i think ETH + LBC is a good option, use claymore's dual miner for that.

just download the miner and test for yourself https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.0my friend had a few 1070s and he said that you should give it some time and change the dcri option on miner a lot to reach the best result. also consider ZEC.

For GPU mining, GTX stands best currently and 1070 is most upgraded model by now. If you want to do profitable mining then you will have to increase your hash rate as compared to other miners in the world. Because mining is work of competition, the one has more power will get most of the chances to find a bock.
Since the two to three years, GPU mining is thought to be unprofitable but its nothing like that if you have pretty good hashing rate.
Speaking about 1070 GTX model you are taking good step and I think you should go with its scale up before the prices for these cards sk rocket (which are already very high). So good option by now.

I'd rather mine most profitable coin and then change it to coin i want to hold

Thanks for the info...may i know why you chose these specific cryptos? also, for SIA, how many hours do it take to get one SIA? do you mine solo or in a pool?

I flip around a lot.
eth/lbry dual lbry zec
I like the idea of lbry in theory and the app is pretty slick but they have a lot of work to do with it (speed etc.)

i see quite a few recommending zcash at the moment in various forums...how much o/p do you get mining it in a week?

I have 2 old rigs that I use to mine with r9 270s. I converted one to my regular gaming computer and putting a 1080 TI in soon. My other rig I'm going to put my 1070's in when my 1080 TI comes. TBH it looks like it changes a lot due to dramatic price swings. I Think it's probably best to find a coin you believe in and the 1070 mines good TBH. I would not take my opinion. I'm more of a hobbyist than serious miner. The 1080 TI's seem like a good deal now that the Vega came out...

Check out whattomine under the GPU section.
ETH/EXP are Dagger Hashimoto based coins and can dual mine with coins like LBC DCR and SIA. On whattomine this is called ethhash.
GTX 10 cards have an edge in ZCASH based coin mining. That algo is called equiihash on whattomine.
Coins I mine with my GTX 10 cards are: ZEC ZEN HUSH and KMD.

Then i found out about dual mining and decided for SIA because they have a service behind the coin and i belive it will be worth as investment. I use pools for all mining. I am not sure how much time i need for 1 Sia coin you get few of them every hour or two I guess. Signatum i started just because it was convinient. I got into it few days after launch and mining it since then. Already had some nice profits of it.

thanks for the reply. since i am a newbie, i need some clarification. Is it possible to mine 2 currencies at the same time? Does it use a single miner to mine both or do we use 2 miners, one for each? Please explain.
