Title: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: rapidleech on December 20, 2017, 01:28:48 PM hey guys
i wanna buy afew gpu for a friend to order to start mining which is better? RX 470 or GTX 1070? which coin to mine? zcash / monero / or BTG ? ive checked this BTG calculator (https://www.coinwarz.com/calculators/bitcoingold-mining-calculator/?h=500&p=500&pc=0.04&pf=0.00&d=4311265.28608301&r=12.50000000&er=0.02202511&btcer=19504.58000000&hc=0.00) it shows 180$ profit / month ?! is it real ? thanks in advance Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: Cereberus on December 20, 2017, 01:43:02 PM The RX 470 depends on what version, it works well in dual mining after you modify its bios, it can run the 8 GB card mining edition in 28.4mhsh ethereum plus about 600-800mhsh decreed in dual mining. The cost of this card is cheaper, otherwise the 1070 would perform almost the same at 29 mhsh plus about 900mhsh decreed. The problem is 1070 would consume a lot more energy as you cannot undervolt it, if you put the power limit down to 70% which is the sweet spot hashrate goes down. While on RX 470 if you mod your bios correctly you consume less energy and have a good hashrate too.
Personally I am for the RX 470 8GB version ,preferably the mining edition version from MSI or ASUS, Sapphire Nitro+ not a mining edition is a good card too. This is a generic question though and each one of us has his own preferences, someone else may like more the GTX 1070. Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ?

Post by: umine on December 20, 2017, 04:34:59 PM which is better? RX 470 or GTX 1070? Better in what? 470 is cheaper, 1070 is more universal which coin to mine? zcash / monero / or BTG ? It's only your decision. Mining coin that you believe ive checked this BTG calculator (https://www.coinwarz.com/calculators/bitcoingold-mining-calculator/?h=500&p=500&pc=0.04&pf=0.00&d=4311265.28608301&r=12.50000000&er=0.02202511&btcer=19504.58000000&hc=0.00) it shows 180$ profit / month ?! is it real ? Forget it :D. It's just momentum income extrapolated to whole month Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: 0xcosmos on December 20, 2017, 05:23:28 PM i will still recommend to go with gtx1070
it is a really good card and it can mine a lot of coins btw how much you are paying for these gpus? Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ?

It's only your decision. Mining coin that you believe better gpu in term of makin profit i need the coin with more profit & Compatibility Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: candy69 on December 20, 2017, 07:54:31 PM You can do with both. But RX 470 would be cheaper. If you want to invest a big amount, I suggest you go for GTX 1070.
Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: waikey on December 20, 2017, 08:07:20 PM 470, 580 is better for me... but better you have water cool system!
I use AMD card to mine Monero and other cryptonight coins! and GTX1070, only for game now... Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: fabiolic on December 20, 2017, 08:12:52 PM I have a GTX 1050 and "free" electricity. Any coin suggestion that is more profitable and a step by step guide to set up?
Thanks. Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: prometheus_project on December 20, 2017, 08:26:36 PM the 1070 ti is my favourite card. 33mhs + on ethash. the mining edition -> nvidia p104-100
Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: Tanhdoit on December 20, 2017, 09:28:20 PM I have 2 Rigs with Rx 470 and Ive been mining Ether and Monero since early 2017 and its been profitable beyond belief. I chose the Rx470 specifically because I wanted to mine only Ether and Monero and you'll definitely get more out of your dollar with it. Take it from me, just visit www.whattomine.com and you'll see the different coins you can mine and GPU you decide to use. Again, this is my own opinion but I usually get 24Mh/s with ether and 500h/s with Monero. Happy Mining! Also, look at your local power company and see how much they charge per K/W. My electric bill shot up almost 160% after I started mining. So yea, RX 470 hands down and MONERO.

I have bunch of RX480 rigs and even RX570.. GTX1070 will blow them per card for profit. GTX 1070 is better with equihash, Neoscrypt, Lararev2... Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: Jarixx on December 20, 2017, 10:51:44 PM With GTX you can mine more algo's.
It is pricier, but that is my pick. Title: Re: RX 470 or GTX 1070 Mining ? Post by: Cereberus on December 22, 2017, 01:34:27 PM 1070 is more profit per day definitely but more expensive. I have bunch of RX480 rigs and even RX570.. GTX1070 will blow them per card for profit. GTX 1070 is better with equihash, Neoscrypt, Lararev2... Doubt GTX 1070 would do same amount as a RX 570 with bios mod mining Monero. Ethereum will only do about 1 Mhs more per card and that is not guaranteed, dual mine will do the same, the only algorithm where GTX 1070 is better is the Equihash algorithm and will surpass every RX 5xx series. The price is much more expensive for 1070 cards so better to do a bios modification and spend way less for the same performance unless you want to explicitly mine only Zcash.

Neoscrypt, LyraREv2, Blake, LBRY, Groestl, X11, Pascal, Skunkhash 1070 can surpass bios modded RX480, RX570 in ethash and neck and neck with Cryptonight. I have 1070 here and bios modded Rx570.. 1070 is more robust card for mining. |
