NVIDIA GTX 1070 - 8GB 450/100 = 4.5 With these settings it's more like 140-150W. I have 2 x 1070GTX and with -150 CORE and 70% POWER LIMIT I have about 110W/card @ 385sols/s.

I run my 1070 as the the same settings you got (nearly, xcept core) and I am having around 470sols/s. %70 Power Limit, +150Core / 600 Memory, Win7, Nicehash. Pulling around 155watts from the wall. (Only 1 GPU+Mobo)

Isn't it better to have your core overclocked for equihash? 385sols/s looks like a bit low.

Just building new rig... Win 10 w/DSTM Miner..

1070 TI - 542 Sol, +150 core. +750 mem, 3.28 Sol/W

Not to shabby....

I can confirm the same. Mining ZCL. One PC(no rig) with Asus Strix 1070ti 8GB.
Zcash CUDA Miner 0.3.4b with Windows10

1070TI 530-545 Sol/s
with +100 core and +725 memory

Unfortunately I can get any better than 30.6MH/s on ETH but have read about 31.5 possible.
Who cares, mining ZCL is anyway better since higher hashrate in terms of ROI compared with chart.

so I get an important information here. for zcash, I have to build a rig with nvidia cards. I will try to spend a little for gtx 1050 ti for the beginning of my journey to make some coins. thank you for nice thread.

All results using dstm 0.5.7; core/mem clocks are as-reported values in MSI AfterBurner. No real tweaking of voltages or power limits employed.

Zotac Mini GTX 1050 Ti - 190 Sols/s - 1835/3800
Asus GTX 1060 3GB - 305 Sols/s - 2000/4151
Unknown GTX 1080 FE - 540 Sols/s - 1898/4714

The real surprise here is the relatively good performance of the 1050 Ti, a card that is all but written off most of the time.

As you can guess from the title, I've made a benchmark list for Equihash. I've gathered info from bitcointalk and the Zcash/Zclassic chats/forums. The list is not yet complete (it will most likely never be since the miners get updated so often and plenty of new cards are coming up this year).

Much of the data is being hard to get without first hand experience but I managed to gather some, this is the list at the moment: https://zdeveloper.org/wiki:zcash_mining_benchmarks
I'm waiting for corrections and updates. Maybe it will helps some people decide which cards to get next time they assemble a rig.

Most power efficient (Sol/Joule) cards:

AMD RX480 Sapphire Nitro+ OC 8GB 305/140 = 2.2
NVIDIA GTX 1070 - 8GB 450/100 = 4.5

Shockingly, Nvidia is more than twice as efficient...

1070 is also about twice the price.

I doubt hard its twice the price. I bought my GTX 1070 in europe for 335€ and RX 480 costs 220-240€ dependent on the brand and model. So 100€ more for better efficiency and resale value.

335? what model? i'm not aware of such a low price for a 1070 maybe reference, but they have shitty colling, i would not bother

You can find new non-reference 1070's for US$319 easily enough - http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZOTAC-GeForce-GTX-1070-DirectX-12-ZT-P10700I-10P-8GB-256-Bit-GDDR5-PCI-Express-3-/292041166887?hash=item43ff029027

You are lucky. I live in another place.

It's better to compare 1060 6GB to RX480 then as they are similar in price

My 1060 cost $229 and is capable of 330+ sol/s @ 93% power limit, 79 degrees, 1900 core / 9000 mem (+100/+700), 46% fan speed which is basically silent.
I can push more if I increase the temp and power limits and run the fan @ 100% of course Cheesy

I can get 415 Sol/s on 50% power with one of my 1070's and the other is below 400 Sol/s

That is about 93 watts with my PSU efficiency but not wall tested

The higher GTX 1070 can hit +250mhz core between the factory and manual OC, and the memory can do +800mhz if I wanted

Nvidia truly beats AMD when it comes to mining Zcash, but lacks efficiency in Monero and Ethereum (except for those special cases where people have developed some very efficient but private Nvidia miners).

NVIDIA GTX 1070 - 8GB 450/100 = 4.5 With these settings it's more like 140-150W. I have 2 x 1070GTX and with -150 CORE and 70% POWER LIMIT I have about 110W/card @ 385sols/s.

you are doing something wrong, i have 416 sol /110 watt or less

Even 385/110 = 3.5 J/W. That is still more efficient than the AMD cards.

Is that power number from the wall?

You can get about 420 sols @ 105W from the wall (i have couple of brands of 1070 and this applies to all of them, do not have 8+6pins though). Both of these comments are innacurate. Firstly you cannot get 450 sols at 100w with ANY 1070. Secondly it is bad underclocking the core for equihash algos.

I'm getting around 140 sols @ 65W on 1050ti. However if you include the computer it is running closer to 75W.

140 sols / 75W ==> 1.87 sols / W ... not that great.

It can probably be optimized a bit more but for equihash the 1070 is beating it hands down, more the double the efficiency.
