Hello guys,

I want to make a rig, so please can you tell me which one these cards will get me fastest ROI. It doesn't matter what altcoin it mines, I am gonna cash out quickly. My electricity costs .08$

- INNO3D GTX 1060 6GB -  424$

- MSI GTX 1060 3GB OC -   351$

- INNO3D GTX 1070 -         585$ - 620$  (price not 100% confirmed)

- ASUS RX 570 4GB ROG STRIX OC - 470$

- SAPPHIRE Pulse RX 570 4GB OC - 478$

- Asus Radeon RX 580 OC Edition 4GB DUAL - 509$

- Asus Radeon RX 580 OC Edition 8GB DUAL - 580$

- ASUS GTX ROG STRIX RX VEGA 56 OC 8GB (3fans) - 1015$


These are my local retailer's rate. Thanks.

I would not recommend you to pay attention to the GPU with 4 GB of memory. In 2019, they will be unsuitable for the production of the most popular altcoin Ethereum. This will significantly reduce the demand for these GPU and the price of them will fall. Why you need it. All the other GPU you can buy. But it is better to choose a coin before buying. This is important because the GPU has its own different characteristics and different profit on each coin.

You can only know or check the present profitability with those cards thru online calculators and have an idea when will you gonna ROI

However take note, Its only a present time, no one gonna tell you when will these profits last due to difficulty and coin price variations

Be ready with that risk

is it possible for you to source gtx 1070ti?
that would be the best option imho.. if that is not avail, well them just grab gtx1070 = it has good speed 30mh/s on eth and nice performance in other algos which is bettr suit nv cards
like neoscrypt, phi, xevan,tribus, c11 and etc..

I agree on the 1070 ti (or just 1070s).  Mining ethereum I get a stable 31-32 Mh/s drawing only 95-110watts with the 1070s.  Take into account the power consumption of cards and the PSU you will be using when you plan out your rig.  When I tested AMDs they were drawing a lot more power (forgot how much off hand). 

Its a balance of how many cards your motherboard can support, your PSU and what cards you can get.

the cards of the company ASUS, on my rigs, proved to be good, sapphire also look good, this is one of those that you wrote. msi - capricious.

Thanks for the suggestion guys. After doing some more research, I think ASUS Strix RX 570 4gb is the way to go but still not sure.
Some say that hashrate difference between RX570 4gb and GTX 1070 is not that big. As I said I want the fastest ROI.
GTX 1060 6gb is reasonably priced too.

Also I think 4gb is not big problem because I can also upgrade by the time dag crosses 4gb and there are other coins to mine too. I have seen mixed opinion on this one, some say that before dag crosses 4gb etherium will go pos.

Dude what the hell are you talking about? 4GB cards wont be an issue until 2021.

May 2019 is the date for 3GB gpus.....

I would always suggest going for nVidia's GTX 1070. It has good hash rate, and it have wider mining possibilities when we talk about different algorithms. I use GTX 1070 for my rig, but RX 570 are also good choice I guess. Personally, I would always go for nVidia GPU's. And yes, I would agree with you that price for GTX 1060 6gb is reasonable.

wtf is happening to the prices. I mean this is insane......

The price are extremely high for the cards but if you like me are a believer in bitcoin go for it with the RX 580 8GB cards. You will make about 12 USD or 0.00107 BTC with 6 cards daily but who knows what value has this amount after a few years. In this context you can start mining.

You should take the electricity bill into consideration, I think 1080ti is better, of course, if your electricity bill is not money, then it is 1060, I have done the table analysis.

1080ti are going above or around 1000$ where I live. I think I will choose 1070. It looks good on nicehash too. I will confirm the price tomorrow and then purchase it on Thursday. GTX 1060 6gb and RX 570 are good too maybe. I just want the best value for my money.

Go ahead, 1060 is good,I hope you make more money, you will buy a printing money machine to go home, that kind of feeling is very good.

More reliable than work, because he will not strike for you, keep giving you profits, keep giving you COINS, you can even dig a lifetime, you can be intoxicated in it.

LOl. I m not gonna take it too seriously as things can take a downturn but it is good. The sad thing is I knew about this 4 years ago but always used to think that it's too late now. I will make some bucks probably but it will be fun and interesting that's for sure.

I also have 6 card use 1060 for mining zec. I think this coin is very good. I'm going to keep digging. I hope everyone can dig together.

The mining needs to endure a lot of loneliness, the least opinion, but also the most profitable business, not one, very wonderful.

Buy 1080ti because you will buy strongest card available, and once when ampere/volta come out they will not become obsolete, also 1080ti have nice resell value.

Can it pay off to mine SHA-256 alt-coins? There's probably some better algorithm coin to mine with GPU.

My suggestions:
1 - INNO3D GTX 1070
2 - SAPPHIRE Pulse RX 570 4GB OC
3 - ASUS RX 570 4GB ROG STRIX OC
In that order.

I am also looking for good ROI rig and I am thinking about GTX 1050 TI. Those are 4 gigs and are really cheap price compare to others...

Yes, GTX 1050 Ti is not so bad. I mean you would be able to make some profit with it. But honestly there is a reason why its cheaper. Those GPU's that OP posted are better, a lot better. Yes their prices are higher, but you will get a lot more than with cheaper ones. Eventually you will understand that most of the time, it will pay off if you buy better GPU's for mining.

I still suggest that high performance CARDS are used for mining, residual and power consumption are better than normal, and maybe 5 years later, you can still play games.

Buying Altcoins rather than GPUs is more profitable right with the volatility.

If you really want to mine, I would say a 1070 is nice (mine can do ok on ethash even, 31-32 mhs). And you can easily get >4sols / watt with most current equihash miners if you want to talk efficiency. But wait until you can get a new one for under 500, well under 500.

At the moment investing into GPU's for mining is expensive thing. Also with everything that is going on (price drop and rise of difficulty), getting your investment money back through mining would take really long time. But I agree with you, high end cards would always be better choice. Unlike ASIC miners, GPU's will always be easier to sell and thus return some portion of your investment. Selling GPU's is easier simply because more people uses them, and because of that market is bigger. There are some properties that GPU's have which ASIC miners don't.

Which coin you suggest to do mining ? ???

With latest news about asic for cryptonight no need buy vega, then GTX 1070 and mine zcash
