ETH mining
CAUTION: When Proof of Stake starts, all ETH miners will stop. Their hardware will be worthless.

Ethermine.org. See here for correct settings. Good reviews. Connect using program ethermine. Download and run ethermine for Windows or Linux. https://ethermine.org/. 
ASIC rig will always be more profitable. But repairing an ASIC machine is expensive, repairing/replacing a GPU card is cheaper.
