Title: for GTX 1060 owners Post by: s4v4g3 on June 05, 2017, 11:52:30 PM i'm going to build a new Nvidia 6 cards rig with x6 GTX 1060s
i'm wondering what's the hashrate on Ethereum for the single 1060.. i searched online but hashrates are so different does the 1060 has problems with windows which make it runs at 2.5 MH/s on ETH mining? are there any disadvantage for using nvidia cards for mining? (because all of the AMD cards are out of stock) i need someone who tried to mine ETH on Windows using gtx 1060 so let me know what is your hashrate also if there's any problems with this card for mining Title: Re: for GTX 1060 owners Post by: Vann on June 05, 2017, 11:56:32 PM The $190 PNY GeForce GTX 1060 3GB Graphics Cards can do 23.5mh ETH and 268 SOL/s ZEC each @ ~60W per card.

The only disadvantage is with 3GB VRAM, you're not going to be able to dual mine.

Most miners go with AMD because it's been around longer for mining. Until more recently Nvidia support for mining was not very good. The cost per hash is generally better with AMD cards. With the latest 10 series GPU's, that is not as much the case any more and Nvidia is most certainly in the game. The other reason miners like AMD cards is they are more hackable. To get the most out of the RX cards for ETH you have to adjust the memory timings in the Bios. You should easily be able to ~29 MH/s with just a memory timing mod.

They were a real bargain that produced good hash rates.
