Title: Mining on GTX 1060 6 Gig
Post by: Patuba on February 13, 2018, 02:54:57 AM
I started mining about 3 weeks ago with my 1060 GTX 6gig. The first week I mined ETH but found the difficulty was too high to get a good amount of coin. Week 2 I looked at Pirl but wasn’t impressed too much. I have been mining Verge for the last week, I like that I can get whole coins but from reading about Verge more, seems like it might not be the best coin to mine.

What would you recommend to mine with a 1060? Any recommendations for a good coin to look at?

If you like to mine i'd suggest if you have enough budget get a 1080ti or just wait for the 20x0 series of nvidia. If you dont have budget get another 1060 so that you have 2 GPU which is better to mine efficiently

I was thinking about getting a RX 570 and putting it in a old I5 computer I have to mine ETH. The price of the card is ridiculously high. Would it be better to get another 1060 or even a 1070?

Zero(ZER) would be good, high chance of a rise in the near future.

Here you go you can try to calculate your profitability if you are mining on the major coin with your GPU. but i recommend you try to take a look in another small coin. Just like lisk and other.
All of them have different difficulty and it may be a good thing if you are doing your mining on those coins which can give you easy difficulty and you can try to see lisk.

I have been calculating profitability on WhatToMine.com. What does everyone think about Verge? Should I keep mining it or are there better coins?
