1080Ti Specific - Best mining option

[helloeverybody]

Is anyone getting any decent results mining monero? It looks like the hashrate im getting its kind of pointless to mine. Hopefully price picks up on everything, finding it hard to find anything decent to mine now

ANd does anyone else have the same problem with ccminer, when you shut down the miner you rwhole rig pretty much freezes up? Ive got mooo system monitor running and although its as good as frozen it doesnt show any bottleneck or high usage.

so Im currently loking for something else to mine with my 1080Ti and I just started to mine Vertcoin but the best I can get is 60.xx MHs with stock settings.

Im using ccMiner release 8.13 (KlausT-mod, August 26th, 2017) on pool.verters.com

Anyone else mining this coin ? Any tips or suggestions for another pool ?

Sniffdog zpool+hash,all algos,no OC(otherwise it crash the farms apparently),switch time 5 mins -2.85/card.
Not happy at all.

just stick to hashrefinery and mine coins algos profitable for 1080 TI such as x17, Lyra2re2, Skein, Nist5.

do you use default algo switch time?
It seems that 90 sec is too low-half of the day it mines at "miner start and accelerates" rate.

I have 4 1080Ti and after looking at the hashrefinery pools I doubt I could make more money than mining the top coins for our card on whattomine even if its not accurate. eg: there are currently no worker on the lyra2re2 pool ...

Why hasrrefinery?,  miningpoohub has higher  hash rate and more miners with  equal fee.  I understand that zpool's 2% or nicehash 3% could be worse options because of the fee, but on paper I don't understand the advices on hashrefinery.

Those mining SIGT, do you actually make the amount whattomine estimates? I'm running 4 1080 ti cards and only made ~100 coins in 12 hours when I'm estimated at 150. Mining at a steady 190mh/s and using suprnova pool

The most accurate for me is https://blockstats.pw/signatum/

ya i dont understand these profit switches, its like they have no idea how PPLNS works :/
Especially if you use a yimmp based pool (hashrefinery), you just start building some share, then it switches and you lose your share % in the time b4 a block is hit :/
I am not gonna use sniffdog, except for maybe benchmarks ;p its dece for that haha.  plus, OC, dosent really apply to profit switchers :/ mem hard, core hard, same OC? OK DEN! ;p noob miners making progs haha, they can code but have no idea how mining works ;p

I was mining at poolhub for 3 days while yiimp pools were down, profit was ridiculously low. Somewhere around 1.4$ per 1080TI card on skein algo. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but that have never happened to mi on hashrefinery. Even this week when BTC hit bottom low, I'm earning 2$ per card. Seen a lot of praise for Miningpoolhub, didn't work for me, hashrefinery is way better. Again, I haven't done meticulous tests.

WhatToMine figures on the 1080 ti are often way off - you have to plug YOUR OWN FIGURES in to get reasonable results.

 Example - they claim the 1080 ti on Zcash's algo is 635 sol/s.
 I see about 780 out of my Gigabyte Aorus with EWBF 3.4b

I have a few of them and all I can get is 740 Sol/s

Can you share your settings ?

Havent done Zcash in a while but back then I was doing 770-780 and "IF" i'm lucky 790-800 but very rare this high.

+60 Core
+800 Mem

I also have the power at 115% because free electricity lol.
Fans at 95% because thats what they are designed to be at.

temps were around 60-68C

Several EVGA 1080ti FTW3

Mining Skein at Hashrefinery and Ahashpool seems the best thing right now for these cards.

there's no such thing as "free" electricity here, just because YOU aren't paying for it, i assure you SOMEONE IS
95% fan your gonna burn one out pretty quick i give them 2 months, where did you see "thats what they are designed to be at" ? lol i would laugh to see ANY manufacturer recommend a 95% fan hahah damn, i never go over 80%, and my cards run 50°

I've been testing out sniffdog for the last few days and wondering the same thing.

On one hand, my brain says you should want the interval to be low so if / when a coin's difficulty and value line up to be the most profitable coin to mine at that current time ( for those minutes or seconds ) you want your miner to switch and mine that shit.

Then on the other hand, if the coins keep switching positions every 90 seconds, you are literally losing 10-20s of ramp up time for every 90s just from switching algos.

I dunno.... I've left it at 90s for now and am gonna let it run for another few days to take my daily earnings average over at least 5 days, and then i'll switch the interval to something longer and compare.

I have a few 280x with fans @ 100% since day 1 (2015) and they still run like new ones, seriously.

I actually never saw a single 1080Ti running without crashing with mem above +500. Most of them have problem with +400...
OTOH , the only 2 GTX-1080 (Not Ti) I have can run with +700 without crashing.

A bit of research online on the fans; but yeah problem I'm having is I've crammed up 8 of them per rig which is limited in width - so I'll have to spread them out a bit further - Also depends on algo/miner you use, with Equihash temps were stable in the 60s for overclocking memory. But Skein requires more core and least available amount to underclock on mem. Just a guess but seems overcloking core generates more heat vs memory - I can't do anything but guess on that part..

What I did was start with +500, I added +50 slowly till I hit 800.. sometimes it would crash 750 sometimes 800 sometimes it's fine - But works fine on an EVGA FTW3 - last time I needed mem clock was with equihash - I purely mine skein right now because it's the most profitable (as per my benchmarks) and that needs more core less mem. Gives about 1080mh/s per card on +100 core -502mem

Bit sad though how bad things going for GPU Mining especially on this beast of a card

[NameTaken]

Mined NIST5 on hashrefinery for 12 hours which netted 0.000285 BTC per 1080 Ti so I'm switching back to ZEC.
