Hi every one, quick question....

Ceteris paribus, would you use 8x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 Ti WINDFORCE OC 4G or 2x INNO3D iChiLL GeForce GTX 1080 Ti X3 given the price of both setups is exactly the same?

cheers

GTX1080Ti is better choise in this case. There are many pros of 1080Ti but the main is much less space required for 2GPUs instead of 8 GPUs. And the posibility of future extension of your rig of course will be better if you will choose 1080Ti

Base on what i experience you can get more profitability in gtx1050ti less power consumption and the price is more cheaper
I don't agree with the above price about gtx1050ti i believe you can get GPU much cheaper for gtx1050ti and for gtx 1080 those are really expensive..
The only problem you can get if you choose gtx 1080 you can have more PCI slot space than 1050ti..

GPU Hardware management is a plus, its a lot more difficult to maintain 8 gpus compared to Two

well what I've found is info all over the place for the 1080 ti,

sol/s 1080ti 650 to 690 so for 2x 1300 to 1380
sol/s 1050ti 160 to 170 so for 8x 1280 to 1360

2x 1080ti is 500w
8x 1050ti is 560w

2x 1080ti 1359,68€
8x 1050ti 1402,26€

In my view the differences are so marginal that I need a experts opinion regarding other factors that maybe im not seeing here to make my final decision.

Do the math about energy consumption + max hashrate from the cards they give on this algorythm and you will see
