Ethereum/ETH VS ZEC/ZCASH mining

So I have 4 AMD mining rigs mining ETH and ZEC side by side for the last 6 months. Just a couple of simple gpu rigs from the old bitcoin/btc mining days. Anyway I have noticed that the ZEC rigs NEVER go down and I mean NEVER. Geth seems to lose its net connection at least twice a day every day.
The ETH rigs also sound when mining like they are going to burn down the office and run very hot. If you are looking to heat your house next winter then eth is your crypto coin to mine!
ZEC price is much higher and seems to mine at 20-25% better efficiency. Anyone else having this experience with ZEC and ETH?

SPONSOR

While much of a Bitcoiner’s time is spent in the world of digital assets, sometimes it’s nice to own a physical representation of the virtual things you care about. For just the price of a cup of coffee or two (at Starbucks), you can own your own Bitcoin Keychain or the newer Bitcoin Fork Pen.
