Hi ,

i mine with EWBF's CUDA Miner. Now i want to buy two rigs.
1. Rig:
4x 11GB Palit GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders
1x1200Watt Power
1x Z97 Board
1x 4 GB RAM
1x SSD 60GB
1x Intel Clereon G1840
2.Rig:
6x 8GB Gainward GeForce GTX 1070 Aktiv PCIe 3.0
1x1200Watt Power
1x Z97 Board
1x 4 GB RAM
1x SSD 60GB
1x Intel Clereon G1840
.
The Question:
How can i Overclock them ?
How much MHZ Coreclock and Memory Clock
Can i config the miner to get more SOL/S

Thx for help.

nvidia is very easy to overclock, you need to use msi afterburner and move the slide bar to the left, not too much or you will get crash and damage the gpu in case of memory OC, my oc are +150 core max 200, and max 400-600 on mem, but it depend on the model

2. Rig

6x11GB EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti SC Black or 6xZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080TI AMP 11GB GDDR5X 352 bit VRReady ??
1x KINGSTON 8GB 2400MHz DDR4 Non-ECC CL17
1x ZOTAC SSD T400 series 120GB
1x Intel G3900
1x Prime Z270P
I want tweaking to get 150Watt --> 600 Sol/s
Which PSU is the best ?

My Gigabyte 1070 G1 give best zec, easy oc +150core +300mem, 470+ sol/s

470? i don't think it's possible with a 1070

Thx a lot.
I decided to buy

2x1200 Watt be quiet! Dark Power Pro 11 Modular 80+ Platinum
10x8GB MSI GeForce GTX 1070 Armor 8G OC Edition Aktiv PCIe 3.0 x16 (Retail)
2xAsus Prime Z270-P Intel Z270 So.1151 Dual Channel DDR ATX Retail
2xIntel Celeron G3900 2x 2.80GHz So.1151 BOX
4x4GB Kingston ValueRAM KVR24N17S8/4 DDR4-2400 DIMM CL17 Single
2x11GB Palit GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition Aktiv PCIe 3.0 x16 (Retail)
2x 60GB SSD

better ideas?
Its my cash limit
Somebody got overclocking ideas?
Or config the EWBF Miner?

Linux or Windows or other OS?

I am still mixed on the 1080ti's I guess they will hold their value better but it seems like a risky move to me.

I remembered someone in the forum mentioned earlier the MSI Armor series were not very great in cooling, that's probably why they are always the least expensive non-blower type cards on the market. I also don't recommend old EVGA SC/FTW, I burned one not long ago (known VRAM overheating issue). Within your budget, just try to find cooler cards. OC is just simple and most 1070 can reach 2G core, also you can find $5 windows 10 on ebay.

I am using a MSI z170 m5, since the riser is still on the way, I put three cards directly onboard. I could only get 2X1080Ti + 1 X 1070 working, but not 3 X 1080 Ti. I will update once I get the risers.

I have read that GTX 1080 Ti setups require more then 4GB of RAM to be stable mining. I'm not sure if that applies to setups with more then 4 GPUs or not. If your undervolt and tweak your settings enough you can get somewhere around 600 sols @ 150 watts, supposedly.....

I have two 1070 and six 1080 Ti. 1070 has better $/hash for sure, but you may just need 1 extra month to ROI and 1080 Ti will hold resell value better before next generation GPU launches.

Also some real hash # I can share here:

1) EVGA 1070 FTW 480 hash (core > 2G, samsung memory 9G, which is probably the highest frequency most 1070 can reach)
2) EVGA 1070 SC 460~480 (core close to 2G, micro memory 8.8G)
3) 1080 Ti FE 660 (quiet and cool at 75% TDP limit, a little OC), or 700 (fan 75%, 70C, a little loud in office/bedroom environment, TDP 90%, a little OC).

If you get aftermarket 1080 Ti, it should be much easier to push it above 700 while keep it quiet/cool. Most important thing for 1080 Ti will be cooling. I can shortly get 760 with my 1080 FE, so you can expect 700~760 for AIB card. Gigabyte Aorus seems to be the best 1080 Ti right now, I purchased the FE only because I get good deal for it.

Also remember Gigabyte may warranty you from the manufacture data of the card (at least here in NA), good luck to get some fresher 1070 then.

Hope this will help.

1070 is better $/hash , i was going to build a 1070 rig too for zec and found it's the best $/hash i will just go with the cheapest i think it's the gigabyte version poor cooling but cheap prices at the end i look for the roi.

Should i buy 2 rigs of gtx 1070? what is the best $/hash Card?

Why did you pick the cards you picked? You should do some homework first and then conclude what cards too pick.
