Dual .mining with correct dcri was always profitable on 1080/ti. Because 1080/ti has a lot of cpu power which is not used by daggerhasimoto algo.
Only if by "profitable" you mean more then the electricity cost)
No I mean that it have +/- the same profit as zec or other algos.

I don't have 1080 ti, but as it use GDDR5X it should be the same as for 1080 I guess = not for ETH mining
That's why I asked him about 1060, because Nvidia is not "neck and neck" to ETH. Only low end cards are.
On 1080/ti Zcash and Signatum are 70-80% more profitable (or a little less if compared to dual with decred).

It's closer to 40% slower or a 1070 is 40% faster. That's based off raw CUDA cores. Just off the top, this holds true in Skunk. A 1060 3GB is producing 19 while top results for a 1070 are 32. Which is almost exactly 40% increase. That's from Yiimp. Half as fast was a typo, I meant 50% (but it's closer to 40%).

19 x 1.5 is 28.5. The 40% slower is straight from the difference in cuda cores.

1080/ti both have issues with algos due to their GDDR5X memory. Even algos that they work 'properly' in they don't always get the full speed. You can look at Epsylons thread for more information on that. I had to hammer out a couple really big posts about it and rather not rehash that here. Either way the 1080/ti are bad buys, especially the TIs which have much higher power draw and coolers generally can't keep up with them, in addition to the increased system power draw that requires much more beefy PSUs. They're practically worthless in Dagger. For instance a 1080ti should routinely be 85% faster then a 1070 for the amount of CUDA cores it has, but rarely is and often is closer to 50% depending on the algo.

Best buy still is a 1070, even at the slightly higher prices they have currently.
1) Skunk 1060 6GB ~21, 1070 ~31 1080 ~41
21*1.5 = 31.5
21*2 =42
Straight forward.

2) 1080/ti have issues only with dagger-hashimoto algo. I don't know other. Other algos are like skunk.

3) Your maths is completely wrong
1060 - 115W 21Mh = 5.5W/Mh

1080 - 165W 41Mh = 4W/Mh


Of course you can tweak both of them gaining more or less, but anyway 1080 is superior in w/MH

4) 1080/ti are practically worthless only in 1 algo, but thanks to Claymore they are good in Dual mining leaving 1060/1070 far behind (of course it depends on second coins price). Most other algos don't need fast memory.

So right for the moment 1080 is the best choice because they cost only ~20-25% more than 1070.

Currently you can make as much dual mining with a 1070 eth+dcr as you can mining Zcash. Actually you make a little bit more. This goes back to earlier discussion I had in this thread about 1080/tis being a bad investment.

That really depends.  If you're building a bunch of rigs with lots of cards, then yes.  The 1080Ti is a bad investment.  But so is the 1070.  The 1060 is really the king of the Hash/Watt/Price formula.

If you have 1-8 gpu's in a single rig, then you want to get the maximum performance you can from that rig, and while you may pay more for those 1080Ti's, you're getting enough hashing power to actually see some results.

I did some calculations, and the 1080Ti's isn't nearly as bad as most people think, particularly if you're mining profitable algorithms that benefit from the extra power (which Eth doesn't).  And since ETH has huge difficulty bombs coming, there is no point whatsoever optimizing for Eth.

According to my calculations, the 1080 is actually the worst in terms of $/Watt.

In the Equahash Hash/$ category, the $199 10603G does 1.3567839196 Hashes per dollar, while the 1070 does 1.0023310023 Hashes per dollar and the 1080Ti does 0.8366271410 Hashes per dollar.  But, the 1080Ti generates 635H/s and the 1070 only generates 430.  If I only have a few cards, I want to maximize my profit, not my averages.

P.S. There is a much larger gap between 1060 and 1070 Hash/$ than there is between 1070 and 1080

1060 is too small. While a 1070 isn't as good hash/$, it's consistently 2x as fast as a 1060. 1080/tis all have issues with different algos, even ones they work 'well' in they don't always scale to their full potential due to GDDR5 X. A 1070 does. It's not all about hash/$.

There are other coins that are huge that also use Dagger. Dagger, which Ethereum uses, isn't particular JUST to Ethereum. Furthermore they announced they're pushing back PoS again. Dagger will remain an important part of the mining community at least for another 1 1/2 to 2 years. I'm one of the first people who pointed out impending doom of Ethereum's difficulty hike, since then they've continually pushed it back.

Taking that once again a bit further, since Dagger, specifically Ethereum is such a huge hash sink, when it starts going down hill it will take all the other coins and algos with it. When something else becomes more profitable, people will go to the other more profitable coins. Which is why I always talk about Zcash for Nvidia, as that's where everyone ends up. It's the same thing only on a bigger scale when it comes to Ethereum. No GPU coin is safe when it comes to the Ethereum winter, which is why dagger performance will always be important.
Are u sure? 1060 vs 1070 is 1 vs 1.5 in almost everywhere. Excluding Eth mining, where it is only 1 vs 1.25

With todays prices 1080 is much better than 1070. And it is 1080 that is 2x of 1060. Except Eth mining.

Please get this coin listed somewhere else. Cryptopia is a total ripoff. They charge 0.0008 BTC to move your bitcoin off the exchange and into your private wallet. Poloniex only charges 0.0001 BTC. At BTC=$4200, that's a $3.36 fee from Cryptopia but only $0.42 fee from Poloniex. What a scam...
Buy altcoin on cryptopia , transfer to another exchange , sell altcoin, transfer BTC to wallet. U can even earn some in this operation.

