Get 6x 1080 Ti for best density and no need for extra components. That's what I ordered for six rigs.

for other algos then all scales pretty the same so you can chose if you want density for a premium or if you want lot of rig to administer and pay a lil less
If you have more rigs, that means you're paying for more motherboards, CPUs, RAMs, racks and power supplies.
It might be more cost-effective to get more expensive cards.

yep so now im stock with 6 1060s or 3 1070 plus 1 1060 since it will cost the same here  in my country

if you aim to buy to mine eth 1050 or 1060 are the better as hashrates scales good with the price spent  and power consumption

eg :1 1050 ti hashes 14 - 16 mh/s power 30-50w

1 1060 3gb costs 50% more but hashes also 50% more and consumes also 50% more ( 19 mhs 60w  22 mhs 70 w 85w 23- 24 mhs)



1070 will has at aroun 28 but will cost 2x 1060 and will consume also  30  - 50% more


so for eth better smaller cards from nvidia


for other algos then all scales pretty the same so you can chose if you want density for a premium or if you want lot of rig to administer and pay a lil less

right now im not considering the 1050ti because some say it can only do 100 sols on zec miners. Zec will be my alternative once eth goes POS

Hi guys since it is almost impossible to have amd cards for a mining rig i am left with 1060 or 1070?

Which would be a better buy? 6 1060 or 3 1070 and 1 1060 rig?

I know the hashrates but what i dont know are the power consumption of both cards. So i cant really tell which is better.
Electricity in my country costs .22usd per kwh.

Which is a better buy thanks?
