Title: Radeon 470 8gb versus Nvidia 1060 3gb - What is more reasonable to buy right now
Post by: jenifive on April 26, 2017, 08:30:30 PM
Hi!

On which GPU it will be better to make mining RIGs?

Ethereum mining soon will be gone. It will be time to choose another coin to mine.

What GPU manufacturer will be more universal to buy in that case?

1. Sapphire, MSI Radeon 470 8gb

2. Palit or MSI Nvidia 1060 3gb? Also is 3 gb enough for ZEC and other coins?

I had the same question as well. I am planning to start mining Bitcoin, and I was wondering which one is more efficient and powerful enough for a good mining reg. I have hard time deciding which one is better, and would love to hear miners' opinions.

Why would you need those GPUs to mine Bitcoin?