I see that you finally managed to make diff setting based on Rig hashrate.
Thank you. Good job.  Smiley

P.S. Still some finetuning is possible:
As I understand 100+Mh - get 0.97
And lower HR get 0.28 or 0.56 (70+Mh?)
Still 5*1060 and 6*1080 get the same 0.97diff but it is 107MH/s vs 242MH/s difference.
IMHO something like this is more adequate:
>150 = 0.96
>100 = 0.64
>70 = 0.32
>20 = 0.16
<20 = 0.08

the max difficulty target on the lodiff port is capped at 0.97 ...

the reason is that MANY have single card and dual card systems ...

if you need to go to the hidiff port - just remove the --lodiff parameter ... and any of the netdiff / temp control parameters ... you will find a smoother run and better processing for the gpus ...

being a vardiff stratum also - there is no manual control of the diff for the miner ... as the stratum controls that side of it ...

whereas hashrate will not be affected with difficulty of shares being processed ...

so i dont understand what the issue is with your two machines getting different hashrates ... they need to - as they are different cards pointing in the same port capped at 0.97diff ... the hidiff port goes all the way up to 7diff - as we had to cap that to 7diff from 7000diff ... that port is something that will test your systems Wink ...

#crysx
I think you understood me completely wrong.
I mean that 0.97 for 6*1080 is fine (242Nh). 0.97 for 6/1070 is OK (180Mh)
But 0.97 for 5*1060 (107Mh) is not OK because - too rare shares ->big fluctuations in hashrate on the pool.
0.56 for 2*1080 (76) is not OK because no shares for 5 minutes is not OK in any way. The Rig is even lost from pool. (take a look at the picture I posted)
That's why I posted my vision for diff levels for different hashrates.

You ideas are good. But what had to be done a week ago is finetuning of difficulty setting on the pool. Still everyone get 0.97diff - it is better then 2.5 but I don't like to see that picture with no shares for 4 minutes (actually more)
https://ibb.co/nC6u1a
I really don't understand what is difficult in doing that.

The miner is stable as it is. Hashrate is what to be improved (if you can do that) as far as the clock of POW tik-tak-tik-tak.

I get very strange power usage on DNR
https://ibb.co/nfHyBa
https://ibb.co/neR3cF
2 identical GPU, same clocks, same hashrate.
No I don't have them. Only intensity is set.
I have the same string on all rigs. 1060 are almost a line. 1070 and 1080 1080ti fluctuates

i bet you are using netdiff / temp control parameters ...

take them off and see it process then ...

#crysx
No I don't have any extra parameters, only intensity setting.

Why not to mine the most profitable coin for the moment.

i may be idiot, but i dont care about day profit, for the moment , i dont pay electricity , and my 1080ti was free, so no ROI to think about. I just want to accumulate coins , i feel i am working and not a lazy guy  Grin Grin
I'm also waiting for my second 1080ti next week
So. Whats wrong with holding sigt? It has the same chances to go up as any other coin, or even better.

Signatum is even trying get to the top spot in whattomine.com's most profitable coin to mine. As of this writing, it is in the top 3. For a brief moment awhile ago, it was number 1. If SIGT breaks 2k satoshi convincingly, we'll see it at number one. This is a good exposure for the coin. Unfortunately for long time SIGT miners, fewer coins for us.

Iit's up and away the most profitable to mine for nvidia on there

Too bad no one will know it from the estimated hashing, muahahaha
Oh yes - the'd better put 23 for 1070 and 33 for 1080. So we'll get more coins.  Grin

and THIS one is the new:  https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases/download/v2.2-tpruvot/ccminer-x64-2.2.7z  -> 4 days ago
this last one is very good doing around 30-31MH/s on GTX1070 (core +100) and very stable

Thanks for the link, I think I haven't tried this new version yet. Anyone can tell what hashrate can be expected with a GTX 1080 using this version?

Ti gets about 55-56 so... 45-47?
No. 40-42 is correct answer.

Hi guys,

I'm back to mining after a break of 2 years. I haven't my complete rig right now, but have received 2 GTX 1070 already. I have then put a 1070 in my actual desktop computer in order to find the best compromise between hashrate and power consumption, and here is the details of what I have achieved :

Specs :

- Windows 10 x64
- Inno3D GTX 1070 3X Edition 8 Go
- CCminer-krlnx by tpruvot@github
- Drivers 384.94 WHQL (the last ones available)

Actually minning with : 26.1 Mh/s @ 80W = 334.08 hashes per watt
=> Core clock : 1800 Mhz (+125 Mhz)
=> Memory clock : 3700 Mhz (-400 Mhz) - it seems Skein algo doesn't care of Memory clock
=> Power scaling at 50%.
=> GPU Temp at 52°C, in a 27°C room  Wink

Higher hashrate possible if not taking into account the power usage : 31.5 Mh/s @ 152W = 212.21 hashes per watt, GPU temp at 70°C

Question : do you think that these are proper results? or maybe can I tweak it a little bit more? Any advice?

Thanks for reading.
Yes yes. Put it lower lower lower. So we will get more coins  Grin

How to mine this coin?
pallas miner - can't find binary.
djm34 miner crashes once in 3-5 minutes - don't know why - other miners work smoothly on the same rigs, if miner didn't crashed then suprnova pool is having troubles on hourly basis. I've mined 7000+XCN but that was not easy to accomplish with such problems

So, how can I mine with nvidia GPU rigs flawlessly?
Any help is appreciated.

WTH does sp's mods use 100% CPU?  All other miners I've used only use about 30% total.  What's the deal here?  Why is "System" using 30% of the CPU?
Bad coding.
Use CWI - 0-1%CPU usage, like this:
