Topic: Are 1070 TI's the next best GPU for mining? 4.7 sols per watt (Read 9258 times)

@VoskCoin, thank you a lot for all info. I've been wondering what is difference between 1070 and 1070 with same sol/w (about 3.6). Can't find such comparison though...
do you mean 1070 and 1070 ti?
I found ~.5 sols per watt and 50 sols overall performance obviously varies a lot but if I had to pick an "average"

Original post was actually 106 watts - all of my 1070 ti cards right now are set in the 104-106 range to allow the rig to hit my "6 amp draw" target.
Anywhere from 100 to 110 watts has given very similar efficiency, though 104 *seems* to be the sweet spot by a hair.
+200 +700 has stood up so far as "best" for the clock settings - higher = unstable rig, lower loses a little hashrate.
Keep in mind that my sample size is still pretty small - a few EVGA SC models and one Zotec Mini, though I DID just get a MSI Turbo card in that will be going into my next "rig rebuild" project probably tomorrow.
I have 5 Zotac 1070ti AMP editions running since thanksgiving. One of these days I will get the last 1070ti for this rig. I have my eyes on the MSI Titainium 1070ti's for my new rig.

QuintLeo,
Have you what OC settings are you running on your 1070ti rig? I am following your original posted settings of 108w/+200 core/+700 mem. I am getting 4.4 Sol/w avg. on DSTM 5.7 in SMOS.

To be picky, none of my rigs at this point are "pure" 1070 ti rigs - I've been converting existing rigs and using those cards IN ADDITION TO the small number of 1070 ti cards I've been able to get to date (just managed to sneak in an order for an ASUS blower card in on Newegg today).
(edit)
make that +200 +1400 for LINUX usage, recent testing has shown that LINUX works with "effective" clock rates on memory where Afterburner works with "base" clock rates.
Still don't have any "pure" 1070 ti rigs yet, but I'm getting closer as I work through my "reconfigure" project.

Great stuff Vosk, i'v been watching your vid for quit some time now. loved the 1050ti rig, i might build one myself since all other cards are constantly out of stock
January 12, 2018, 04:45:32 PM
Probably the same, but don't have a Strix to test with.
I would say IN THEORY it might show a hair higher if you push it to max TDP due to slightly better cooling, but can't say FOR FACT if that is the case - and if mining for efficiency the cooling isn't enough of a factor to matter on ANY of the cards I have worked with, even the Zotac Mini.

Asus Strix 1070Ti has better sol/watt than Evga 1070TI SC BE or not?

Good luck buying anything right now. You are SOL unless you have a jar of lube handy and an ebay account.
Not exactly true ... I bought six 1070ti's on the on Dec 19th for $500 each ... six more 1070ti's on Dec 26th for $500 each ... And six 1080ti's on Jan 8th for $820 each.
You just have to check with all of the big name suppliers multiple times a day ... Use notifications, because once they are out there, they are gone in less than an hour. That has been my experience on the three orders I mentioned above anyway.

Hey guys got my 1070 TI's yesterday and been messing around with them today, thanks to QuintLeo for the specs
If you're into equihash coins such as ZEC ZEN and so on, then using the 1070 TI might be the best choice for you especially if you're into low heat + high efficiency builds + this also means they're quiet . . anyway I'm happy with them!

I just started watching your Youtube videos. They are very informative and I'm learning a lot. Thanks.

Hmm, prices being as they are how much more should you have to pay for 1070 Ti vs 1070 for it being worth it?
January 11, 2018, 11:00:53 AM
well, I have both and geforce 1080ti and geforce 1070 - and I can say that 1070ti is a decent card for the money it costed
but its big brother is better in some algos, but if your plan is to mine dagger-hashimoto and equihash - then gtx 1070ti the best for you, take it!

Just my Opinion but I still prefer 1080tis over 1070tis , Cause I prefer density over everything
Anyways with the Next generation coming anytime soon it is to hasty to buy any card right now
But Yeah I am pretty Impressed with The efficency on this one , Nvidia sure knows how to make the best gpus
If We could only do custom straps for nvidia it would have been unbeatable.

Doesn't SMOS use EBWF not DSTM?
little late but dstm 5.7 is also now supported on smOS which is running stable w/ my 12 cards!
January 11, 2018, 09:22:56 AM
Gotta love my 1070 ti!
wish I could get more T_T January 11, 2018, 09:22:39 AM
Thank you for this post. I want to buy a mining rig and I think I am decided now which gpu to buy. Happy New Year! Continue the work.
happy new years my friend and good luck! January 05, 2018, 09:34:11 AM
Zotac 1070 ti mini should get close to 500 or a hair over at 70% TDP (124 watts), and they should be able to stay fairly cool at that power level - same as the EVGA SC 1070 ti but will run a couple of degrees warmer due to the inferior cooling setup.
Hello QuintLeo,
Thanks for the information! Here in Brazil all cards are too expensive. 1080 Ti costs over 1100 USD
I will try this Zotac with 2 years Warranty.
Cheers Mate!
