What do you say guys GTX 1060 or wait for AMD 480 ?

Wait one week for RX 480

Ok will do it thanks mate

1060 is better, can mine many good algo, not just ethereum, if you have the private miner optimized for everything then ok, 480 is a choice

Unfortunately i dont have access to private miners. İ just want to make rig with 6 Gpu s. So 6 nvidia or 6 amd. Difficult question, cant decide..

I'm going to build a second rig with 5 GPUs

All is clear for me - RX 480. Aftermarket cards with improved cooling and 8 pins power

İ see but why dont you use 6 GPU s ? İs it more difficult to build ? Do you get more problems with 6 GPU s ?

absolutely no problem here, running six 1070 on a h81 pro btc and 1000w psu, there is no reason to run 5 only

I have money on 5 cards only

Looks like very strong argument

Thanks mate. One more question. i dont have access to many mb like you guys ( İ live in Turkey). So no h81 pro btc for me. İ can only buy the newer ones.
Could you list me a few MB for a 6 GPU rig, would be very nice. Thanks.

We just can make opinion without real riset and experience, because the product are not available on markets, so we can not compare them which are the best. Let's wait and see until there are people who use the product.

I'm going to build my next rig on this one:
ASRock ATX DDR3 1066 LGA 1150 Motherboard H97

It is not confirmed to be better at more algorithms. In the thread it is mostly speculation suggesting it would perform in a certain range based on the GTX 1070 with some confirmed hash rates below the estimated predictions. It is just LBRY and neoscrypt hash rates reported so far, excluding ether. If that same trend should be reliable for more algorithms than it would be a stable card

I ultimately want whatever card I can hook up to my regular desktop for now and have put to work mining whenever I am not using it (which is most of the time since my labtop does the daily web work). The GTX 1070 falls short by not mining well on Windows although the versatility of the 1070 is appealing. I have not seen enough on the GTX 1060 to warrant me getting it. When Ether does go POW and mining ends, I will also have to count on the other coins not being overloaded by all the eth hash power migrating over.

This person observed the PCB to the ASUS Strix 480

This may be the best version of the RX480 available. The PCIe draw is limited to just the VRM and fan only which is less than what most cards draw from the PCIe. This card will also have memory voltage control where all the others do not which would allow for greater memory overclocks (I think he means easy modding, easy is better than a hassel). Instead of 6 phase power, it is 6+2 which may help for efficiency, and higher OC.

This may be the RX480 to break 30 on Ether, maybe hit 32

i have seent he pro-G it's identical to the h81 pro btc, or the h97 anniversary

you can add lyra2v2, and lyra2, also on win 7 and 10 the 1070 run very well no issue so far, all algo are performing at their best

the 480 on the other hand, can only mine very well ethereum, which is not so profitable anymore

You swayed me to the 1070. This whole ETC vs. ETH thing makes me question the health of ethereum anyway. Agree with the fork or not I just feel that a vote was made and this ETC vs ETH thing should not have been a result.

It's a GTX 1070 for my main computer and depending on how Ethereum pans out by the time of the 470 release maybe I will make a dedicated rig for 470's if they turn out to have a better hash to watt efficiency
