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)

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

Can you give us some facts, like speed and power consumption @wall ?

I think for ZEC mining, they are 3H/W. That is 50% more efficient than RX 480.

Thank you for this informations, can you give us also the power usage?

If you have these number please also share Performance-Wattage for stock settings

Thank you so much

^gtx1080 isnt much better for memory-based work, but core-based is about 30% better.   so a 1070/$350 and a 1080/$450 are about equal, but the 1080 allows better density and might be easier to resell

Got a chance to grab a gtx 1070 for 350 or gtx 450 for 500 new friend has from one of his rigs wonder if the 100 dollars is worth it not sure if the DDR5X on the 1080 is worse for mining or if the algorithms will adapt for it because of the price if rather get the 1080 but the cards mostly to mine. Any current help with the updated and drivers would be awesome thanks!

Till now GTX 1070/1080 are disappointing for monero (around 600-700 h/s) against 850-880 for nano or fury-x.  This could change if sp release the somewhat promised new cryptonight miner with 900h/s for a GTX 1070.

More like 700/730 for 1070, but the consumption are far lower than with nano or fury. But yeah we need a better one, so far nvidia is much more profitable mining zcash or lbry than monero even @900h, i think that's why the improved monero miner isn't here.

The 1080 is the best for ZEC.

Most miners are concerned with $/hash; in that regard: the 1080 is not the best.

That is right. The 1080 is too expensive.

I would like to see XMR come into the picture as a profitable coin for the Nvidia cards.  Just having ZEC really makes this a hard sell for me to buy some 1070's.  I have a rig I need to retrofit with some updated cards and I am considering the 1070's for this rig.  

I would like to add some diversity to my rigs to give me options if things start to go bad for the AMD cards the Nvidia cards may be able to help stablize the cash flow, and vice versa.  Having different cards with different strengths could be a real bonus.  So I was hoping there was some activity to improve the hashing on some other coins to help make the sale that I should add the 1070's into the mix.  It is a hard sale when the cost is so high for these cards.  So I am just looking for some more bright spots for the 1070 to help make the case for spending the extra money.

nvidia are good on other algo, like monero, lbry, lbry currently rised a bit and it's again with good profit better than ethereum for nvidia

Further, I can not hit 30 MH/s on ETH with low power. It has to be up at the 70's to hash 30

The EVGA would hash the same regardless if I had it down to 50
