yea, go amd if your planning to mine just ETH but in my opinion 1070s a good buy for more versatile/flexible gpu

Sorry not aware that AMD is better for ETH. but for future use 1070 is better than 1060? for AMD part which is better to purchase?

I prefer 1070 for its flexibility. But if you focus on ETH, P106-100 is a good choice for better ROI.
I'm using P106-100 for mining ETH, each card costs about 240$ here, and it could draw 25.5 Mh/s, while 1070 may cost about 470$ and hash 30.5 Mh/s.

Planning to setup my first mining rig. Which is better for ETH 6pcs of GTX1060 @ $279.99 each or 3pcs GTX1070 @ $429.99 each. Also need some advises for long term mining plan if GTX1060 will still be useful after several years.


1060 was better choice in past, but now with hyunix memory 1060 is too slow for eth.
Because of that is much better to go on 1070 cards. Even new p106 mining cards have lots of hyunix Sad


Is it a good thing that they are using hynix or not? Is there a way to know if what memory are they using?
