amd are stuck with ETH nvidia have many option now, i think it's good to buy a 1070 now, they ar enot that expensive anymore, and with second hands you can find them for $300, which isa great deal

How is Nvidia's performance with claymore's dual miner ?

All my existing cards are AMD, but I'm ready to give Nvidia a try, if people recommend.

Thank you

I've sold some of my bitcoin and want to "re-invest" it into some new mining gear - plus I miss my mining days, what fun right.

I want to build one or two new setups, I want to mine ETH and Zcash (or whatever you recommend), overall what do you recommend card wise:

AMD RX ?

NVidia ?

Does your recommendation change if you factor in the cost of electricity?

(please note: I've search for this as well, but you know how the search, it pulls up 1000s of messages, many from 2011 onward - so thanks to all who reply).
