SPMOD LBRY is giving me 300MH/s. You guys and your super tight. TDPs aren't going to get normal hashing numbers. It still surprises me some of you don't associate turning down the TDP with performance. Equihash is a niche case, you can't strangle the GPU for other algos normally.
a 1070 is currently making $1 a day net, cost is included, this is 1 year roi without resale, resale is still very high on these gpu, 80% guaranteed
it's better than leaving your bitcoin doing nothing, this unless bitcoin go much higher after your purchase, that would be a bad luck
actually roi is always far less than the inestement of the gpu, even in the worst case you are still looking at 50% resale value, this mean that roi is 6 months in reality
i've always sold back my gpu without problem on private forum, gamers love used big gpu, i don't care about roi, because i switch immediately to the new gen cards which are more efficency, i never stay forever with the same gpu
Resale only matters at the end of the life of the GPU. I still have some 970s because they're still profitable. Even though they have good 'resale', they aren't worth anywhere close to what they use to be worth and it pays for me to keep them over selling them off.
ROI matters to everyone. That's the time at which you start earning money back on your investment. That doesn't change even with resale value.
So in 2-3 years when Nvidia releases then 2070 that replaces the 1070, you'll sell them off as you say, but you've still reached ROI and you still sell them for much less then they're worth right now. If you never reach ROI (because you don't care as you say) then you've never made any money and basically mining is pointless.
Yeah, yeah... I'm sure you've sold them in a backroom somewhere for 400% their initial value, that STILL doesn't matter. That's not the way businesses work. You can't have a constant stock that doesn't earn you money. That doesn't even make sense. Resale is just for recouping part of your costs. It's not something you do constantly.

You should know by now that mainstream coins rarely ever pay the most.
We've had this discussion... Matter of a fact that's where my SIB rage came from, however, there is only so many coins that can support more then a handful of people or GPUs.
i mainly resale to switch to a better gpu and better efficiency, it doesn't make sense to me to keep mining with the same gpu when or if roi is reached
you can believe what you want but i've always sold them easily for at least 50-80%, with second hand stuff it's even better
if in your example nvidia release the 2070 after 1-2 year(usually this is the time frame not 2-3 years), i would sell the 1070 for 50-80%, like i did with the 970 after i bought them in 2014 and easily managed to sold them for 50% at least after two years, plus roi would be already done
and if it isn't done, with 50% of the value back you still managed to return all the money back(unless you're telling me that a gpu can't reach 50% of its roi in 1-2 years which is false), and in fact i didn't lose anything in any investment i did in crypto, actually i made money
