1080Ti are very promising i have 3 1080Tis coming from newegg for a rig not sure if i will buy another one to add it to the rig the only constraint i have is that the rig has 1000watts psu even with 70% TDP i am not sure if i want to draw 4 1080ti cards on that power supply will test it out with 3 cards see what the load is like if its around 600 or so i will add 4th.


o hey! funny you say that! i had the SAME situation, here's how it went:

x4 1080ti will NOT even BOOT windows 10 , it just kills the PSU, powers off. (1000 watt G2 GOLD), i HAD to move to a bigger PSU (i put on a 1600 watt Hercules)
i was able to ADD another 1080ti once i had the 1600 watt PSU, and after tuning, it only pulls 995 watts for all 5 now
I assume it needs to pull some full draw on boot maybe?
Please let me know if you get 1000 watt PSU to boot x4 1080ti (one of mine was a zotac they are 320 TDP, more than a usual 1080ti)

Is anyone buying 1080Ti for mining only?

To me that doesn't make sense as there are cards that offer more mhs per $ invested.  I guess you are buying 1080Ti for gaming and mine when you can?

On the assumption you could get a 1080 for 450, i'd agree

But can you?

That's what I paid for my one and only 1080

i don't think you've done the math

No have not done math, but it sounds like 1080Ti mining is legit. Wow.

Wonder how Vega Rx will change the game.. I'm hearing 70 mhs from $400 cards

ya haha i think your missing some factors, as 1080ti will win if your LONG, everytime Cheesy

sure you can get better "hash per watt" but you will fill a WAREHOUSE to have the same hashpower as a 1080ti army Smiley
you will build x3 as many rigs to equal your farms capacity in hashpower if you use 1070's
you will max out your location and/or end up paying for space using 1070 over 1080ti
put THAT into your $$ calculations ;p

another factor: soloing

You CANT really solo on a 1070 rig for too long, you dont have enough hash :/  but you CAN on a 1080ti rig, i do on SIGT and have made a KILLING still today, no 1070 rigs can still solo at this point (unless 10+ cards)
my 1070 rigs mine inna pool ;p

1070's WERE king, but times change man, especially since 1070 prices are STUPID now (i paid 400USD for my 1070's brand new form newegg, they are WAY higher now)

I want to puke all over the place, sold a lot @ $.2

Did you get back in when it started giong up? If so you didn't miss much

I was salty at first too but i bit the bullet and got back in, quite happy about it

Not sure if you should do that now, but i would consider it if you're gonna be awake


i mean i sold 0.02 lol

i never buy anything back, i mine more.

You need to look up opportunity cost

Has anyone else noticed coil whine on their 1080ti more than other cards?

Yes, some algos are louder than others.

Skunk seems about middling

I'm looking to buy 1080 or 1080ti from EVGA. I really like this company. Does anybody here mine on these cards? Is the performance good vs other brands?

EVGA are nice but their upper tiers tend to not come cheap

Their black and sc2 i believe are the reasonably priced ones, on reference pcb too i think, the ftw (premium line) and maybe some newer ones i never see on sale. The FTW is the only ones i would buy beyond the founders edition

Be sure to check what power pins it takes. I bought some with 8/8's, huge mistake messed up my plans. Cost me some money and labor to fix

All comes down to money and noise IMO

Just found it on github , +20mh/s more now 😊  thanks dude !

Which one are you using?

I'm using one of Paglins and I get 48 MH/s

Did you get 20% more on top fo that, or a lower value?
