Topic: Most Energy Efficient Coins? (Read 3734 times)
And what exacly does that matter? If you want an energy efficient system just don't mine any coin, there is not much of a diffrence between coins, can say that..
x11 is the most energy efficient algo, if you underclock instead of overclock you would save even more and cooler..
they are just less optimized, not really more efficient, but the heavycoin algo is different it is really more efficient, someone in the official thread explained why
metiscoin is said to be power efficient. but the exchange rate is very low.
i am geting 2.1Mh/s @960w with scrypt mining using 3 280x..how much will i het in x11 and groestl..? Does hasrate varies using these algos..?
Nxt is 1200 times as energy efficient as Bitcoin, and 350 times as cost efficient with higher security:

What about heavycoin with HEFTY1?
I use 2 290 and one 280x, total watt 460 @66Mh/s
I use 2 290 and one 280x, total watt 460 @66Mh/s
Anyone do a test for Scrypt-OG? It boasts that it is 8x less memory intensive than Scrypt. Wonder how that fairs to Groestl, X11, and others.
Code:
With my r9 280x + hd 7970 I consume less power from the wall with X11 then in Groestl.
Groestl consumes an average of ~415 Watts from the wall giving 15.12Mh/s
while x11 cunsumes an average of ~370 Watts, giving 4.8Mh/s
(with optimal miner parameters for the cards and athalon II X2 270 cpu+4GB memory)
(all measured with a power consumption device plugged into the wall power socket.)
So the conclusion is X11 is more power efficient than Groestl!
just did the test for scrypt-og aka nfactor 6,
with same hardware as before, I get 8.04Mh/s and consume an average of ~448W
so X11 is most efficient.
Cool. Still better than Scrypt, Scrypt-N and Script Jane. About Keccak and Skein energy consumption.
I'm curious about total profitability of X11 vs various scrypt that covers electricity cost. Maybe coinwarz or whatmine will add X11 to their table soon.
Just saw that WhatMine has x11 already in place. Good to know.

This guy says differently:
Someone on the french forum about mining i come from run some tests with a simple rig setup, with 2 x R9 280X
All tests ran with the same frequency etc..
Each algo can be optimized, but for comparison, it's good.
Power at the wall:
Result : Groestl is the most gpu friendly algo, for power, temp and noise, even better than X11
a little tuning on one of mine:
4 R9 280x + 1 x 7950.
3 R9 are overclocked at 1250MHz, the 4th at 1150MHz - 1.2v
The 7950 runs at 1100MHz - 1.15v
Memory for all 4 run at 1000MHz
Look at the temp (scrypt : between 75 to 83°C)

Probably just least optimized, not most energy efficient.

GroestlCoin would be the most energy effiency algo, then x11
Blackcoin requires just proof of stake so that must be the most efficent as the wallet is not using large amounts of cpu or gpu just bandwidth.
New coins are only added in proportion to those that already hold/use the currency so I guess thats either fair or not. Ive often wondered if all the fuss and bother of mining is really important to a coin's success, Quark mostly finished with new coins but still requires mining as will Bitcoin at some point so is that worse or better, asic covers it for BTC but not QRK
