Hello all,
I'm in the process of setting up my first mining rig and am trying to plan ahead as to what to mine etc. The whattomine website only shows 1080 cards. Can I use any kind of multiples to show what the Ti will produce? Or is there another website that shows up-to-date stats and cards?
Thanks,
DE

What ever the 1080 can do, the 1080 ti can do better

yes ..choose 2 1070's.
That will give you the 1080ti hash rate.

Two GTX 1070s seem to cost the same as one 1080ti... why would you want a rig with 6 1070s if you could get double the hashing power out of a rig with 6 1080tis?
Other than the obvious high price of setting up a 6x1080ti, of course.

I think you just answered your own question lol... As others say just enter 2 in the box next to 1070 and that will give you a rough idea...

It doesn't really work that way as some are closer than others A better idea is to go to http://yiimp.ccminer.org/bench?algo=all&chip=387Then look up some benchs for a 1080 ti and plug them back in to whattomine.com As an example they list equihash at 840 h/s for 2 x 1070's, whereas a single 1080 ti only really gets ~710

Thanks for the info all. Are there any coins that the 1080Ti CAN'T mine?

It also has good hashrate for skein.

So I have the same card. I started messing around to see what would give me the best return. Started with Nicehash, cause well I am new to mining. But didn't like the return of $6 a day. So I turned to LBRY - which seemed to mine great, about $7-8 a day avg. Then I found Skein, I've been mining that since yesterday at 4pm - nice hash rate of 480M/hs. I think this will be the way to go. Going to let it run for a few days to see how many coins I can mine. I have bought a second GPU too, just waiting for my SLI bridge.

Thanks for the info all. Are there any coins that the 1080Ti CAN'T mine? It can mine any algorithm supported by the miner. Nvidia GTX 10 is good for Equihash (ZEC) and Skein (DGB). For Dagger coins (ETH) GTX 1080 ti is not as good as AMD RX 4XX/5XX. It can do ~38 MH/s but costs 3x more than a RX 470/570 that can do ~28 MH/s.

Also be aware that whattomine isn't the best source for what is profitable to mine. Many blake2s, skein, hmq1725 algo coins that are not on their yet.

just waiting for my SLI bridge.
SLI doesn't help in mining. and 2x1070 outperform 1080ti on any algo by 10-30% they are both great for sure.

I thought I'd need a bridge to connect the second GPU. I have two PCI-E slots on the mobo. However, I plugged the second GPU in and received a black screen almost immediately after logging in to Windows.

The bridge does exactly nothing for mining.

Unless you are using gpus for gaming, you don't need to bridge them using crossfire or sli.

I have both cards, 3 X 1070 = 2 X 1080 TI for most coins.

You guys are getting GTX because you cant find RX or is it by choice? If so, why ?

If you have a GTX 1080 Ti I hope that was a typo for your hashrate. A GTX 1080 ti should be getting 900+ Mh/s on skein - some versions of ccminer reportedly even top 1000 MH/s on skein. Which miner are you using?

You get better profits from the GTX cards for everything accept Ethash mining. Mining a combination of Skein, Blake2s, hmq1725, equihash, bitcore etc, yields better profit with better power efficiency. GTX 1070's are the sweet spot if you are not space constrained. 1080ti's are great when contrained for space but fall behind in some algos when compared to two 1070s.

Are you mining a specific coin or are you in a multipool like nicehash ?
