I would only bother with 1080's if I somehow managed to get them for a price closer to a 1070 otherwise it simply might take far too long to reach ROI.

I think 1080tis build will be worth it in the long run if u have enough money as once they have ROI'd there profit will be far greater then 1070 etc , But if u dont have enough money its best to go 1070s , also the less amout of 1080 tis as compared to other cards will make the managing easier make less sound ,heat etc

In general, the 1080 isn't too popular. For the price and power use, there are better options. However, in some cases, the lower popularity does mean you'll be able to get them more easily, or at a less inflated price. (At my local Best Buy, the 1080s were the only ones consistently in stock on the shelves.)


1060s, 1070s, and 1080tis are pretty good. The important thing to consider here is rig density.

With some fixed number of slots, you can make better use of them with 1080ti cards rather than 1060s. However, the 1080ti usually does not offer the same individual price/performance ratio that you can get with 1060s. For example, I can get 3GB 1060s for around $200-$210 after hunting around. A 1080ti would cost me at least $700, and it does not mine at triple the rates of 3GB 1060s on any algorithm I'm interested in. (For example, I can get about 300 H/s mining Zcash with each 1060. I haven't seen many reported hashrates for a 1080ti that exceed 750-800, at best.)

With 1060s, you're getting a smaller overall rig hashrate for the motherboard/CPU/ram/etc. that you got to support the GPUs, so that's what can start to mess with the overall price/performance ratio when compared to 1080ti cards.


Another thing to consider is resale value. A 1080ti will most likely retain its usefulness for longer than 1060s, assuming you maintain them just as well.

sorry, my bad...
But when you read mining, and than you see hardware, first thing what is on my mind is GPU, ( i am mining for 3 years so far, i started with GPUs, and i am still using GPUs...)

Yeah, why are graphics card miners so blind?  Huh

No offence, but this is just far too common thing.

Please note the top sticky thread, whose subject reads "No posts about GPUs or altcoin mining here, use the correct sub-forums".

Hello, have you tried them all? in what proportion are those cards? price / hash rate / wattage ? What is your experience, mining various algos (eth, zec, lbc...)
