Topic: 1080Ti Specific - Best mining option - page 253. (Read 409658 times)

I, apologize. 1070 = 570 lowest
1080ti = 980= lowest

However, dual 1070 = 1140 -980=160$  and you are chugging out more coins. So $160 premium

This is all in CAD

Just cards.

For example I have this


I have these slots.


Slot 1: PCI-Express x16 Gen 3i
Slot 2: PCI-Express x4 Gen 2
Slot 3: PCI-Express x16 Gen 3i
Slot 4: PCI-Express x1 Gen 2
Slot 5: PCI-Express x16 Gen 3i

and 1500 watt PSU

that's my gaming PC and I'm looking to upgrade -currently I only have single 1080ti - now -I'm thinking should I get Dual 1070 or single 1080ti because it'll cost about the same.


Another thing is- we have forgotten that this thread was about Best "coin" to mine- as in, to use full potential of our card. Not coin that would make us x dollars and so forth. That's a complex process- just two months back i was earning $10 and now $3 , however, the speeds are still the same. It's unfortunate that there was such a drastic crash but that's where the "investor" and "trader" mentality comes in place.

Once has an option to utilize card fully and accumulate coin of their choice and second option is changing them everyday and cashing out- which went from $10 down to $3-4-  third option is -only accumulating BTC .
Obviously, you are your own master but my theory is- since card gives very good Zec/Skein - I should just stick with them and mine them wait for and up trend and then sell. I could be totally wrong and it could all fail but so could BTC and it could also go up by 10-20 fold.

That's my 2 cents. That's why I was looking for cards that would at the very least give good ROI.

You calculated 1k $ per 1080ti but 330-420$ per 1070? Where can i get them, will buy 6 at least

You are forgot of PSU and other details such CPU, M/b and Ram. Did you calculate all?

You are comparing 1 with 10 ? I don't get it.

I posted the numbers up.

6 x 1080ti = 6k
12x1070= $4-5k

However, you'll be getting more speed out of 12x1070 setup. That's what I was suggesting and plus- you save 1k as well as on power. Since 1070= 180w and 1080ti = 250 watts.

In my experience for most algos except ETH you can use this forumula --> 10x1070 equals 6x1080Ti

For example:
skein -
1x1070 - 585Mhs
6x1080Ti 5900Mhs

skunk -
1x1070 - 29Mhs
6x1080Ti 300Mhs

lbry
1x1070 - 315Mhs
6x1080Ti 3000Mhs


I prefer my 1080Ti setup

Signatum is the riskiest bet right now imo. The last flash dump was very suspicious. I'm holding some but I stopped mining, the difficulty is not great right now.

Don't use the 64bit build. The 32 bit build with -I 25.6 is faster

Sp, can you explain why in mod#8 64bit  miner crashes with -i 26 after some time? Seems that -i 25.5 works fine, but at earlier versions all was normal at -i 26. 

thank you very much, will look for that miner asap

The popular and profitable signatum sp-mod kernel has been released in version #8 (0.05 btc subscription miner)

About $5 per card...

I`d be not wasting time on Zcash. With right miner you can get over 106mh with Sigt (Signatum). At current diff and prices est. 9.6usd. http://nullspam.ru/nodes/signatum/ - put your mh/s there and you`ll see. Miner`s - alexis78 v1.0, krnlx, palginmod - is free.

I'm using alexis-1.1 palginmod. Don't have a link for it but im sure google knows:)

I've noticed that the pool sometimes shows lower mh/s as well...What was your earnings per card?

Still waiting for order to be delivered, but from what I saw, Zotac hashes (lets take Skunk as example) at around 49-50.5H(dont know if it was OC or not), Asus at 50-51.5mh, and MSI at 52.5mh (OC).
It's a bit of difference, but Zotac give 5 year warranty, Asus are kids FTW, and I've got MSI's on board, so thats why  i ordered another
For all mining skein - You can lower your memory clocks - You'll save energy/enable more juice to core, and got better efficiency (~4.6MH/W). Skein isn't memory hard algo, and 1080ti keeps memory clocks high even with downclocking.

Can you please give a link to the miner.
I used alexis vs ~1000mh per 1080 ti and 50% of time it worked normally.Now it shows same 7000mh per 7 cards rig,but on the pool side its 3.700 only.

After 24 hours of mining skein and nist5 algo auto converting to BTC I can report that each card making around $6 a day.

75% TDP

+120 core

Your miner is set to mine SIGT, pool receives shares for SIGT, you get paid SIGT in the background, pool bot continuously moves your earnings (let's say accumulated earnings every 15min) to supported exchange, automatically sell SIGT/buy BTC and nominate transacted BTC to your account. Now the SIGT/BTC rate for that particular transaction may not be the most favourable. I assume this is what you were asking...
What has been pointed out is you accumulate SIGT, then move SIGT to exchange and make the transaction yourself when candle chart has some nice green bars in the higher ranges. Though, writing about it is always easier than applying the theory in real situations.

What do you mean by autotrading?  Like the giant multipools that automatically convert what you mine to btc?
