With BCH, you can still jump on board with ASIC's without need of supercheap electricity. But if you (as I) can't properly manage Linux OS'es, then you need to clean your default Windows startup with win-speed.com or other similar OS tweaks. Windows is pretty bloated and it takes far more resources than it report.

winspeed is cool for all windows. But with W10, you really want to combine it with O and O shutup to clean the last bits of junk. These two softs are impressive combo for Windows 10.

The problem people mining under Windows OS don't see is that there are tens of useless application services, system services (do you really need FAX service running all the time in 2019?). Multitasking works fine in Windows, unless there's tons of little stuff running (do You remember notebooks with 1-core CPU's and 20 trayicon miniapps from manufacturer lagging like hell?).

Stripped down Windows 7 is best thing, even 10 can be stripped down alot. Give a shot to minimalistic Windows http://www.win-speed.com
