hey guys , i can tell you that over 500 sol on a gtx 1070 Zotac mini i have reached yesterday, i think i saw yesterday on my card 525 sol by core clock 195 and and memory at 602. on full Power mode 112 % no problem you can reach 500 sol easy :-)

consumption is probably 180watt with that oc, not worth it

Has anyone experienced Micron memory failure to mine?
I have a single 1070 that doesn't mine when in stock values, have to lower gpu/mem to make it mine. I have installed latest MSI Armor OC 8GB vbios fix but still no luck...

Sadly the MSI armor serie has a very bad reputation saw alot of post of people complaining about performance Sad

500 H/s from single graphic card hitted!

Looking for that for a while.

Anyway Claymore has updated his miner, up to 6-8%. In fact it's time to update EWBF.
Our cards are  already faster than AMD at less power, but I'll always take more speed
- improved speed for most cards, up to 8% (depends on card model). About 340H/s on stock 390X, 255H/s on stock RX480, 320H/Fury x on stock Nano.

seems that the 1060 is the new king here, $200 for 300 sol at 70watt, not even the 1070 is better

I do 400 @ 92w but the price is half, so yeah pretty much what you say, king Smiley

not sure anymore, it seems only the 6gb can do 300 sol, reports from users are not very clear, it depend on the model i guess, and the wattage is unknown

but the 6GB don't cost half of a 1070, more like 1/3 less

Yeah it depend on the model, if i take the EVGA roughtly the price is 199€ for 1060 3GB - 250€ for 1060 6GB - 499€ for 1070 but that's the price we have here gonna be different for everyone of course.

I'll have a closer look @ this, for faster ROI 1060 could be interesting, but overall the 1070 is still the best when you think longevity i think Smiley

at 499 definitely it's still better to go with the 6gb version of the 1060, but i have the 1070 at 420 euro here

the ftw 1070 ? yeah that's about the price i got them a few months ago, i sooooo should have bought more only for resale lol, especially because they were bundled with 2 games too, that i sold for 50€ per card Smiley made them very cheap !'

I would be interested to hear what the latest version give for 1060 users on the 3GB and 6GB version @ different TDPs. This card price could make things really interesting for zcash at least Smiley

cheers.

My gtx 1070 EWBF 0.1.0b :

Power Limit : 50%
GPU clock: +150
MEM clock: +550

385 sol for 95 watt ( price 420 € in my country )

Nvidia much better than Amd

.

You should try 60% TDP and 150/600, it's the sweet spot for profitability (earn me 5% more than @50% tdp)

This depends entirely on the card and how they rate their TDPs. A TDP for one make and model isn't the same for another. You wont get the same results unless it's exactly the same make and model, even then they have different voltages so it's not guaranteed.

You are absolutely correct. I have different models from the same manufacturer and differences in consumption is soaring. EVGA FTW ACX 3.0 1070 GTX consumes 50 W more than EVGA ACX 3.0 SC 1070 GTX on the same power limit (I do not remember exactly whether the 100% or 112% power and I think was measured for Lbry, but I'm not sure to I remember well). I measured with an instrument "energy meter" in the socket in the wall.

Hi, I'm having a weird issue with my memory clock while using this miner.
I have a GTX 970 G1 gaming and when i use this miner, the memory clock gets stuck to 3004Mhz in Afterburner (P2 State) and stays there, but when i quit the miner it goes up to 3500Mhz where its supposed to be.

