Does ETH works with bitcoin-qt wallet and bfgminer ?
Apparently not; http://cryptomining-blog.com/5323-quick-guide-on-how-to-mine-ethereum-on-windows/

Hello, i want to start mining, tell me please
I already broke my brain ) What to choose
2x 1070
or
3x 480/580 8gb
or
3x1060 6gb

What coin are you looking to mine?

you could go:

3x 480/580 8gb or 3x 470/570 8gb if you want to mine ETH or XMR

or 2x 1070 or 3x1060 6gb if you want to mine ZEC or LBC

also I would recommend making 6x gpu rigs as you will get more hash for your $.  

Hello, thank you for answer!  I am searching  for the  most situable variant for now and near future to build 4-6 rig with time . I think that 1070 is more powerfull and effective, isnt't it ?

But if isn't no difference in  profit between 1070 and 580\480 ...
I will take more cheaper gp .

It depends on how expensive your power is.  Mine is rather expensive.

currently:

my 6x 1070 rigs mining ZEC generate $420 a month - elec costs each ( rigs cost ~$2500 each)

my 6x 1060 rigs mining ZEC generate $297 a month - elec costs each ( rigs cost ~$1900 each)

for AMD I only have one 4x 470 (all with custom roms) rig mining ETC (note ETC is abnormally high right now).  It generates $293 a month - elec costs ( rig cost $1150)

Hi, i have two rigs
first rig is 7 x 1070
second rig is 6 x rx470

with both of above i can mine about 10.3 ETH permonth.

looking at your comment if i switch to mine ZEC i will gain more on 1070 rig ?

At current rates you would be projected to generate $572 a month mining ZEC with optimal OC on 7x 1070s.

Edit: I just checked and for the first time in a very long time it looks like its actually more profitable to be mining ETH with 1070s.  But ZCL or HUSH still are better.

definitely not bad at all

I'm running tests on a brand new EVGA GTX 1070 SC, alongside an ASUS GTX 970 Strix Both are OC's, but I get this message even running on normal setup. Driver is 382.05, OS is W7. I was mining with 2 x GTX 970, and never had this issue before.

 Mind sharing your soft setup for each coin you have tried on your nvidias?  (perhaps sample of CMD /keys /pool) thanks

I shared my OS  :  see nvOC OP with this link.  You can also download my bashscript ( oneBash ) directly which has all of this information.

this link shows the instantaneous revenue for 1x 1070

 - Comrade, that's impressive! (nvoc)
 
p.s. for whattomine.com - it be nice if they would of updated their hardware and especially option for KH/MH/GH  buttons(switchable)
Thanks again, nice info, just got done with full thread.
p.p.s - both sample videos for some reason are not playing, page says loading forever...on chrome,ie,vivaldi

Thanks,

I don't think WTM is perfect, but it can be useful.  I tend to be contrarian with the WTM top 10.  If I had perfect attentiveness I would always mine the top 10 coin with the lowest relative diff; but most of the time I'm too lazy and just Leave my rigs on ZEC.  Eventually I will write a script or program to do this for me.

You should be able to download videos if they aren't playing via google.  I was just uploading an image so maybe they were limiting the IO on my account (so much for unlimited).

In nicehash, they do coin switching.

Nicehash profit switching closely follows the instantaneous profitability of coins; and not the minimum difficulty of the top 10 coins: so it wouldn't help me.

i want to buy some 1070s ,
did anyone tried dual mining ethr+sia with 1070?

Yep, I'm currently doing some testing of different -dcri settings in Claymore miner with a 1070…

Code:

dcri  ETH       SC
32    29.2Mh/s  310MH/s
48    29.0Mh/s  465MH/s
56    28.7Mh/s  535MH/s
64    28.2MH/s  600MH/s

This isn't taking power consumption into account, just getting some baseline benchmarks

hi guys!

