Thanks for the input. I’m leaning towards the 3060 cards. I’ve got a rig with RX 580 4GB cards that I’m going to have to swap out soon. Seems like the smart decision would be replace with 3060’s. I would likely also have to upgrade PSUs as well if I went with the 3080 cards.

rx 580 = 130 watts, 3060ti = 130 watts.

3080's if you require the density, but not everyone seems to be able to achieve the magical 100MH/s @240w and seem to settle around 90-95Mh. Where as the 3060Ti's have no problem hitting 60MH/s @120w which seems to be the clear winner if solely mining Ethhash.

yeah and gddrx 6 gets too bloody hot too, 3060ti needs to come down in price. Where i live, shops are selling for $560 ~ $700. No way In hell, I will buy in those prices. I want to buy one to play with it.

Assuming you can find these cards at MSRP, seven 3060 ti cards could cost approximately the same as four 3080 cards. What would you choose the 3060’s or the 3080’s and why?

pricing and availability are the key at this moment. Very hard to find anything at a decent price.

I did get a PowerColor 5700xt for 389. which is a bargain it is now listed for 590

Did you try Conflux Network mining or other algos ?
I believe we can get more than ethash with 3060ti.

I played with octopus a bit on nicehash

Do you think one 750W PSU could power three 3060 ti cards?

yes, could power even 4 if you make sure to undervolt it.

And what would be a good, general estimate for power consumption for the motherboard? It's a blank in my spreadsheet that I don't know that I will be able to accurately express other than a general estimate.

It seems, (again from the theoretical number crunching) that the 3060 Ti looks pretty awesome. I recognize that they are either impossible to get, or marked way the heck up right now. I'm hoping that by the time I'm ready to make the spend, that the situation is different. I just read yesterday that NVidia got a massive contract to build video cards to meet demand, so maybe this will be a different story in the coming months.

My understanding from what I've ingested here, is that I will want to put Killawatt meters on each rig, and monitor actual wall readings. I'm presently of course just working from theory and posted information about what cards do what. At the moment, I'm leaning towards a 1 year plan to build 4 rigs. So I'm crunching out spreadsheets to help me understand the math about whatever cards will end up in there.

So you guys are saying that GPU Megahertz isn't critical. Got it. I would assume that a 3 fan model will consume more power than a 2 fan model, but I don't know what numbers are being used in all the things I'm reading - a 2 fan or a 3 fan model. It would seem that since we're talking about creating an array of multiple card rigs, that we might want the best cooling options possible, what are your guys' takes on that? I see that the 3060 Ti falls into that category - 2 fan option or 3 fan option. But I'm not reading much to guide me one direction or another. Thoughts?

AMD generally dont include the power from bus/riser.

Nvidia generally includes this.

So AMD will show less power in software than at the wall.
Nvidia will show closer to actual power just doesnt include the base system power.

The power from the wall is all that really matters.

5 x 3060 ti - Simplemining shows 690 Watt (>300MHs ETH). Out of the Wall it is 730 Watt.
Have got 5 Fans running in the Case. So simplemining is accurate.

you need to check power at wall ....... like one needs for amd cards!

60 mhash at 120w is only by software readings...like a 5700 does 55 mhash at 70w by software

120w is not the whole story...so be careful with wattage gpu-z shows

Mhz do not help ETH mining. They will help other core intensive algos like KawPow.

So if you want to mine ETH ETH or other mem intensive coins... Get the one with a decent cooler and low price.

Otherwise OC models might be a better option.

General question - as I'm looking at all these different video cards - all the different models, I have questions about their sub-variants... I'll see 3 or 4 different cards of the same model, with different Mhz rates... Imagine availability wasn't a concern, would one want to get the highest Mhz option possible? I was just looking at a series that ranged from 1710 Mhz to 1800 Mhz. Is it a given that these higher Mhz cards will mine a little harder? Or is it something that could lead to more like overheating issues?

Got 2x3060Ti and 1x3080.
Had some problems to get 3080 running at 96Mhash, but 3060 was easy to get 60.5.

3060ti is better.

61 Mhs - 125 Watt and no problems with the RAM temperatur.

ETH

$750, 1 x 3080 = 240w, 100 mhs
$850, 2 x 3060ti = 270w, 124 mhs

I think they are pretty even, i guess in the end is going to be what you prefer.

Or which one you can actually find and buy (right now)
