Mining Disinformation

One page on how to build a mining rig claims that WhatToMine shows stock numbers.  No...for GeForce GTX 1060s they list 22.5 MH/s on Ethereum, which is an average overclock.  I have some cards that start out at 15 stock, and only make it to 20 OC'ed.  Some go up to 23.5.  It seems to be the hardware lottery.  I've read that Hynix memory is the stuff that sucks, but I can't run the hardware check because they're all for Windows.

Speaking of, the aforementioned page links to another site that has activation keys for cheap.  I'm thinking it must be pirated somehow, but at $43.49 for Windows 10 Professional and Office 2016, it's tempting....
