mining

I have Ryzen 9 7900, 1x16GB 6400MHz CL32 Hynix A die RAM (1 stick), MSI PRO B850-S mobo, Arctic Freezer 36 CO air cooler. How do I optimize mining monero for maximum efficiency? Thanks!

I've never tried mining before, and I don't know about that setup, but I have a couple of ideas anyway.

  1. You could use the output heat for something useful. That way you might save on some heating costs which changes the profit equation, and you wouldn't need the cooler.
  2. You could monitor the hash price against your electric price and run an algorithm to switch mining on or off based on your preference of when its worth it.

@coolminer Use XMRig as your mining software instead of the standard GUI wallet miner, you can use Gupax for a convenient GUI version. If you want to pool mine, use P2Pool.

@FiatDemise I'm getting around 12 KH. I don't understand how to undervolt some say to lower cpu voltage directly some say use PBO curve optimizer, which one to use?

@coolminer try gupax. Its quite simple to setup, got a easy to understand GUI, can point extra pcs to the main thru XMRig Proxy. And no need for your own node. I got 5 in a single cluster. No hassle at all

@coolminer I didn't think it did, but appears you can. No clue if setup / use that way is as easy as using the GUI, but I would assume you'll be able to figure it out if you already dont use GUIs
