as per my knowledge https://miningchamp.com/gpus/57/Evga-GeForce-GTX-1080-Ti-hashrate is Best current gpu for Ethereum mining

no, its the best performer regarding hashrate

best in terms $/W/hs is RX580 Sapphire Nitro+

1060 3 or 6GB with Samsung mem is slightly more efficient than the RX580.



That is wrong, maximum hash rate a 1060 6Gb can achieve is 24 or 24.5 mhs at best. The maximum hash rate a RX 580 4/8GB after the bios modification can achieve is 31 mhs. After the bios mod the consumption in energy is almost identical, so the 1060 is way behind RX 580 4/8GB in term of performance and consumption.

31,5MH/s for 2 of my 570s
Zawawa has put kernels on github (he talks about in the GGS thread) for 32,5MH/s on a 480.

Wrong.  A 1060 only runs like 75-80 watts.  I have 6 card 1060 6gb rigs doing 150MH/s at 520 watts at the wall.     

My RX580's do 31MH/s at 110 watts.   The 1060 is slightly more efficient, unless you get the crappy 1060's with Hynix memory.     Talking specifically about 1060's that do 24.5-25.2MH/s with Samsung memory.

What is the best gpu currently available for Ethereum mining?

What do you mean by "best"? Simply the single GPU with the greatest possible hashrate? (What about dual-GPU cards?) The one with the best price:performance ratio? The best power:performance ratio?

Most of us would have some combination of those factors, and perhaps some more idiosyncrasies.

Best Bang for the Buck is still the AMD RX 470 - IF you can get them for a reasonable price. And that's a pretty big IF unfortunately. An Nvidia GTX 1070 is a solid performer as well - especially if you can get one with Samsung RAM.

Sorry, it is a pretty open-ended question. I was referring to graphics card, rather than just the gpu - whether its dual-gpu or not. And by best, I would refer to both efficiency and pure performance.

Best gpu is... gpu you can buy Wink
As it's almost impossible to find a correct gpu today, just buy anything you can find

Personally I go every day on second hand websites, and just buy any good AMD Graphic Card : R9 290 / RX 470 / RX 480 / RX 570 / RX 580

Good luck