Overclocking does nothing, i can't even underclock when running the miner(i don't use other miners). Also while gaming or running benchmarks it works fine and goes to P0 state instantly like its supposed to.
What could be causing this? Tomorrow i'll try and install Windows 10 fresh onto a partition to see if that helps.

if the 1060 does 300 sol at 87 watt it's not better than a 1070 that can reach 400 sol at 100watt

if it was the 3GB version that i would say it is better because of the price but the 6gb is expensive

My 1070's does 365 Sol/s at 90W (no OC) so yes, you probably right about it, 1070 is still better  Grin

I don't have a 3GB version to test, but i will never buy one anyway, because in a year from now it would be very difficult to sell, because nobody will want a 3GB card anymore, even the GTX 970 G1 Gaming which is a fantastic gpu, is difficult to sell well nowadays because of the memory.

if i can get my hands on one i will do the tests and report.

this is my exact reason why i ignored the 3gb version, for resale value

also it's on the way the new pascal refresh, 2070 and 2080 model they are faster than current one but same price, another reason not to have a dead card that cannot be resold

but the 6GB don't cost half of a 1070, more like 1/3 less

Maybe I can clear it up a little (too bad i didn't film it when i did the tests yesterday)
Rig used: AM1M-S2H with APU 5350, PSU sentey 80 Plus (superflower desing) 850W, bronce-gold efficiency, no HDD (flashdrive) linux 1404

Power: 18W
with card Gigabyte GTX 1060 (6GB) G1 Gaming Version 1 (and no, it does not whine at all hehe), At 80W TPL,  runing EWBF 010b, 98% utilization
Power: 105W  (so 105 - 18 = 87W)

measured at the wall with two meters, a direct type (industrial panel meter trueRMS, that gets W, VA, A, V) and with a top of the line appa trueRMS  clamp meter same measure exactly).

the card is extremely efficient, i think it's better in terms of efficiency compared to GTX 1070 but, at least here in my country, the price doesn't make sense.

Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 Gaming costs here: 675 US Dollars
Gigabyte GTX 1060 G1 Gaming (6GB version) costs here: 506 US dollars

so, because of the price here 1070 is better, but looking at international prices, it would be better 1060 i think.

i can do tests with same rig with 1070's and 970s if anyone's interested on that data.
i have those test equipments because it's what i do for a living (power electronics)  Grin

if the 1060 does 300 sol at 87 watt it's not better than a 1070 that can reach 400 sol at 100watt

305 sol/s with gtx 970 Shocked. At least for gtx 970 ewbf 0.1.0b miner is faster than eqm 1.0.4c.
at what target power level?.

GTX 970, specially if you have the G1 Gaming version is an overclocking beast, but at top power you will need a nuclear reactor to feed it hehe   Grin Grin

are you sure about getting 9only 262 sol? another guy reported 300 sol

100% sure, keep in mind that windows users report target power limit as a percentage, but linux users report target power limit as Watts, he's saying  target power limit 70, maybe it's 70% which is a huge difference.

and he is overclocking the card, i'm not, i always use at stock speeds.

also he may be getting more because of windows drivers, i am using 367.44 driver which is pretty old but play very well with the GTX 1070s which are what i use here, maybe newer drivers perform better for 1060s.

What is the hash rate on gtx 1060 3G on last version? Does it affect on speed 3G and 6G card version?

I just tested a (borrowed) Gigabyte GTX 1060 G1 Gaming 6GB version 1 (no coil whine btw)

at 80W TPL i get 262 Sol/s Stock (no OC)
at 90W TPL i get 248 Sol/s Stock (WTF?? more power consumption less hashrate? ,crazy!)

i cannot test below 80W TPL because my driver is a little old, but i wouldn't be surprise that at 70W TPL the card will perform better and hash more Grin

What i didn't like it's the temperature, 64 C (core) at 80W TPL, WHAT??, My GTX 1070 G1 Gaming barely gets over 57 C at 90W TPL.
Also the backplane is so hot that you can barely touch it.

I don't have a 3GB version but it should be 10% less hashrate, not less. (because of less cuda cores).

Test done on Lubuntu 1404, Cuda 8, driver 367.44.

are you sure about getting 9only 262 sol? another guy reported 300 sol

good job:

1070 +100 core , power limit. 70 = 430ish
1060 6g +100 core , power limit 70 = stable 300
1080 +100 core = stable 530

950 +51 core, +195 mem, PL 80 = 136sol's
1060 3GB +185 core, +350 mem, PL 80 = 268-273
