295 to about 310 is about the max, depends on stock clocks a little bit. ive got some sapphire tech nitro+ rx 580 special editions which I expect wont get much more than the 480's I currently have and the rx 480s I have from sapphire tech do 310 sol/s

For ZEC, on my RX 580's I get ~325 H/s with a 1350 MHz core clock and 1950 MHz memory clock on Windows 10.

You'll be better off minng ETH with Polaris cards, leave the GTX 1060 on ZEC.

It seems just normal if you didn't do any OCs.
Rx580 is more suitable for ETH than ZEC. Change the miner.

You need the blockchain driver.

As others have said, certain cards just do not perform as well as other cards. Specifically AMD vs Nvidia.

My AMD 480s super BIOS modded etc would do 29.5 MHs, and my brothers 1080 would do 34 stock, so yeah.

In general, similarly-priced Nvidia cards will be better for equihash coins.

Back when Bitcoin and Litecoin dominated, AMD was the main practical choice for GPU miners, but things have since changed. Beyond looking at general trends with GPU manufacturers, also look at your specific hardware and test it out on multiple algorithms.

That is right. The nVidia 1080 Ti is better for ZEC mining.

1350 core clock, that must be very power thirsty  ;D

Sometimes it just comes down to the Silicon lottery and perhaps you just got stuck with one of the losers. I know I have a few cards that for whatever reason cannot hash at the same rate as their exact same model siblings. At first I didn't worry about it too much as it was often a small percentage, but now I test all of new cards that I buy and if the hashrate deviation is too great I no longer hesitate to return them within the 30-day window which most retailers allow.
