someone have a comparison between the 1060 3gb and the 6g version? is the 6gb version 10% faster on all algo?
Hi
I tested it, in Zcash is 8% faster the 6GB version, not worth it, i finally buy 3gb g1 versions, but they are less power efficient than the 1070, but at half the cost, they produce about 50 more two 1060 than one 1070.
so, depends on your power bill/cash availability ratio hehe
yeah i'm building another rig with 1060 this because i did a simple math with the current profitability and the 1070 is not good anymore
the difference in profit between a 1070 and a 1060 is very low now, it's around $15 per month with 0.16 cent electricity
$15 per month but you pay $200 more for the gpu, this mean 12 months roi to overcome the difference
the 1070 was good when a single one was doing $3-5 or more per day not $1.5 like now...
Exactly the reason i decide to go for 1060, at 1.5/card/day today it is very difficult to ROI with the 1070, i love that card, the power efficiency es incredible! but it costs way too much for today production returns.
right now i'm just replacing the remaining 970s i got for 1060 and waiting for VEGA 10/11 to come out with HBM2, hopefully at a good price.
about the chart posted by giagge, it is way too high from my tests:
example, at top efficiency, zcash with 1070 is 375 Sols, zcash with 1060 is 255, ethereum with 1070 is 25,8 MH, with 1060 3GB is 18,7 MH
always at top efficiency (hash/watt ratio) no-OC.
