Don't you fear the new AMD Vega chip ?

It's about to come out... I fear they will make the price go down hard on NVidia

I have used the Nvidia for 20-25 days.

I earned 1300 maybe 1400 I spent 377 in power for my entire house power.

So I am about 1000 earned.

I have 25 days of winter power.

So I may earn 1000 more so that is 2000 in earnings I spent 6400 on all the Nvidia cards.

I returned 1. For. 230 refund so the Nvidia cost 6170

Since I sold Amd cards that were roi'd . Counting the resale I made about 1100 on them so the cost of the Nvidia were about 5000 .. If I end up earning 2000 like I mention above the cards need to be worth 3000 on June 1. That would be a fifty percent drop. I think they will not price drop to that level.

This is when early adoption makes sense.
I will be on hold for expansion . At this time I have room for vega if they are good.

Yeah I think i will be waiting before I throw more cash into GPU

'The right to privacy matters'

here are the two mobos left to right
three cards on each six card total

4 cards on one psu two cards on the other psu

as a complete aside here is an aorus 1080 ti and a msi 1070

note slot 1 is open I plan to fit the single slot galax 1070 slim in slot 1 it should run easy and cool next to the msi 1070

look at width of that aorus far right.

yeah in theory you can do 4 1080 ti's pull 776 watts.

I just have been sick and busy and did this lazy I have 2 three card builds they both have three cards.

one psu is an evga 750 p2 it does a mobo and 2 cards

pne psu is a rosewill tokamak 100 watts it does a mobo with 3 cards and 1 card from the other mobo using a riser.

You should be able to do 6x 1080ti with a powerlimit of 180 at the wall (with most models this is a linux powerlimit of 200 ) using an evga 1300 g2. ( but you will need splitters or 2x 8pin pcie cables from another EVGA.)

OC cc +150 mc +900 powerlimit 200 on all cards and a manual fan speed of at least 65% ( 75% or higher is probably better)

should produce 4000+ sol/s and use 1150 watts at the wall.

'The right to privacy matters'

Yeah and 2499/776 watts at worst = 3.22 sols per watt at the wall

or 2506/ 750 = at best = 3.34 sols per watt at the wall

Now I am gentle on the psu it is a titanium rated for 1500 watts I am doing 776 watts this maxes efficiency.

I am gentle on the cards all are about 65-70% tdp settings

So you get 1857 + 642 = 2499 sols using 776 at the wall at worst

or 1857 + 649 = 2506 sols using 776 at the wall at best ?

Plus you say your other meter is at 750 watts same setup.

this is the mobo that has 2 msi plugged in note they do 649 and 642 h and they are 59c and 62 c one of them is one the tokamak psu

this is the three card mobo all founders cards all three are on the rosewill psu with the meter at 776 watts note they all do about 619 sols

so the 776 watts is possible with 1 mobo and 4 1080 i's

correct?

yes

Almost pulled the trigger on 2 of this

https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125955

But ... I like MSI a lost.

https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137104

But is this one of the good model you were talking ?

https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125954

... more gear please Roll Eyes

the aorus gives me the best numbers but it is 3 slots well 2 ¾ slots wide.

all the founder editions seem to be the same.

I have 3 zotac and 1 pny founders
I have 1 more zotac founder coming

Here are some good msi better then my founders I have 2.

http://www.provantage.com/msi-gtx1080tiaero11goc~7MSTI0M9.htm

you can get them cheap in newegg canada

https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137115

they seem to be the lowest priced ones on newegg ca

https://www.newegg.ca/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007708%208000&IsNodeId=1&Description=1080%20Ti&bop=And&Order=PRICE&PageSize=36

they do better then the founders.

here is a few shots of 1080 ti's
4 cards the
power at wall = 776 watts on a hot meter other meters would show 750 watts
that meter shows 1 mobo and 4 cards below note the msi is on a riser and is powered by that same psu but runs off the mobo on the right.

The MSI looks like a good deal ... just wondering if the single fan is enough for mining.

For me the best bangs for the bucks has always been rx470 4gb : often cheap , with often discount available. Stable , not power angry. Good hashrate.

I have a spare mobo and PSU not used. Could build one more 4 to 7 GPUs Rigs.
What would you suggest guys as Zec/Nvidia build ? with most revenue per buck invested.

A good question. card price is king.

if you get a 1060 6gb to do 320h and you spent 220 usd you spent 1 dollar for 1.45h

if you get 1070 8gb to do 420h and you paid 375usd you spent 1 dollar for 1.12h

if you get a 1080 8gb to do 500h and you spent 450 usd you spent 1dollar for 1.11h

if you get a 1080ti 11gb to do 700h and you spent 615 usd spent 1 dollar for 1.13h

I got this 1080ti below for a good price

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XDN4TXK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?

I got one for 669 free ship 0 tax
I got one for 675 free ship 0 tax
I got one for 615 free ship 0 tax

they work well enough

I got this 1060 for 220

https://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-GeForce-ZT-P10600A-10L-Compact-Graphics/dp/B01IDCOOIU/ref=sr_1_2?

at the price of 220 it was a good deal .

l decide to go all 1080 ti as I have a place to sell them

no regrets with converting most but not all of my rx 470's and rx 480s to this gear.

Nice here are the $ per hash ratios... I'm curious about the hashrate per power consumption ratios of these nvidia cards... what would be the most power efficient of the bunch and how do the others compare?

@ theyankeeswin

I have been looking for an excuse to buy one of them.

I will order and review it when it comes. It is the thinest mining gpu with some balls.

It could be good for biostar z170 builds

no riser needed

one katana
one 1080 ti
one katana
one 1080 ti

should fit easy with the founder edition

http://galaxstore.net/GALAX-GeForce-GTX-1080-TI-Founders-Edition_p_123.html

It is a bit high at 432 with shipping.

but it should allow for 4 card builds and no over heating.

I have an interest in the card.

I shot an email to [email protected]

here it is :

I just ordered the Galax katana 1070 Order #GX......

I will be reviewing it on bitcointalk.org

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.18882834

I do not want a price break but please ship it to me quickly. I would love to be able to let the people on bitcointalk know that it is a good mining card.

Thanks Philip A......

I hope he likes mining and sends it to me quickly.

This could be a great card for mining in cases

I am very interested in this card for a case build!!
Yes please let us know
Edit Newegg has a 5% off mobile discount right now all day

You forgot 1060 3GB, best price/performance ratio of all Nvidias: mine do 305h@200$. 1.52 ratio!
The only downside is slightly lower resale value.

I would never buy a 3gb card to mine.

No one knows what coins you will be mining 1 month from now. and in a month 3gb could be hurt.

zer coin is a knock off of zec but it needs 8gb to mine it.

If zec gets compromised by asics and changes it al-gore-rhythm to only allow 6gb to only allow 8gb the 3gb cards are close to worth less.

so at 200 for 3gb and 220 for 6gb I would get 6gb.

Now of course if high zec profits lasts for 75 days you would be okay
