Hi 👋 how low can the wattage of a RTX2070 goes? Someone is offering to buy at 500$, I know the card can do 34-36MH but at what wattage? Anyone using this card should please share their power draw

I have these video cards, very good video cards for mining and they don't get warm. They are located in an open case.
Core +50
Power Limit 71
memory +600
40 megahash
You can increase the memory frequency from 600 to 1000 and get 41-43 megahashes. I do not increase, because some video cards are unstable mining.
Electricity consumption from the wall 140-150 watts

And 150watt at 40MH good? I don't think so because two gtx1660 draws 140watts at 63MH, is there anyway or settings to lower the power consumption of the rtx2070 to atleast get lower watt at lower hashrate

I was unable to reduce the power consumption and the power limit settings were set to a minimum.
They will tell you about 125 watts, but this is not true. Take measurements from snapshots. For example, my farm uses about 850 watts. 110 watts are consumed by the motherboard, processor and hard drive. As a result, each video card consumes 740/5 = 148 watts. Cougar silver power supply. With a Gold power supply, there would be a better result

2 x 1660 draw more than 140 watts at the wall more like the same 150 the 2070 draws at the wall.

and they cost more than 500 closer to 800 for 2 of them.

but i do think i rather own them than own 2070 cards.

Philipma I think this is the time when those who leave too soon will regret their decision, those who fear the coming of bear market and sold their gpu and those who sold their coins too early, it looks like bear market isn't going to be over for months to come, what do you think? Am I right or wrong?

I wish I knew Grin

I do know this the question is off topic.

I have an abundance of power and locations. With a lack of cheap gear ⚙️.

If I knew prices would hold I would just over pay for gear.

But I don’t know 🤷‍♂️ basically none of really know what tomorrow will bring us. It is what makes the game fun.

Have got some 2070 super, running at 125 Watt and 40 Mhs.
Not too bad.

The only reason why I would want to hold a RTX2070 over gtx1660s is because it has 8gb memory, the gtx1660s will run out of their magic juice once ETH nears 6gb DAG but that might not happen if ETH PoW get eradicated

I recommend you to have a look to the wiki of lolMiner... he explains how to fix the core to reduce the Watts in the 2070 to aroung 85W instead of the normal 120W with his miner.

You can fix it by the OS or by lolMiner with the last update:

I hope you get a nice result.
