Got it. It's a currency I haven't done any research on. I've mostly been looking at ways to improve my payout from nicehash, and maybe get a piece of the Ethereum mining action. Is GRC easier to mine?

Once you are set up, it is exactly the same amount of effort as any other coin. Getting set up requires a little more work though, as Gridcoin pays out based on contributions to scientific research done through the BOINC platform. You can't 'mine' GRC in the traditional sense --> the compute power of the network is actually put to use here.
There are lots of great tutorials on getting set up, both written and videos. If you have a little patience, you could be fully set up mining in a pool in an hour or tow. To mine solo, give it maybe 2 days of intermittent activity.
