I'm just wondering is it possible to skein+eth?

I'm also new to mining .
I've a 1080ti+a 980ti, I don't pay for electricity.
The 980ti has a custom wc so it doesn't go over 45c Max oc.
The 1080 ti evga ftw, doesn't go over 65c, thats with max oc.

I've been mining skein dgb with around 1660 mh/s.
But i'm just wondering if eth+another coin would be better .
I've tried eth+sia+pascal+sia+lbry.
ETH+lbry its the best so far for me, still less then Skein.


Difquestion: I wonder if a 1000w PSU gold from corsair would be able to run 980ti+1080TI+ a AMD VEGA or another 1080ti.

Also sry if post doesn't belong here.

You can't dual mine Skein+Eth.  Since you have two cards, you could use one to mine Skein, and the other to mine Eth.

Technically, the one that you mine Eth could dual mine one of the compatible coins like Lbry, Pascal, Decred, or Sia.  That would mean you are actually mining 3 coins with two cards.

Nvidia cards are not great at dual mining though.  It's probably best to stick with one algorithm/coin, and use both the mine the crap out of it.  The 1080ti is a great performer on certain types of algorithms.  Check whattomine.com to see what some of those are.

1080/1080Ti are very good in dual mining, only their ETH hashrate is not good which is compensated by much more sia/lbry/dcr/pasc
Anyway there are a lot of other algos where they truly shine.
