1080Ti Specific - Best mining option

[Rashkae]

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?

The problem with Nicehash is that it is a multi-algo system - different algos and miners respond differently to tweaks. But still, you can download MSI Afterburner and set your power level to about 75%. This will save a lot of poer and heat but only have a minimal (10%) impact on hash power.

dude, if you will forget about nicehash and mine ZEC on flypool directly and will be wise when selling what you have mined
I'm sure you can easily make twice per month what have you mined on nicehash!
nicehash is pure evil.

I know large farms running NH - since they dont have the time to read every ANN they pay NH to do it for them.

I know large farmers that pay for reading ANN for them
If u want more profit it`s better to mine even ZEC or ETH then give your rigs to NH

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.

Check a couple pages ago, there's a link to a review of the zotac card. I'd personally stay away from it, there are better designed 1080 Ti cards out there.

any benchmark lyra2z? my 80ti only get 3,1mhs

Just go to zpool.ca/bench it's a good reference database for pretty much all algos mined by nVidia GPUs out there. I wish there was a similar one for AMD GPUs... If anybody knows of one, I'd be interested to know it.

How profitable to mine BTG now?

[oup59]

only?

this what is should have. With public miners at least.

Maybe 3.3 Mhs tops.

Idk but maybe private miners can do some more.

For Zcash: http://www.zcashbenchmarks.info/

You can find values form both red and green cards.

Yep I noticed bad reviews on Amazon and Newegg like misaligned fans and disputable quality control. It should be top of line product but maybe Zotac rushed it into market.

~3300 is normal for 1080ti with public miners.
But it is too late to mine xzc. Difficulty already raised by 1.5x

It's not about the fans and quality control, all vendors have these kinds of problems from time to time, and amazon/newegg users are way more likely to bother leaving a negative review when they're not happy than a positive review when they are. The main issue with the Zotac's 1080 Ti AMP Xtreme is the bad design of the cooler. They decided to cool the VRM area with a separate small radiator that doesn't touch the main large rad in any way. And for a card as power-hungry as 1080 Ti it means that the VRM gets super hot. Considering how large the main rad is and how they could cool the VRM so much better if they'd bother to design the main rad properly (so that it touches the VRM, just like other vendors did, or is at least covered with a large baseplate that dissipates heat better) it's just bad design, plain and simple. The gamersnexus' review explains it all in detail, there's both an article and a video with pictures and temp measurements.

Which model of 1080ti is the best?
I think about palit 1080ti palit super jetstream.
Is there any better? Having more hash per Watt?

The best 1080 Ti cards are probably the watercooled ones. Both EVGA's SC2 Hybrid and FTW3 Hybrid are alright. There are also cards with full cover blocks out there, if you have a custom loop — at least EVGA, MSI and Zotac sell some. Out of the air cooled ones Palit are pretty good, although I don't think they're the best. Asus Strix seems to be a good one. The 3-fan FTW3 is pretty good. I don't like the 2-fan EVGAs (got the regular SC2), their cooling is not very good. MSI Gaming cards seem to generally receive good reviews, but I don't have any experience with them. Aorus should be alright (only have a regular 1080 Aorus Xtreme personally, which is a pretty good card, but looking at the reviews they seem to have a slightly beefier cooler on Ti cards).

Is there any better? Having more hash per Watt?

Hash per Watt is a tricky thing with 1080 Ti. With 1070s, for example, the reference cards had higher H/w than many non-reference ones. Especially noticeable with EVGA SC cards which used the reference PCB but put their better ACX cooler on it, so best of both worlds (except the VRM's were pretty hot, especially before they started to use a gazillion of thermal pads on each card). With 1080 Ti the reference PCB cards might be more power efficient as well (not sure about it), but the reference nvidia's cooler sucks and I'm not aware of any of the vendors' cards using the ref PCB with a custom cooler. So, I suppose I actually have no idea which ones are better in terms of H/W. I'd guess the "beefier" cards are less power efficient. Will soon have an FTW3 Hybrid and will try to compare it with the SC2 to check this theory of mine.

Very good point to touch. Thanks for the feedback.

Cool so waiting for your test

I read that
Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080 Ti Xtreme Edition
Is the fastest.
And maybe Kingpin do the same but cost lot more.

Hi,
Any alternative to mine BTX on suprnova, their fees are crazy high.
