Returns are affected as I am receiving lower reward but the consumption is the same so far. Even the temperatures are the same but this could be to weather becoming cooler and colder each day. I wonder if this algorithm will be optimized with the time passing by ?
The algorithm is being intentionally de-optimized, to avoid ASICs.

I also observed worsened speed on different video cards by 10-20 percent. This is normal because more complex functions are used in this algorithm. Nevertheless, this is better than it was with dominance of ASICs.

The new algorithm changes introduce several steps that aren't efficiently processed - you will either see a reduction in hashrate, an increase in your power usage & thermal output, or both. This is completely normal and expected - all miners are subject to the same changes, so despite having a lower hashrate, returns shouldn't really be affected.
As we all know the Monero developers did fork again and I was mining the cryptonight v7 algorithm with 520 h/s for a single Nvidia but now with cryptonightv8 algorithm one card is doing 340 h/s most of the time and some times it spikes to 480.
The settings and overclock are the same on both algorithms, I guess this is normal but just wanted to confirm wih other persons here ?
