1080Ti Specific - Best mining option

[brownfly]

what do you think about Signatum NEW ?

mixed impression. I hoped that it will give opportunity to get a MN quickly, but advertising was so good - a lot of people rushed to mine it. Also block rewards is 10 coins and to collect 50,000 for a MN you need to mine many years. Too bad...

well, guys I have tested few days Zotac 1080Ti amp extreme vs some Palit gtx1080ti superjetstream
and I can say that Zotac really costs its money! love that card! absolutely cool and run @ 2050-2070 when palit runs @1999 and a 5-7 degrees hotter
so highly recommend especially if you can buy it as me for $730

All mine are zotac AE too. All thumbs up.
5 years local warranrt too. Even i accidentally broke the fan blade also got one to one exchange. Nothing to complaint!

isn't  the consumption to high

[crypsy]

All i use are the EVGA 1080ti SC.  Been super happy with them.  They run cool and have decent fans and if you ever have an issue EVGA is fast on returns, even hot swap returns. 

i have the hybrid sc2 and it's the best . 40-45 degrees , noiseless

GTX 1080ti is much more expensive and why GTX 1070ti is much better performance than GTX 1080?
How much honestly you guys bought GTX  1080ti?
I was planning to buy and budgeting my money if what is the best to buy GTX 1070ti or  gtx 1080ti interms of price and performance..

80ti- better than 70ti

What kind of hash rate and power consumption do you get for the 1080ti?

How does this compare to the 1070 and 1060?

Is running a six GPU rig feasible?

the same way the price compare

What would you mine if you have a single 1080Ti?

Would you prefer RX Vega 64 Liquid or 1080Ti for similar prices?

[wacko]

What would you mine if you have a single 1080Ti?

Same thing you'd mine with 10 or 50 of them. Whatever is more profitable at the moment. I'm mining BTX right now. There might be better coins out there though, skein algo was mentioned a couple of times here recently, and the power consumption on skein should be less than on BTX. 

Would you prefer RX Vega 64 Liquid or 1080Ti for similar prices?

Not an easy choice. On one hand 1080 Ti is just a more powerful GPU in general, and outperforms vega in gaming and most of the mining algos. On the other hand, cryptonight coins seem to be doing well and have been doing well for a bit.. long enough, actually, that I personally know a dude that has already ROId his water cooled Vega's. So, obviously for cryptonight vega is the king, and for ETH it's doing quite well as well. But then again, a water-cooled Vega is what — $700? If you're willing to bet on cryptonight/eth, you might as well get ~ 3*rx 570/580 cards for about the same price, and they'll be noticeably faster on cryptonight and ~two times faster on ETH. So, I think between the two I'd pick a 1080 Ti.

Does some one have a guide on how to "compile" or whatever needs to be done with a repository like DJm34 ccminer

https://github.com/djm34/ccminer-msvc2015

I was looking for the basic release where you just put the batch files in but I couldn't find it.

Not sure how to get it going. Says path not found when i run a normal batch through teh folder. . . Clearly I need to alter these file some way just not sure waht I'm doing.

Not even sure the proper terms so google is no use either. Hopefully i've made enough sense to relay what I'm trying to do.

Still worth to MINE? I want to buy one. Which coin is the best to mine with the 1080Ti right now??

1 vega=1 slot on mb=150w/h
3 polaris=3 slots on mb=~350w/h=more rigs= more heat=more hardware that could make errors
1080ti rules

[wacko]

1 vega=1 slot on mb=150w/h
3 polaris=3 slots on mb=~350w/h=more rigs= more heat=more hardware that could make errors

While I agree with slots math in general and try to go for higher-end cards myself, this particular comparison of yours is not completely fair. You're comparing the best case scenario Vega consumption in cryptonight (150w) with the pretty average ETH consumption of Polaris cards. While in reality none of my Polaris cards consume more than 80-90W in Cryptonight. In ETH yeah, about 110-140W, but not in Cryptonight. So we're comparing 150W (and I'm not even sure every Vega can do this, seen plenty of 160-180W results from other users) for one Vega @ 1800-1950 H/s VS 240-270W from 3x Polaris cards @ at least 2250 H/s (that's assuming the memory is bad, and if it's good each Polaris can make 850 H/s so 2550 H/s). Not very impressive, but +300-750 H/s for extra 100W is not bad either. The ETH difference is too substantial to ignore though, it's literally 45 MH/s vs 90 MH/s, so extra slots and consumption are worth it here even for folks with expensive electricity.

1080 Ti does rule indeed.

my point was not  to just compare the cards , but everything involved . because having 1 rog is much more cheaper to build , run and maintain then having 3 rigs .

[akirafes]

I am mining with 1080ti rigs on nicehash. My earnings are like 1 electricity  1.5 me  of total 2.5 income. Electricty costs much more with nicehash . I need and advice here. Can I play with my ti s power? Optimizing the Power Usage and lower the power? will it work with nicehash? And is there a video that can Show me how to do it?

Thank you very much for the feedback. My target for the GPU to be purchased is both mining and gaming. So more/most powerful single card is more favorable in this purchase.

I will buy a high end GPU for my PC. I actually already have 1 NV 3x1080Ti rig and 1 AMD rig with 6 RX series.
I will also use GPU on my PC to mine when it is idle which would be around 18 hours a day.
Other times daily use, gaming etc.

For now, like today with sales: RX Vega Liquid is 800USD for me and Zotac GTX1080 Ti AMP Extreme Core Edition is 921USD from local market. Both brand new.

Considering I will mine with this card, local warranty is important for me so I will buy from local market but not Amazon

Anyways 1080Ti zotac is like 965/970USD and RX Vega is 1000USD/910USD from Amazon US/EU with shipping and tax.

Both price ans waranty wise, local market is better for me today.

RX Vega consumes more and provides less in gaming. Maybe this scene may shift in years as AMD cards age well.

1080Ti is vice versa and it is a beast now and mostly like to stay as a beast for some time as well.

I am more inclined to get another 1080Ti but also concerned about new NV GPUs to come.

If 2070/1170 equals 1080Ti in performance then 1080Ti will lose a lot value as happened is 980Ti vs GTX 1070

If I can ROI most of the cost in 6 months, this will not be issue though as I do not think we will see new gen NV XX70/XX80 before May 18 on the shelves.

Monitor will be either similar priced 1440P-IPS-Gync-144Hz or 4K-TN-Freesynch-60Hz depending on the GPU.

I am aware about the user experience differences for these two monitors with these two cards.

1080Ti would be better for 4K either with Gsync for Freesynch with pure performance.

4K IPS Gysnc is quite expensive when compared with these two.

GTX 1070Ti is only "better" in terms of initial $ outlay per MH.

In all other aspects the 1080Ti is better. A 1070Ti will not get 935MH at 70% TDP.
