which one is better to mine? The 1080Ti, Vega -Cryptonight monsters- or the standard 1080? I have experience with Vega 56 cards because of a rig I built -it isnt mine though-. I want to buy a new rig, for personal use, and I'm doubtful about which one could be better for mining, if Vega or one of the GTX 1080Ti or 1080 models.

1080Ti (too much for my crippled pocket but I could try), Vega or the regular 1080... Which one would you recommend? I am more inclined to buy the regular GTX 1080, because of price, but well, any suggestions are welcome.

Wow that difficulty continues to climb fast for XZC.  Everyone and their dog is apparently jumping on that ship.


funny, me and my friends all stopped mining it, some of us also dumped it.

It may continue to rise, I dont care, I never liked that project. Mining it with a 1080Ti was the only good part and now its over.

they have like the best secure and the most private protocol, more than zcash or monero... I bet its better to mine more profitable coins but i think that project is one of the best in the comunity

nope. Not even close. Not sure where you get those infos but you should reconsider your source. It is a mediocre coin at best. And those silly fees for the devs, ridiculous...

And ur arguments are....?

... as good as your arguments.

Did they finally removed the trusted setup ??

so what i can i mine with my 12x 1080 ti ?

 Grin Grin either '12' or 'what i can mine' does not fit in the same statement.

 A general comment. There is no need to ask every minute here, or run any calculator, to know the hottest coin of last second/minute/day, just go to a pool and look at the algo with more miners, there  is the best paying algo/coin. To know the best coin of the past is extremely easy.

As far as the privacy currencies go I'm not sure what else you would mine with a 1080ti right now.  ZCL?  About the same income.  Zcash even worse.

ZCL may be a better one to hold and have more merit vs. XZC in the long term.  I don't know.  I don't claim to be an expert.  Wink

ZCL was just  pumped x25, so IMHO it's time to sell, but not to hold, there are lots of other Z coins that wasn't pumped recently, I'm better will hodl them.

Anyone mining stable Zero on Windows? OptiminerZero just keeps closing out, pausing then says click any key to continue, when I do it' just closes the bat.

gave up on Nvidia not possible for me to have it stable, but rocks on AMD R9/RX 8GB, needs ~8gb virtual ram per gpu, but the coin self is a pain to mine, only suprnova useable, needs 720 confirmations until it's fine ... "long" ago I tried it and now all jumping on it.
don't waste your time, imo,
1) It is possible. Couple of weeks ago it was possible on amd or in linux only.
2) It was possible to mine with 1GPU in windows
3) Now it is possible to mine with windows rig of 4*GPU on 4 threaded CPU. Or 8*GPU on 8threaded CPU.
But yes - don't waste your time.  Grin

I disagree.  I've been trying to mine with 4 nvidia cards in linux and the damn program will  stop for the simplest of reasons, like a rejected share.  Maybe its great on linux but on Windows this miner is the biggest piece of garbage ever.  Mind blowing that there is a dev fee involved
I wasn't saing it is good or doesn't crash from time to time. But it became possible to mine ZERO 16 days before pump (windows nvidia rigs)
4*1070 of mining these 16days made me 2000$

mine something more profitable and then buy XZC if its what you want. Same old stories.
Sound advice sir no doubt about that.

Issue for the "casual" participant like myself is the time needed to constantly switch algos, miners, pools, etc. in order to stay on top of things.  For those with the time and the motivation - good for them.  As for myself I don't mind switching occasionally but not on a daily or weekly basis.

Of course once you've gotten yourself set up with the different clients, settings, etc.. a lot of that work is out of the way and it gets easier to swap around.  Wish I could afford to stay home and do this all day.   Grin

Im planning to invest in buying 4 1080ti. What tactics you should recommend - start it with nicehash and then monitor trashcoins that are good in the beginnig?

Also please tell me if anybody uses this card with HiveOS?


Lol god no, stay away from NiceHash. More earnings elsewhere with a lower payout.

so what i can i mine with my 12x 1080 ti ?

if you have the time, pick your own coins and switch manually when necessary, either hold or sell them by yourself on your favorite exchange.

Need an advice

Do my corsair rm1000x can handle 3x 1080ti?

I am running 3 1080tis on my Evga 1000w ps with no problems. With the kill-a-Watt meter and 100% power to the GPUs it reads ~700w at the wall. 70% power and GPU men set to +266 it reads ~665w at the wall.
Power draw jumps 25-50w if I do other activities on the computer while I mine. Seems to be plenty of head room to use 3 1080ti GPUs and 1000w PS.
