 I'll believe that claim if I see it. There is no way they could DOUBLE the performance of a GTX 1080 on ETH while leaving it on GDDR 5x (excessive latency issues), and even if they moved it to GDDR 5 (not X) I doubt they could get it to 50 even with super-upgraded memory timings.

 On the other hand, I've seen 30% power savings quoted for the GP104-100 - THAT seems possible, especially if they "factory undervolt" it at all compared to existing GTX 1080 cards.

there is a GTX 1080 "GP-104-100" 60Mhs ETH

I manage to get the Windows-to-Go on a USB3 32GB Sandisk Cruiser.... and surprisingly this guy boots up fast in every brand of motherboard I have.

Occasionally, W10 complains about low disk space but I manage to keep the thumdrive lean after installing TightVNC, Google Drive, Claymore and EWBF

Anybody knows if I can remove the other stuff Windows have like, Paint, Media Player, Mail, Photo Viewer --- SEE BELOW etc?

Anyone checked out equidash mining on zpool mining HUSH? Looks really profitable just trying to work out the best miner and how to get it going.  Think I have got it going with EWBF but it was only using 40% of my GPU need to figure out what I did wrong.

not to forget about 16gb virtual drive requirement for Claymore running multi GPU, a ultra fast 64gb will be minimum..... 64gb usb3 will be expensive to deploy VS a 120gb Kingston SSD or a simple 64gb SSD.

Thanks for sharing. With my limited knowledge, I changed things around for my ewbf miner but it keeps restarting when it is working well. I think it is because of this argument "if($global:count -gt 5)". What does that exactly imply?

Go to Asus website and download the drivers and put it on the same USB drive you have the Windows ISO, should work.  Google ASUS clean install with no 3.0 usb support, I am sure it will come up.

I like the idea of a mining edition GPU, but honestly i dont see it being worth it for us... because the price they quoted was only $20 less than the standard 1060 card and the mining cards only come with 3 month warranty on parts ONLY, labor and shipping not included.... then there was the info that you can only purchase them in quantities of 20 at a time for some reason... so you have to buy 20 and build 4 x 5 card rigs or have odd extra's....

If it's a fresh install where did you put the driver?

I am guessing vyper got lucky and had a 2.0 on his board and plugging it into that one worked..
Tried all my usb ports and no go.. err checked ASUS all usb are 3.0...

The usb dvd is 2.0 and so is the stick...
What is the work around for the Asus z270 AR?

had that issue with my MB when did a clean install (Gigabyte GA270P-D3) when trying to to install Windows 7 Ultimate x64 bit.....the ISO does not support USB 3.0 so it wouldn't be able to read somehow the USB correctly.

Had to go to Gigabyte's website and download a driver to install on the USB stick that let it run the install correctly.

Good luck!

Reading what the previous poster said this is def the issue.  Hopefully your motherboard has some non usb 3.0 ports.  Or you could use windows 10 instead.  Your windows 7 key will likely work for win10. I installed win10 yesterday on my win 7 key for two machines.

Can anyone help with a quick OS problem?
I've never seen this in my dozens of time trying to install a Windows OS, especially Win 7..

I made a bootable thumb drive from a an ISO that a reputable Key seller on ebay provided (one Phil recommednded) as I can't find my disk and I go to install and I get to s screen that says select a driver, typically where you select x86 or x64 and it says no device driver found? I tried mounting the iso a few more times and reformating the thumb, nothing..

Phil was kind enough to send me a Win 7 CD, I buy an external CD drive and I get the same error..
I even plug in another SSD that doesn't have an OS (other SSD had Server 2012 on it), and that doesn't work..
Can anyone help me as I have never seen this issue before..

Funny thing was.. when I was on Server 2012, that system booted up, I was only reformating it as I couldn't get the LAN drivers to work and needed internet..

Storx it would be really helpful if when you made comments you could include some detail as you have made several comments and left out all the detail.

You claimed to make $17 per day on Skein and Blake.  Then corrected your skein.  But not your blake2s. So I can only assume those figures were wrong also.

I was able to guess you were mining blake2s not blake2b or something else??? I guessed maybe 2s??.  I got around 2700 Hash on CC miner doing Blake2s algo.  This was on a 1080 Ti Aorus and a handful of tweaking.  That came back as around $4.50 a day or less.  So yer I am not really sure whats going on in your screenshots.  

Some updates for anyone else.   Skein is still the most profitable.  

Here is what I make per day as of right now for one 1080 ti before power and fees.  All my cards are around 75-90 tpd because my power is cheap I can push my skien TPD slightly higher.  I have tweaked the clocks and cores.

Skein = $10.85  (alexisminer) 1000 Hash
Zec = $9.49   (EWBF 3.03b?) 720
Eth = $7.03   ( Claymore or Genoil) 37 (if claymore can mine a little sia for 370 so this bumps it up a little also)

Zec is looking really good right now.  And Skein has really dropped off lately but I have not seen it be less profitable than zec yet.

Anyone else mining any other algos or coins and have similar or better results?  If so please share
