Hi all,

what you guys think would be best; mining rig with mixed GPUs (GTX 1070 + GTX 1080 Ti) or would be more simple to run without issues (drivers conflicts etc) with only 1 model of GPU (all GTX 1070). I am looking to buy 8 new GPUs for my mining rig which would make me a mining rig of 12 GPUs running on Win10 x64.

Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm running 1x1070 1x1070ti et 2x1060 3gb on the same rig, never had any problems.  Wink

But buying new gpus right now, at least in the usa isn't a good idea.

I have 8 x 1070 Ti plus a 3gb 1060 on the end. Looks weird.  Cheesy

The challenges I see is that, how to manage the 12 GPU's worked flawlessly, though I seen some users able to get this done and in Youtube, however this is a bit uneasy thing to do, depends on hardware do you have starting with motherboard, PSU, Risers, memory. one thing, we are in a GPU shortage right now, you will be lucky enough to get these GPU's in a fairly price.

Hey man,

I just built an nvidia rig. All 1060s. And one of them died within seconds. So I have a 1070 in its place. The rig runs fine with no issues. Ive also done a really mixed card rig on AMD before with a 290x, a few RX 4/500's, and a Vega 64. That rig had some stability issues. But the mixed card rig on nvidia that I just built hasnt had a problem at all.

Any idea of where youre going to buy the cards?
