at this point i would wait for vega from amd, big chip amd 580 and fury pro, they will have better hash, due to better bandwidth and bus speed, and lower consumption
it's due this december or early 2017

Update this thread .
just use whattomine, it say etheruem the most profitable for nvidia and amd is on par with zcash but zcash has more potential to grow so it's better to mine that with amd Which is incorrect, the hashrate for nvidia is wrong on whattomine for Zcash  Also why do you think Zcash has more potential to grow? As it seems for me it is very overpriced compared to other cryptos. because it's brand new and the hype is still there, and remember that at least one coin per year will be pumped regardless of the marketcap, the price or anything else i'm getting nearly the same as whattomine say with zcash(0.1 zcash daily with 6 x1070 hashing at 740 sol), so i dunno where you see that is wrong |

Off topic
Hi, I currently have 3 GTX 1070 and 3 GTX 750ti, I have decided to change two GTX750 ti`s, my doubt is for which GPU to change
2 GTX 1050ti 4GB
1 GTX 1060 6G
or make the effort and buy a GTX1070, I hope someone can guide me
Thanks!
*sorry for my english
Best bet is to go AMD right now. Nvidia really doesn't have any upsides until Equihash gets figured out and we start hitting a wall on hash speed, then efficiency starts to matter more. That being said, with a rig that small, I'd go for 1060s though, they'll probably be more in your price range and density isn't a issue. Thanks! This is a good point, AMD at the moment seems a more logical option maybe I should reconsider and look for some amd although I plan to give Nvidia a chance since the other GPU`s are all Nvidia. amd only cost less but profit is the same on etheruem between a 480 and a 1070, actually a 1070 is a little better, but it cost double and since zcash is no longer so profitable, you can't count on that |

it's a scam because right now you can not have ratio 1:1 between hash and wattage, more like 1:4, so that thing consume 6kw, and will never roi
and you are advertising it, seeing how you are newbie

The cards are a bit too close for my taste and there's a lot of vertical space wasted but it does look good.
I agree. I did an experiment about 3 years ago and found that the optimal distance between GPUs was 2.5x the width of the GPU. The cards were all dual fan 7970s and 280xs. It may be different with your cards. However, I can suspect that supplemental cross-cooling will be needed more than the picture displays. i disagree the distance mean not too much if you are going to put 3 fan in front for pushing air between them, actually it's better to have them close enough to make the tunnel effect better It really depends on the directions the cards pulling air from and pushing air to. In my experience high airflow between cards is worse than cards having space to pull air from (Windforce 3x). i tested it and in any case is still better to add fan between the gpu, without those fan no matter what space you have in summer you will suffer from high temps |

there is no need to use dual psu anymore, one 1000w is fine for all the current gpu generation, they consume far less than old generation card
you need to keep in mind that from now gpu will consume less and less, so bulky psu are useless and expensive, and not needed anymore
just stick with 1000w psu

i think there can be some cpu limitation with many gpu but i'm not sure, i see that with my gaming rig i have better result, but it can be perhaps the motherboard that need to handle multiple gpu
still the difference is negligeable so i would avoid spending more

Optiminer builds no longer available due to people circumventing the absurd devfee for subpar miner, lolz.
i guess this is not possible with clymore right? so it was something that optiminer did wrong with his fee in his build Alright, coding is done. I need to tweak parameters quite a bit to get optimal performance, though.
I will keep you guys updated.
200 sol per 1070 coming? |

I agree, this motherboard is quite old and unavailable locally. I still wonder why nobody made a similar board for the 1151 socket.
because asrock tought mining was dead after the boom of 2014 with doge, so they didn't bother anymore there is a great demand for this MB so it's a bit expensive now, but you can still easily find it on ebay and amazon |

cloud are known to be either a scam or unprofitable, there is no roi there ever, because if you can profit from them it mean that they are losing money
the other way around it mean that you are losing

I think those cables should theoretically support more SATA connections than what they have connectors for, but what are you planning to connect to them? SATA drives?
Only GPU, rx 470 nitro. But as the cable fried so now I am confused if they can handle 3 GPU's on 1 cable.... better not, i would do 1 cable for one gpu , they can sustain around 50w, that's why your cable fried |

Just tried optiminer for the first time sense it's in windows form now, it didn't come close to claymore or was about 30 solo slower then Claymore. and there paying 15 % for that lol . SA all most matches optiminer version and it's free . SO I'll wait for the rewrite of SA under windows, i got a feeling it's going to out do Claymore or stand with it . i read some place Claymore's next version will be even faster. Mybad it's the Pool I'm using if I use Fly pool with optiminer version it is all most as fast as claymore, sense i like using antminers zcash pool because it is a PPS payout . I'll stick with things the way they are sense claymore and SA both let me use stratum+tcp:// with no deceases in speed or let me use stratum+tcp:// in the address that seems to actually matter pool wise and claymore or SA don't need to use the CPU it seems optiminer is using . IF you think about it SA is better it's supports both NV and AMD. CM and optiminer only support AMD . CM 8.0 just came out and it still only supports AMD . Claymore has openly stated he is concentrating on AMD over everything else. i doubt at this point, he can manage to squeeze even more hash from amd, he is already there at the maximum, any additional hash would be negligeable not to mention it would mean nothing because everyone would have a better speed |

they should just add the possibility to mine without directly dumping for btc, on their website, so you don't use your btc address but your zcash address pretty much like yiimp or other pool akin

Yeah you don't get those speeds on normal cards. People really need to stop quoting their bleeding edge OCs as 'what you get'. in fact I get 240 sols with little trick. Well, 90% tdp of my SJS thow ... Yup where are the OC numbers? You're using a awful lot more power. 90% TDP with a 8+6 pin card isn't the same as 90% with a 8pin card. They read things differently. It is a 8 pin card with 170watt tdp bios. OC is 2135/2375@1.05v But you won't get 240 only with this ... only 230 ... you need to apply small trick to get some extra and + 6-7% tdp extra power usage with the same clocks which is strange, must be because of the brand because i can't even dream to reach 2375 with the core and that voltage/tdp |

Anyone mixing 970 + 1070's in 1 rig?
I'm mixing: rig 2x970 + 2x1070 = 660-670 Sol rig 4x970 = 635-661 Sol rig 1x960 + 1x980 = 213-234 Sol solo 960 = 59-61 Sol solo 970 = 143-144 Sol solo 980 = 159-166 Sol solo 1070 = 188-189 Sol all running under eqm_v1.0.2b_Win64 P.S. i'm not 100% sure, but looks eqm_v1.0.2a SolRate was better, even eqm_v1.0.2a falls at a poor connections Mine doesn't display what cards are doing what hashrate. Only the total hashrate. But I'm still using v1.0.2a. b version is the same it does not display single card just the total hash, i dunno if they fixed the crash and the other bug with it, but i see something strange when mining with this miner my gpu fan spin faster for a short time than return to normal, really annoying... |

only getting 118 sols on gtx 1070s with mem oc of 300 and core clock oc of 220 any ideas ? using the latest windows binaries
gtx 970 is great 80 sols
depend on the model try to underclock the mem, with soem model it is mroe beneficial to underclock, to 502, in my case i'm getting more hash than ocing |