I have a 7 gpu GTX 1070 rig (Gaming X from MSI with Micron memories) .
Having some issues when trying to OC these . (I have a few rigs on AMD cards and this is first on NVidia)
OS - Win 10 Anniversary and driver 369.09
Default I get - 25.6 mh in Claymore and 25.8 in Genoil miner

Problems in Claymore : if I start miner in default card speeds and OC while it runs I can get it at 30-31mh/card and it runs without issues but in case of a restart it crashes with these settings ( +600mem ) . It only starts at around +325 oc for memory ... I haven't touched anything else

Problems in Genoil : it takes age for the miner to start . If I plung in only one card .. it works very fast . At 4 cards it takes 10 minutes to start hasing and with 7 god knows how long .

No idea about linux .

Any suggestions ?

Better to use NVidia Inspector for tweaks ?

How come you are using such an old driver version?

First time I rand Claymore I had the latest driver and I was mining at 2.5mh / card
I found an old thread where people said about this driver and used .
What driver would you suggest ?

read genoils answer for that 1080 problem;

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/962406/gtx-1080-very-bad-result-for-mining/
------------------------------------------------
GENOIL SAYS,
Hey Etar/Etayson,

No, neither Claymore nor myself were able to fix it using C++. The fix is in Pascal + WDDM2.1 + right drivers.

Going by the reports, it seems that the random read bug fix (more or less known over here as the TLB trashing issue) works better for GDDR5 than for GDDR5X. Or the people reporting such low numbers to you just haven't got the right combination of OS/drivers.

But the GDDR5X issue is something different. Even on Linux, where the TLB trashing is not happening at current memory allocation sizes for the algorhitm in question, we get only about 22MH/s hashrate, equivalent to about 55% of theoretical max. bandwidth, whereas the 1070 does about 27MH/s, which is about 84%.

I did a bit of research into this a while ago and I can't remember whom I was discussing this with back then, but at the time we were speculating about the GDDR5X being stuck in DDR mode instead of the new QDR, effectively halving the memory bandwidth. This was pretty much in line with the measurements.

Ultimately, there's not so much you can do about this.
------------------------------------------------

main problem is :

Both 1070/1080 have 8 memory controllers (each is 32-bit wide = 4 bytes)
1070 > GDDR5 @ 2000 MHz - 8n prefetch (over 2 memory cycles) = 8*4 = 32 bytes in a 2 cycle transaction (or 2000*4 per cycle= 8 GHz)
1080 > GDDR5x @ 1251 MHz - 16n prefetch (over 2 memory cycles) = 16*4 = 64 bytes in a 2 cycle transaction (or 1251*8 per cycle=10 GHz)

[stef_stef]

From what I can read the 1070 does 430 sols at 120W on ZEC, and the 1050ti does 180sols at around 55W.


Am I correct?


Also, between the asus turbo 1070 and the gigabyte g1, which one is better? The asus is a bit cheaper

[CoinFacker]

Mm, when you look at nicehash calc you see a 1070 has a day profit of 130$ and a 1080ti 195$?
There is 65$ a cart difference! 

A 1080 is about 300$ more expensive so that rig needs 5 months to be break even with the initial setup cost, but from there on it produces 65$ MORE every month per card!
If you are running 6  cards that is about 4680$ a year!  Minus some extra power costs! about 1000$.

so the 1080ti's still look to be the best profit makers!

[Nokia555]

Hi,

I have 1080TI (http://mylifegadgets.com/GTX1080TI) doing about 915mh/s skein, about 10-12$ per day. Also i have GTX1080 (http://mylifegadgets.com/GTX1080) doing about 7-8$ per day. Both use the same 180W from wall, so i would suggest TI-s but if you get really low price for 1080 i would go with it.

[ApxuBbI]

Simple question here.
Can one 1070 card make at least 100 euro profit in one month? (Electricity cost 0.06 EUR/kWh, but I will multiply x2, because there is additional costs)
Asking because there is a lot "calculators", and the results are pretty different, from 100 to 200.

Thank you...
