Topic: GTX 1070 8GB card. Suggestions Please (Read 1401 times)
one last question bro...for hush, do u mine solo or in a pool? if in a pool, which one?
thanks for the reply. since i am a newbie, i need some clarification. Is it possible to mine 2 currencies at the same time? Does it use a single miner to mine both or do we use 2 miners, one for each? Please explain.
start reading here. its claymores dual miner thread.

thanks Mate. that clears up a lot of things...thanks for the input !
Check out whattomine under the GPU section.
ETH/EXP are Dagger Hashimoto based coins and can dual mine with coins like LBC DCR and SIA. On whattomine this is called ethhash.
GTX 10 cards have an edge in ZCASH based coin mining. That algo is called equiihash on whattomine.
Coins I mine with my GTX 10 cards are: ZEC ZEN HUSH and KMD.

also, can you please tell me which miner you use for equihash?
EWBF miner has been the best for me for GTX 10 cards mining equihash.
You need to understand what is happening when mining to know how dual mining works. I will give you brief examples.
ETH - Ethereum, Expanse and others are compute light, memory heavy algorithms and most miners have extra memory overhead unused during ETH mining. This allows for dual mining of a compute heavy coin with a light memory footprint, like LBC/SIA/DCR/PASC.
ZEC - ZCASH, ZENCash, HUSH and KMD are all equihash coins and that algo is both compute intense and carries a beefy memory footprint. As far as I know, there is no dual mining with equihash.
Thanks for clearing things. So, does that mean i have to have separate miners for HUSH, KMD , ZCASH and ZenCash?
That term "miners" is a bit too bland now. Are you asking...
1. Do I have to have a unique mining software for each of those coins? A: No, they all mine using the same equihash algorithm and EWBF miner is just one CUDA based application compatible with them all.
2. Do I have to have separate mining configs for each coin? A: Yes, each coin will use a different port for both solo mining and pools will have a unique port of their own with need of address or login info.
3. Do I have to have multiple mining configs or rigs to mine more than one Equihash coin? A: Yes, either a single rig full of cards mines a single coin and you have multiple rigs uniquely pointing to each coin, or it is possible with some miners to specify single or specific GPUs in a multi GPU rig which would allow a single rig to mine multiple coins. Not easy...
I have 4 x Gigabyte 1070 with 8 GB. Curently swiching between signatum which is new crypto i belive can be worth a lot one day and ETH + SIA.
Yes, I also have a card switched to mine signatum, it is abit sad that some incident happened to signatum team that caused dropping of price, but the dev team still strong and continue their roadmap. I visited the latest signatum marketplace beta version, quite a good design.

I have 4 x Gigabyte 1070 with 8 GB. Curently swiching between signatum which is new crypto i belive can be worth a lot one day and ETH + SIA.
Thanks for the info...may i know why you chose these specific cryptos?
also, for SIA, how many hours do it take to get one SIA? do you mine solo or in a pool?
I was building my rig with ETH in mind. Then i found out about dual mining and decided for SIA because they have a service behind the coin and i belive it will be worth as investment. I use pools for all mining. I am not sure how much time i need for 1 Sia coin you get few of them every hour or two I guess.
Signatum i started just because it was convinient. I got into it few days after launch and mining it since then. Already had some nice profits of it.
thanks for the reply. which mining software do u use for the dual mining?
do u mine solo or in a pool?
I use claymore miner and always mine in a pool.
Thanks for the info. I have sent you a PM. It would be great if you can reply and help.
Thanks.

I think ETH + SIA is best option without loosing eth hashrate
I flip around a lot.

I like the idea of lbry in theory and the app is pretty slick but they have a lot of work to do with it (speed etc.)

i see quite a few recommending zcash at the moment in various forums...how much o/p do you get mining it in a week?
I'm a relatively new small timer like you. I have 2 old rigs that I use to mine with r9 270s. I converted one to my regular gaming computer and putting a 1080 TI in soon. My other rig I'm going to put my 1070's in when my 1080 TI comes. TBH it looks like it changes a lot due to dramatic price swings. I Think it's probably best to find a coin you believe in and the 1070 mines good TBH. I would not take my opinion. I'm more of a hobbyist than serious miner.
The 1080 TI's seem like a good deal now that the Vega came out...
