600 PSU and 2x RX560 = 600 USD investment = 20 USD/week = 30 week ROI
3) new 6x 560 budget rig = 1800 USD investment = 60 USD/week = 30 week ROI
4) new 6x 570 or 6x580 rig (didn't make the maths yet)
Both will take about the same time to pay themselves, the difference is that second option has more risk, but if the whole mining thing doesn't collapse, I will have a higher return once investment is covered. What do you think? I live in central europe and a 570 8GB costs 3x as much as a 560 4GB. 580 8GB costs 4x. I didn't consider rigs with 570 or 580. Should I?
