A very bad GPU 😡

[batsonxl]

gtx1660 not very good option for mining. get 1660s or 1660ti

You are damn wrong, I have a rig with only 1660, I will drop the Hashrate I'm getting with each cards

1. Galax 25MH @ 47watt ( Samsung )
2. Asus 1660  24.67MH @ 60 watt ( Samsung )
3. Gigabyte 25.6MH @ 54watt (hynix)
4. Zotac 26MH @ 57watt (hynix)
5. MSI 25MH @ 56 watt ( hynix )

Silicon lottery wins on that Galax GPU, really impressive  so I'm guessing that maxsun is just a victim of poor silicon lottery lol, I think OP should try hiveOS there are others using this GPU and their settings are available, just try them out one after the other

Dude its 2021 year 20-25 mhs not interesting anymore. it was interesting in 2016.

To you they aren't interesting anymore, for me it's about the returns as I got this cards at a very cheap price from China, I'm glad I invested money in them and that's 125MH mate, the same hashrate that you can get from a RTX3090, how is this not freaking interesting? And for the fact that I pay less for the GPUs?

Buying 1660 for 300$ is not cheap. 5 cards=1500$.For this money you can get just 1 rtx3080 and get same results with less cards just 1 card. I bought 10 rx 480 8g for 600$+34$ shipping this one i call cheap and it delivers more than 300mhs for 600 bucks. I told many times but people are blind and buying. Do you have plan for those beasts when 125mhs=1$-1.5$ a day? Personally i had experience with 1060 with crappy hynix memories in bear market and got vary disappointed sold them all and got rx instead.

How the fuck did you get ten pieces of 480 8gb for 600$ ? From where actually? I bet that's not in this bull market must have been in the past years like 2018/2019, there is no way you can get such deal today but wow that's some good investment right there

Sigh! Can 3080 do 120MH? Cause 5x 1660 should be able to do 120-125MH so how is 3080 better? And more over where are you shopping your cards from? Bring shed light on this to safe use from buying GPUs at a very high price, getting 300MH for 600$ is just to unbelievable, I'd spend money to build 1GH this way easily

[Metroid]

Sigh! Can 3080 do 120MH?

3080 = 760 / 8 = 95mhs.

120 x 8 = 960, so, no.

3080 can do 105 max, even 100mhs 24/7 is not safe, that is extrapolating too much already from designed 95mhs, gddr6x is just crazy modified hot binned memory chip, 95 + 9.5/10% = 105mhs.

3070ti was designed to do 76mhs, 3080ti 114mhs and a 3090 117 out of the box, all 3070ti and 3080ti are lhr, so half of that = 3070ti 38mhs and 3080ti 57mhs.

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-3080.c3621

Want 24/7 safe mining? go for 3070 or 3060ti or even 6800, do not bother with gddr6x --> 3070ti, 3080, 3080ti or 3090.

If you have an ac controlled environment then by all means, gddrx6 is not bad but then again ac only works when there is a lot of profit --> bullrun, 30 to 50% increase in electricity bills to run a proper setup.

The issue here is that gpu manufactures dont put good thermal pads on memory and if you change it then you are in risk of losing warranty and that is a big thing, paying anything above 500 usd or more for a gpu and then no warranty is a big mistake. Truth is a gpu can stop working anytime and that will affect the roi of the investment as a whole.

Kinda mistake I did when I got my rtx3070ti instead of going for 3070, now I'm stuck with a GPU that only works fairly with kawpow mining, the temp is 57°C and memory temp is 92°C 24/7 mining, wish I can turn back the ends of time lol

3080 can only do 95MH @ 224watts
4x 1660 can do 100MH  @220watts
5x 1660 can do 125MH  @260-270watt

Bro just because a small card only do 24-25MH doesn't mean they are bad, combinations are better sometimes, RTX3080 is over 1500$ today so 5x 1660 for 1500$ still beats a RTX 3080

I bought from ebay there was alot. sapphire 480 8g with 2 fans and reference design for same price. He was selling lot 5 for 350$. I offered him to buy 10 if he can make 5 for 300$ he agreed and i got all 10 cards for 600$+34$ shipping. It was no so long i bought on ebay march or april 2020.
Later again i bought rx 470 4g mining edition for 65$ but just bought only 2 for fun.
There was so many p106 3g cards for 35$ i wanted some of them too but they dont have monitor output so did not buy that.

Hehe why you guys are so surprised lol? You all look member very old dont you track prices in 2019-2020? Now again everybody is not believing which is good. People buying it because they dont believe one day cards will be cheap again. It is good again people not believing it. In bear market people also dont believed that rx480 will be cost today 400-500$ if they knew would they sell it for 60$?

Im not saying it is bad card it just expensive for 300$ if it was ti or super ok 300$ but it is normal 1660 like 1060. When i remember 1060 i get angry if he said i got 1660 for 150$ then i could say ok but 300$ for that card is expensive. i sold all 1060 i had and changed them into polaris 8g cards and happy with and left money because 1060 was expensive than polaris.i have only 2 msi gtx 1070 left. i bought them for 200$ each still im saying it was expensive for that because i could get 2 polaris and get 60mhs instead 30 mhs

[Skinny48]

Batsonxl you got your cards in 2020 for cheaper rate,
 something that's not possible again this year that's why many don't believe you, they thought you just bought the cards, if I remember correctly rx580s are sold for less than 150$ in 2020 from China and no one thought that bull market is coming, the best time to buy GPU are in bear market honestly that's why I don't go all into GPU right now, I've prepared some cash for buying GPUs in bear market
