Hi. I will start mining altcoins, like dash, ethereum (mainly eth) zcash, etc. So i'm wondering about a question, some people overclock, some people underclock for several reasons, like heat or electricity bills. My reality is i don't care about bills or heat, i just want the best hashrate possible, So... overclock or underclock a card? I have an amd rx 470 4gb msi armor. And some other cards are coming.

So....
Assuming you have the hardware and software...just try it.
Run a month underclocked
Run a month overclocked
Run a month at stock.

What gives YOU the best return on this "almost free" [strike](global warming)[/strike] electricity?
