Title: BTC mining with RTX3080 Post by: aswin123adam on September 29, 2020, 07:42:08 AM So I am a gamer who is into FPS games like siege valorant and apex . Tried preordering RTX 3080 after I heard its gonna be a great product to mine BTC with .
The pre-order went like a shitshow and unfortunately I couldnt checkout anything . I already have a 2060 Super 8GB which I mostly use for gaming and its pretty good for mining too but it heats up a lot more than when I use it for gaming since its not that much of a pretty setup . Thats the reason i'm planning to buy 2 3080 to create a dedicated mining setup . Then I read an article online comparing the use of FE graphics cards vs using used up chinese graphics cards to mine and as a conclusion I thought I could just hold my thought of making a new mining setup with 2 3080 and wait till I can get some used up 3080 chinese card to create a setup . is this the right decision to make ?? I know it could take a some time before these things are available but I think the end results will be worth it .

Read the 1st post pinned here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2415854.msg24714338#msg24714338) point-3 No GPU is worth didley for mining BTC. The crapcoin alts - sure, but forget about mining BTC with it. Along those lines the proper area for posting about altcoin stuff is here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=160.0). This one where you posted is for BTC only. Title: Re: BTC mining with RTX3080 Post by: philipma1957 on September 29, 2020, 05:46:56 PM you are going to be moved to alt coins or deleted .
this board is for directly mining etc with an asic machine. you want to go to my thread in alt coins and read up on using a pool like nice hash to mine an alt coin then have nicehash conversation it to btc automatically. my thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5144362.0 a 3080 thread for you https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5277738.0 note I asked the mod to move you to alt coins. and I copied these to my thread in case he deletes you.

Tried preordering RTX 3080 after I heard its gonna be a great product to mine BTC with . Wrong information mate, RTX3080 or even 3090 isn't powerful enough to mine bitcoin, you can only mine Ethereum or other altcoins with these cards, they are best for mining Ethereum right now, I heard they pull up to 94MHS per card, very good performance for the money.
