Hey guys! Been reading you for a while now, but subscribed only yesterday.
I just built a new home PC that I use for mining. I will sometimes work on it, but I'm no gamer, so the discrete GPUs are only used for mining. And right now, I don't use the PC for anything but mining, just to make sure I don't interfere with it.
PC specs:
My questions:
- Is 45 to 60 shares per hour "normal" for my hardware? (uncle rate between 0% and 5%)
- Is such a fluctuation normal? (I guess it depends a bit on luck/probabilities)
Thanks a lot for your time and help!
By the way, I'm new to mining, but I am an experienced software developer as well as a part-time sysadmin (Linux and Windows). You can go technical on me.
