By far the easiest to setup an run, especially if your running more than 4 or 5 cards is SimplemingOS. Write it to a 16Gb flash drive, change the email to yours, pop it in and done. Goto the website frontend and setup whatever you want to mine. Windows can be a bit buggy ie; this latest WIN 10 forced update crap but to me it has the most flexibility for a novice, plus more software support, plus I can triple mine on my rigs under Windows.

Unless your fluent in Linux you'll get better hash rates on a Windows machine. Just my experience, praesto Btw, the title of this thread wasn't whats the best OS for free, the op was just asking opinions on a OS choice I tried EthOS v1 when it first came out, fought with it for almost a bitcoin mining ubuntu vs windows speeds to get the same hash as I was getting on a Win 7 machine.

I tried bitcoin mining ubuntu vs windows speeds again in the last month or so, upgraded to the latest version at the time, still a PITA to configure. If you think that's the easiest, then try SimplemingOS, that'll blow your mind and it's free for now.

Just my 2 cents That is what builds the community for the forum, we will agree to disagree there. It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons! February in Mining. Ubuntu or Windows for mining ETH? Windows is a hack. No difference with hash rates between the 2 on my end, so I went with Windows as it's also running other miners sha and scripts, so it's easier for me. Windows 7 or 8. With windows you can adjust voltage right in the driver window if your card can support it, supposedly you can adjust voltage in linux, but I haven't found it yet.

It was running about 78C. It seems more stable under windows while overclocked. Not overclocked its the same with either system, about 27Mhs. With linux you can make a headless system, so it gets disturbed less and hashes more over time, than if you're mining with your desktop. You could do the same with windows I suppose. Can you take photo of the overclock settings? EthOS is the easiest solution. May edited May Guys, do you recommend any specific version of Win10 for eth mining?

It also depends on how many GPU you want to use. If you're not familiar with Ubuntu it's my casethe setup is more complicated but still it is achievable. Windows if you wish to use Nvidia cards. I have both Win 10 and Xubuntu rigs setup. I am unaware of that being possible in linux. If you want best free OS then just get a linux based distro.

I use Xubuntu and am currently having an 8 gpu setup on it. September edited September Post edited by Klintistwood bitcoin mining ubuntu vs windows speeds September I am a long standing Ubuntu user, but usually I don't mess with 3D stuff in Ubuntu because it's a real pain to get all the drivers sorted. I never even got to the GUI with those drivers because of some versioning issue. I did get 3D acceleration with the open bitcoin mining ubuntu vs windows speeds drivers, but it wouldn't mine for more than 15 seconds.

So that was a bust. It was really easy and auto-updated. Anybody could use that, even someone who doesn't know Linux at all. After a lot more tinkering in Windows Bitcoin mining ubuntu vs windows speeds got things up to I haven't tried EthOS. For me, I'd say Windows wins because I couldn't do anything to match those same speeds with Linux based systems. I also didn't want to pay money for something that I didn't already own which may or may not work. Buy windows 10 on ebay for The other problem you have with anything like simple mining is they get you hooked and then once your used to the product or locked in via an update they will start charging, and bitcoin mining ubuntu vs windows speeds you have all the time to reconstruct your work you will be in a pickle with no options!!!!!!

Anyoption. The purpose was each time to justify why the United States took the offensive operation far beyond its own boundaries and without being attacked itself. I had been considdering purchasing leonArdo but when they announced a Pi version that made my mind up.
