At the moment I'm getting 19 and about 280-290 sols  on gigabyte windforce oc 3gb hynix memory

Sounds awesome, is this overclocked and stuff?

How is that awesome? Hynix chips are the worst on 1060s. 19 MH/s with Hynix memory is most likely "overclocked and stuff", at usual stock clocks it's ~ 17-18 MH/s. You can easily get 22-23 MH/s with Micron chips and 23-25 MH/s with Samsung chips. Equihash is faster with Samsung and Micron too, it's not as memory dependent as Dagger, but still benefits from faster vram.

Zotac GTX 1060- 6 cards

Ethereum- 141 mh/s, PL 65%, fan 40%, 535w @wall
Equihash- 1720 sol/s, PL 66%, fan 40% 550w @wall
XMR- 3100 mh/s, PL 99% fan, 40% 410w @wall

I think these are micron. Haven't really checked. Cant mine stable past, +150 core +685 mem. I was really impressed by how efficient they were at mining XMR. My system idles at 80w, which means the cards were drawing only 330w. 55w for 520mh/s is very nice! 23.5mh/s for eth @75w isnt that bad. Can get it higher to around 24.3mh/s but i think i had to up the PL to 80%. Equihash gives me around 1720 sol/s at 66% which averages out to about 286 mh/s at around 80w a card. These get even more efficient at 50% PL but I think were mining at around the 1500sol/s.

(2)Asus ROG Strix GTX 1060- 6 cards

Equihash-1920 sol/s, PL 65%, fan 45%, 665w @wall.

These are a bit less power efficient but are able to mine equihash at a higher rate than the zotacs. Havent tested ethereum or xmr yet. These were for sure microns, they can go up to +150 core, and around +550+600 mem before they get unstable. I do plan to test them for other algorithms later.

What's the typical ROI on these cards? Are they worth getting over then rx480s?

A 1060 6gb with Samsung RAM does around 0.125 Eth/month. That is about 32 USD/month after deducting electricity. Non Samsung does around 0.1 Eth/month and probably bring in about 26 USD.
I calculate something like ~7 months for 3Gb ~9 months for 6Gb for Samsung, 9-11 months for non Samsung.

Hi Guys...

some tricks or some else to improve the Nicehash Miner 2.0.1.3 mining profitably? I don't know if I can keep the same settings as per ETH Nanopool mining or if some extra core or memory must be considered.
Any Advice?

Thank you

[FallenFromMoon]

Tried to search on different topics and blogs and couldn't find exact results.

So, what is the hashrate of GTX 1060 on different algos? Especially on Ether.

my msi 1060 6gb with hynix memory ~18.3mh/s
+100 core
+550 memory

Manually mine it in the meantime if there are no answers about it.

Maybe a few google searchs will help you.

If you increase your core and memory and it increases your hashrate, then it would increase the hashrate on Nicehash too. The only difference is if one pool or the other (or nicehash) has different payment methods, or less down time, etc.

Is it more profitable to mine btg with a 1060? Someone already tried?

[matthewtherry]

I can't go up than 20 mhs with 1060. I have tried overclock on windows but max 20 mhs...

Hashrate on BCG is insane. However, it is an equihash algo. You want to go for low difficulty coins if you want to be extremely profitable.

Is it more profitable to mine btg with a 1060? Someone already tried?

I have BTG mining SOLO, and on EWBF & CCMINER

It's all the same 1060 3 & 6 GB cards about 300 sols/sec ( equihash )

The difficulty right now on testnet is 45,000, its reporting about 5 days for luck

When I target a RIG at BTG ( pool.gold or solo ) at +2k sols/sec, my  luck goes to 0.3 days, I get paid out in 'testnet' but it never shows up on the bgold-cli "getbalance" or on there 'explorer' because NONE of the BTCGPU software works, its all a pile of shit, a poorly deployed BTC clone, the developers are chinese ASIC guys who don't know C++.

mining bitcoinz(equihash) or bitcore(timetravel 10) is the most profitable now
