Old GPU the best for free electricity?

[Refrumatrix]

Gtx1060 and P106-100 are still a good GPU to buy for mining if one has free electricity? What about gtx1070 and 1080? I have free electricity in my home right now and I want to take good advantage of this opportunity 😜😜

If you got free electricity, anything is fine. Get the cheapest GPU that produces best hash power.

What are the prices of that GPU's? Without knowing the prices, we can't say anything about them.

Since their power consumption is not going to be an issue, what matters is their prices.

Free electricity? Get used GPUs instead as there is no reason to buy brand new GPU for mining, go for 1060 and Rx Vega 56/64 GPUs there are many for sales of them on Craigslist and from Alibaba website, you can even buy few old ASIC miners like T2

If that is the case grab some GTX 1080 ti and run them at full power,you can get them for like 500 EUR/600 USD right now and they will give you like 45 Mhsh in Ethereum or 55 Mhsh in Ethereum Classic when they run at full power.This is the best old GPU for me and I believe also for many others as is first produced on March 2017 and still relevant in mining nowadays.

At the op

I have some 1080ti evga and or msi hybrid cards.

I am usa based make me an offer.

All video cards that you wrote are very old. I have been using 1060,1070,1080 for 5 years now, but I service to them myself and know their condition. The main problem when purchasing these video cards will be finding these video cards in good condition. If you don't have experience, then you can buy buggy junk.
Each video card needs to be checked before purchasing for at least 10-20 minutes. Ideally, a few hours, but usually you will not be allowed to do this.

Exactly, it's why I use someone in China to source for GPUs for me, they do the testing on my behalf and do the shipping too, buying used cards far away from you is dangerous, I changed my mind since I bought a Vega 56 that died on me the same day

depend that free electric is from solar/turbin or got from stealing/gifted, for generated electric use the most efficient gpu right now, and most likely rtx 3000 series from broken laptop is the one

but for otherwise use asic is doable and less take space than gpu rigs

Can you pls explain what you meant by free electricity? If you are t using wind or solar it means you are stealing electricity, as far as I'm concerned there isn't any such thing as free electricity and the more GPU you use the more you get yourself exposed, stay away from such act
