Odd thing - the Nvidia LINUX driver most recent version that supports the GTX 1070 ti is 384.something.
Gotta wonder if they were DELIBERATELY aiming this card at least in part at miners since the Windows version took so much longer to get support into it (388.13 is the FIRST for Windows with 1070 ti support).

there is no performance boost comparing to the old drives
so I think nvidia squeezed all of it and we will not see any more speed gains, sadly
another 5-10% performance boost would be highly appreciated !

eth only on claymore... shouldn't need the +200 core , right? also anyone know if any of the previous drivers work on the 1070 ti or only the most recent?
The newest driver (388.13) only for the 1070ti as the older driver wouldnt recognise it. It also works with my older 1060 6gb aswell(more reliable than the last driver).
Currently getting 32.9mh ETH with 65power, +150core, +825mem with micron memory.
I wish i have decent video cards for mining.. and gaming xD xD
so it looks like that a good overclocked GTX1070ti is a perfect choice if you are in the market for a new card!
and especially if you are choosing between GTX1070ti and GTX1080 so in that case, no doubt my choice would be GTX1070ti

Around 115w seems to be the best balance of hashrate, temperature and efficiency. Approx 4.3 sols/w on all cards (505 - 515 sols).
Remember you can really push the core clocks with these, they're all clocked low by default. My cards all do +200 core +550 mem.

3x 1070 Ti setup uses ~500 watts on the highest draw algo (at the wall).
You are running them at an inefficient operating point.
Try +200 core +700 memory at 60% TDP (106 watts) for an EFFICIENT operating point on the GTX 1070 ti, then tweek around that starting point.
Indeed. I will be doing alot of TDP testing here soon -- mainly have been working on getting as much online as possible first =)
The lowest new was $329.99 for ZOTAC 1070 Minis -- mid May this year from Newegg.
Really wish I had gotten more, hah!
Makes me wish I'd been LOOKING at NVidia cards harder that far back - though even that price had to have been a short-lived sale price.

nice test thank you
i think get 1070 in low price is better then?

The 1070 would look way better at a regular cost... the 1070s I own I paid no more than $329 for them (the majority I paid $299). But it's impossible now to get that.
I would buy them again at $329 or less.
Must be nice - I've NEVER seen 1070s in that kind of price range, I think the LOWEST I ever saw them at NEW was $369 or $379.
Are you talking new cards or used?
Made a mistake above (checked my records).
The lowest period was $319.99 for refurb EVGA 1070 full length cards -- early June this year direct from EVGA.
The lowest new was $329.99 for ZOTAC 1070 Minis -- mid May this year from Newegg.
Really wish I had gotten more, hah!

Nice work, but that's a lot of data without much explanation. Correct me if I am wrong but buying a 1060 3gb for $200 or a 1060 6Gb for $300 is pretty pointless. It will not even do ETH or get terrible speeds due to not enough memory for DAG. I am sure it will also struggle on other memory needed algos like Keccak, ect. And bottom line is Why pay $325 for a 1060 6gb when you can just pay $460 for a 1070 Ti 8Gb which will CLEARLY give you way more hash (>25% more hash and card costs 25% more)? Plus it is more future proof. The only reason the 1060 looks cheaper to run is because it is a lot slower and uses less electricity. But even if you are paying high electric rates, a 1070Ti at like 70% power is only gonna pull 100-125w and give you like double the hash of a 1060 that is pulling about 75w or so. So Please explain how a 1060 rig makes any sense?
P.S. The ONLY algo that is not 2 to 3 times slower than a 1070ti or 1080/ti is ETH on a 6gb 1060. But you could buy one 1080Ti or two 1060 6gb cards for the same price and the 1080ti will beat both of the 1060's combined in every algo except ETH, then when ETH dag need more than 6 gb the 1060 will be useless. Unless you have a ton of motherboards, psus, cpus, ect just lying around and only a little cash to buy cards, the 1060 is a horrible choice, unless all you care about is ETH for a few months.

I don't mine ETH at all anymore -- so that's off the table. I also don't buy 6GB cards anymore for this same reason (I do have some that I got before price inflation). I also only buy 1060 3GB that are $189.99-$199.99 per card.
I will include power data too soon as well to really get to the bottom of it & dig deeper.
Just keep in mind I have no agenda here -- I make nothing based on sharing my data... I am building a mining farm and I am *actually* buying hardware based on my data. I assume others may want to see it. As I collect more data I'll put it all out there =)
So I've started the power data.
4x 1060 setup uses ~425 watts on the highest draw algo (at the wall).
3x 1070 Ti setup uses ~500 watts on the highest draw algo (at the wall).
So using WhatToMine right now... let's use Xevan on BitSend for example (my systems do that Algo alot)...
GTX 1060 System = $1609.40 / Year - $259.15 (power) = $1350.25
GTX 1070Ti System = $2383.30 / Year - $306.60 (power) = $2076.70
System Cost Difference = $578.69
GTX 1070Ti Extra Profit = $726.45
Time for 1070Ti system to win in profit = 290 days
So the 1070Ti system is going to win out with power to production over time -- at least based on the figures I measured with my quick & dirty method.
So next I will need to fully tweak both setups for max production per watt and see what I come up with. For my table I simply set them all at 85% TDP with a basic 100 core / 200 memory overclock.
I plan to use / re-sell my cards on a 1-year cycle as well. So when I go to refresh I may, in fact, switch to the bigger cards in more systems.
I will convert the table into something a bit more "in depth" once I am done collecting all the data together =)
PS: Here is some data on how I build my systems:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/building-cheap-miners-my-secret-1955358
should i buy 1070ti or 1080 ? same price in my country ?
Very early conclusion. Nvidia is screwing up lately with all these new drivers, wait until they produce a good driver like in the old days and I am pretty sure the GTX 1070 ti can go over 520 sol/s easily and I expect it to reach about 35 Mhash in Ethereum. All those that canceled their pre order just because of "some test" made an error according to my opinion.
I canceled my 1070 ti pre order. No regrets at all the 1070 ti is a big let down. Getting the big mac daddy 1080 ti. "Proven" to get the most hash per dollar spent with least amount of electricity used and less overall components(risers) to get the desired hashrate.
