What would you choose for mining with NH the 3080 LHR or the 3090 ?
Any future proof decision (if any ?!)…

Of course considering the fact MSRP prices and the 3090 is DOUBLE the price of a 3080

I'd buy other cards instead, these are the worst Nvidia high end cards for mining because they have worrisome temperatures and they can die before you get your ROI back, I'd prefer 3060ti and 3070 max or just go for AMD 6600XT series

Buy 3 6600 xt at 500 each or less if you can.

the problem am having i can NOT source a single graphics cards where am living right now (Turkey) as they are outrageously expensive ! i have one option only to get few cards from canada (through a friend) but buying 10x 6600 XT is not an easy option Cheesy

id prefer buying LESS cards with more hashrate, so should i get the 3090, 3080 ((LHR)) or 3080 Ti ((LHR)) ? what is my best bet here ? i cant find any 3080 Non-LHR !...

thanks,

look for a rtx a4000
ebay canada has them
https://www.ebay.com/itm/334143280401? note I am clueless to the seller. But if I did not have 18 of them I will buy more even at the bump up price you see.

I have 18 of them 7 are running right now. 11 on the way. far better then a lhr 3080.

I have a couple 6800 xts and 12 6600s. They are the most stable cards I've run in my 5 years of mining. I almost forget I have them, after they are tuned in they have never crashed. Since feb 2020 and 3 restarts because of power outages.

3090, more options, more Hashrate, more resale value.

I personally go for 6900XTs atm. Very good option mining Firo.
And 63 / 64 Mhs ETH isnt bad either.

I didn't know that and it is great to know about 6900 XT which performs better in MTP-Firocoin than the RTX 3080 card and the price is a bit cheaper.In ETH it is 65 Mhsh without problems for the 6900 as for 6800 XT is 64 Mhsh which I own 2 of them.It is good to see that there are other options beside Eth that can make you decent amount of money per month even if you only have a card.

Since you are mentioning price as a factor here I would say that the RTX 3080 without LHR is right now the most efficient card for mining,price/performance ratio.However the RTX 3080 LHR only does about 50 Mhsh in Ethereum without the unlock from some miners,with that it can go like 60 Mhsh the most I think which still doesn't justify the price of it.You can though mine Ravencoin with this as that algorithm is not limited in LHR V1,if you happen to be so unlucky that you get a LHR V2 or even V3 nowadays not much you can do with it.If you want a future proof card then definitely go for the RTX 3090,that card will continue to be a beast in many algorithms and for a lot of time to come.
