Title: Which is the Best GPU for mining ETH,LTC?
Post by: Smarty14392 on July 12, 2017, 08:35:14 AM
Hello everyone.
I want to invest some of my money for purchasing some really good hardwares. I searched a lot for some really good ASIC miners but didnt found any available. Can anyone help with the GPU name and also please provide the hashrate so that i can calculate the profit. Even if anyone have any ASIC miner like L3+, etc post here. I will purchase some good ASIC miners. Just i need is a good hashrate to mine ETH or LTC or any other profitable coin.

The latest AMD GPUs are really good as well as the nvidia gtx 1080s: http://www.legitreviews.com/best-gpu-ethereum-mining-nvidia-amd-tested_195229

the last gpu from amd have their hashrate cut of 30%, not that good anymore, nvidia is better now with the new clymore build that do 25Mh with a 1060, perhaps you are talking about new professional vega amd gpu? this gpu maybe are good but need farther testing

I think nVidia 1070 will be much better in terms of ROI than the 580.

30%?

Where did you hear that, latest news said 60-65%

There is NO GPU that is viable to mine LTC with.

 For ETH at recent card pricing, it depends on how much you can get the cards FOR.

 GTX 1070 is a 30 Mh/s card give or take with minor tweeking.
 RX 470/480/570/580 can match that pretty close on the 8GB cards (that use faster memory) but need modded BIOS to do so.

 R9 290/290x/390/390x can also match that, but need modded BIOS to do so and eat ballpark twice the power.


 GTX 1080ti can do 35 or a bit more with minor tweeking, but generally costs a LOT more than the other options - it's a lot better on non-ETH mining.

 GTX 1060 can get into the low 20s, the "6GB" version is a good bit faster as it's NOT the same GPU as the "3GB" version.


 I'm not going to list pricing, as it's been in a state of major flux the last week, AND some cards have been available IN VERY SMALL QUANTITIES for quite a bit less than they were 2 weeks back (the mining-specific versions for the most part).
