i am buying myself 1070 (also thinking about 1060 becouse of the price, but i do not know which one to take.

the price varie from 390€ to 450€. i will buy 6 of them. I have no idea what are the difference,but i read, that mainly they perfom the same. IS this true?
I have 2 AMD rig, but no knowlidge about ndvidia.

i was looking at this store. What would be best buy?

thank you for any help

take the mini they perform well and have a much lower price the kfa2 or the inno3d from palit are very good brand they cost around 380 shipping included from amazon, 1060 take the 3gb version no need to waste money on the 6gb version, but it's better to wait for the refresh for this, which is going to happen soon

How much does a GTX 1070 do in ethereum?

31.5 MH/s overclocked.

I think the 1070 is better for ZEC mining.

They are the king now. Very efficient.

I have 1060/1070/1080/1080ti... if you cut tdp to 80 you have the same performance per watt for all models. 3.5 ratio

1060 310 with 90w
1070 420 with 120w
1080 540 with 150w
1080ti 700 with 195w

Is that on the wall?

Yes. And more or less what you read on GPUZ.. different from AMD product where 80w in GPUZ will be 100 at the wall (pcie power consume)

I suggest EVGA SC or FTW.
3 years international warranty, very good service.

Thank you Fullzero!  I will check those out.  I have been torn about switching the OS since it appears so many times that Windows support is better than Linux.   It is kind of frustrating.   Sad

I released nvOC to help change that.  Smiley



But hear me out.  I scanned through your post for nvOC and I ran across this problem.  Nowhere in the post did I see a donate address.  Seriously, no donate address! 

This means without donations the developer of nvOC will starve and die. 

No worries, he replaced the donate address with a backdoor Smiley

Sweet!  I didn't know anything about nvOC.  I will give it a try and see if I can get it up and running for this rig.  Anything to make the management of the rigs easier would be fantastic.

I followed your link in your signature and I can already see a problem... See how I am?  I am a whiny customer and I haven't even tried the product yet...

But hear me out.  I scanned through your post for nvOC and I ran across this problem.  Nowhere in the post did I see a donate address.  Seriously, no donate address! 

This means without donations the developer of nvOC will starve and die.  And if he starves and dies then we are stuck with orphaned technology and no support.  I don't want to adopt orphaned technology for my miners do I?  This must be some sort of oversight on your part as I am pretty sure you don't want to starve... LOL 

Thanks for sharing nvOC with the community.  This is a much needed tool.  I will check it out!  Grin

So I finally decided to get off of my backside and buy some Nvidia 1070's.  They should be here this week.  Now I need to start thinking through the details of the rig.  I will be upgrading an existing AMD rig to the NVidia cards.  It currently runs Ubuntu 14.04 with an Asrock mobo, i3, 16gb ram, and 120gig ssd. 

Trying to decide if I should stick with Ubuntu here or migrate this to Win 10.  Also looking for input from you guys on what miner software you are using.  I am thinking this miner will probably be floating between Zcash, Library, Feather based on profitability.  What mining software do you guys recommend for the NVidia cards?  Thanks!

I would stay with ubuntu; way more stable than Windows.  For ZEC use EWBF, for LBC or FTC I recommend using ccminer (there are a lot of different forks and more than one private version).

Hello, i want to start mining, tell me please
I already broke my brain Smiley) What to choose
2x 1070
or
3x 480/580 8gb
or
3x1060 6gb


What coin are you looking to mine?

you could go:

3x 480/580 8gb or 3x 470/570 8gb if you want to mine ETH or XMR

or 2x 1070 or 3x1060 6gb if you want to mine ZEC or LBC

also I would recommend making 6x gpu rigs as you will get more hash for your $. 

Hello, thank you for answer!  I am searching  for the  most situable variant for now and near future to build 4-6 rig with time . I think that 1070 is more powerfull and effective, isnt't it ?

But if isn't no difference in  profit between 1070 and 580\480 ...
I will take more cheaper gp .


It depends on how expensive your power is.  Mine is rather expensive.

currently:

my 6x 1070 rigs mining ZEC generate $420 a month - elec costs each ( rigs cost ~$2500 each)

my 6x 1060 rigs mining ZEC generate $297 a month - elec costs each ( rigs cost ~$1900 each)

for AMD I only have one 4x 470 (all with custom roms) rig mining ETC (note ETC is abnormally high right now).  It generates $293 a month - elec costs ( rig cost $1150)




So currently AMD 4x 470 generated more money. I would buy 470 or 480 for now.

It may be buried somewhere in this thread but does anyone know what the Titan X Pascal, not the Titan XP and the 1080ti gets with Reference Clocks for ZEC?

Edit: I found the 1080TI in a previous post
I have 1060/1070/1080/1080ti... if you cut tdp to 80 you have the same performance per watt for all models. 3.5 ratio

1060 310 with 90w
1070 420 with 120w
1080 540 with 150w
1080ti 700 with 195w

Can't wait for 1070 to drop the price a little bit, I think it's still high right now $379 at Newegg.

it llok like you were better to go with amd, with 6 x 470 would be equal to 6 x 1070

I think for ZEC, it is better for the 1070.
