RX 5600 44mh with 80 watts = 0,55mh per watt
RX 5500 28.5 with 50 watts = 0,57 per watt

but thats are stats from other users, i don´t own 1 of that cards to test, but it can be. Maybe someone with this cards can tell us more?

It seems that you are telling us watts from HiveOS. I have the same but there is one problem - if you want to get true values - use wattmeter. In fact it is 100-110wt for 5600 and 75-80wt for 5500.

About the best efficiency - 3060ti-3070 are the best for today. They easy to config and don`t need any flashing as RX5600.

Nope, many users tell that. But i don´t own one of this cards so it can be higher. Cheesy

You have tested an RX5600 or RX5500?

It means only one thing - we have lots of newbies that don`t pay electricity bills. I have such GPUs and tested it with wattmeter that`s why i know what i`m talking about. In RaveOS, HiveOS NVIDIA GPUs shows about the truth(but even with NVIDIA you have make some work to show true values) but AMD have huge difference between mining OS and wattmeter.

mak013 is right, people are saying 80w for RX 5600XT, but it's on software, the power on the wall is higher, I have a 5600xt, and never reached these magic values people say
I don't own a RX 5500 but I doubt about 50w on the wall

My 5600xt is using 98 W on Hive OS, but 115w on the wall (no bios mod)

Nvidia cards stats are closer to software than AMDs, so I vote for 3060ti and 3070 for the best efficiency, and another good thing about Nvidia is you don't have to bios mod, only overclock the card

I've stopped believing in the power draw that mining softwares used to display, on my rx580s I lower their core voltage to 750mv just for power saving sake and from wall these cards still draws over 100watts thanks to wattmeter

3070, 3060ti and RX5700, RX5600, RX5500 are the best GPUs for Ethereum mining. In my country, these cards are not sold in shops, and the RX5700 seems to have been discontinued. But the profit may change due to a change in the Ethereum algorithm and an increase in the network hashrate.
RTX 3070 are very expensive, you need to consider how long this energy efficiency will pay off

I got 1x Gigabye Gaming OC 3070 runs 62.88mh/s at 124w, then 2x Gigabyte Aorus 3070 one runs 63mh/s at 121w and the other runs 62.9mh/s at 124w in Pheonixminer.
All up in old as 1366 mobo and first gen I7 cpu (ie not power efficent) runs 490w from wall.

The Gaming OC runs so cool thou like 43-44c just with autofan speed, the Aorus one I have to put to 65% and other to 67% fan speed just to keep them at 49-50c.
All 3 cards really quite compared to some thou.

True definitely of efficiency are the RTX cards, my gtx1660 super is doing 32mh with 75watts and RTX3070 doing 61mh at 132watts, the bigger cards are more power efficiency all the way, this is not just a good time to build a mining rig if your I'd have build 8x RTX3070 mining rig but I will wait for drops in GPU value

RTX 3070 and 3060ti are almost the same in ETH, and yes, both are the best hashrate per watt available

I have both
3060ti - 61.10Mhs using 130w on the wall
3070 - 60.19 using 134w on the wall

I never reached 115w on the wall

Both are good cards, doesn't get too hot like 3080s, easy to reach at least 60Mhs, will have a great resale value
For me, 3060ti is a little better because of the price, which is supposed to be cheaper than 3070, but with this insame market, I think both have the same price, and with both you'll have a great rig in terms of efficiency

Hi Guys,

Until know I mostly bought GTX 1660 Super for my rigs but in term of efficiency (hashrate per watt) I think it's not amongst the best GPU to mine ETH. After OC with a GTX 1660 Super I got in average 31.80 MH/s and 70 Watts so its efficiency is approximately 0.45 MH per Watt (31.80/70).

I realized that with a RTX 3070 after OC you got in average 62.30 MH/s and 115 Watts (with the new absolute core clock feature of HiveOS) so its efficiency is approximately 0.54 MH per Watt (62.30/115) Roll Eyes

.

Yes the RTX 3070 is around 2,000$ on Ebay almost double price compared to the GTX 1660 Super but you also get almost double hash rate. Also I saw Red Panda Mining building a 6 X RTX 3070 mining rig with the same components that I use for a 6 X GTX 1660 Super except for the PSU, I need a 1300 W 80+ Gold (I normally buy 1000 W 80+ Gold for my 6 X GTX 1660 Super, I like to have a little extra power).

I think from now on, I will start to buy RTX 3070 GPUs considering in average the efficiency for RTX 3070 is 0.54 MH per Watt VS 0.45 MH per Watt for the GTX 1660 Super. We are talking approximately about 20% efficiency improvement!

Please let me know if I forget something in my analysis?

Thanks
