GTX 1070 getting 58+ mh/s per card on Ethereum mining / modded nvidia drivers

[P00P135]

It has been over 24 hours since I paid the guy (Michael) 1.1 ETH. We were in back and forth conversation, but once I paid I have heard nothing from him. Was supposed to receive the driver within 30 minutes after payment. I'm going to give it officially until Monday (maybe he took the weekend off) until I call it for what it seems to be.

Now I can't help but wonder how much this piece of crap actually stole for dumb people.

It is officially a SCAM everyone. I had a friend reach out and now the price is 1.2 ETH. The guy just gets you to send him money and then never responds again. Hopefully I will be his last victim.

You will notice that you can't post comments on his YouTube video, he must have them on approval only. I have posted multiple from various accounts and only I can see them. See below

minergrind@gmail.com is the email he uses. Anyone know a way to destroy it?

We should also find a way to get these videos shut down. This guy claims to be a miner but is ruining the trust of Crypto by scamming people.

You know what I think I should get into the scam business after reading this Why in the hell would you pay him 1.2 ETH? You could have paid that to me for at least doing something useful such as putting input into this forum and helping devs make mining software better. Here is my ETH address: fd270e6b6e06ea6a148d75a673c4bd0a8e66587e Waiting for my 1.2 or 1.1 ETH for not trusting my wise post #36 and feeding scammer ETHs Seriously waiting, I feel cheated!

I mainly wanted to see what would become of it and officially put it to bed for anyone else that may have come across that video/post. Most of the things I read were about I don't "think" it is possible. I appreciate your post #36 and it makes total sense but I had already purchased it from him by that time. By going through the scam dance with him I now have actual email correspondence to give to YouTube to get those videos removed. I figured it was a SCAM. I figured if I can afford to lose 1.1 ETH why not maybe be able to get this guy's account terminated so he can't get anyone else.

After all what's been written, people still fall for the same scams... plz use your heads and think

Hi folks,

i have read a lot about scammers, but sometimes it's hard to identify it. IMHO 58 mh/s per GTX 1070 is impossible.

I found another video on Youtube https://youtu.be/vfXzcMLxCAU

The Guy is getting 38 mh/s per GTX 1070 with tesla drivers. Can this be legit?

Hello. This is also SCAM.

[Miderian]

This is a scameast Scam. Don't throw your money.
Read comments people got fooled.

[duniek]

afterburner maxed out (+1000 mem) you can get 34,5 on claymore on 1070 (non ti)

maybe 36-38 will be believeable but 58?
LOL

[pops87]

You can report this video for scams on YouTube.

Yeah that 1070 wont last too long or will keep crashing.
+1000 mem is suicide.

Why are you guys even mining ETH on nvidia cards? ZEC is like 20% more profitable on its worst day.

Why are you guys even mining ETH on nvidia cards? ZEC is like 20% more profitable on its worst day.

 Depends on the specific card.

 GTX 1060, it's been pretty close and often ETH IS more profitable.

 GTX 1070, usually fairly close though ZEC is usually a LITTLE more profitable.

 GTX 1080 and 1080 ti, no competition ZEC wins hands down as those cards are not real good at ETH due to the GDDR5X memory latency issues.

 GTX 1070 ti is a question mark at this point, depends on if the cores are actually usable for ETH or if it's memory limited, but I suspect it will be better on ZEC as well.

[blacktux88]

would be really cool but i think also its scam

[Dimedroll]

An OTS 1080ti with a +600 mem overclock can touch 38.

1) If such a patch existed, you would think it would have to apply across most of the product line. So why not patch 1080 ti's instead?

2) The buyer has no idea whether some sort of insane overclock is required and therefore what kind of cooling is required. I'm not sure how useful the "Arctic Circle"  variant of any card would be. A further question at this performance level is, what part of the card is getting stressed the most?


A lot of technical issues need to be addressed before even thinking of buying such a mod purchase.

1080 ti for Zcash only I think

[QuintLeo]

GTX 1080 ti can mine ETH - it's just not a sensible or economical option to do so, as it is nearly matched on hashrate by MUCH MUCH less expen$ive cards with similar or superior hash/watt.

[chiggx]

Surprising how many people still fall for these scams...

Hi Guys,

I bit the bullet and paid the 1ETH to buy, the link I was directed to was this one:
https://satoshibox.com/65rrpjv3hr2q4x5z4cydj7fi

Here is a link to the virustotal:
https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/0ddf6820f2fcca3ec3021e42a028f8bc08bca123fcea4c0c3f41c8c0ffa5febd/details

It's a compiled driver binary. I installed it and it doesn't seem to increase performance on 1070 nor 1060. Just seems like the standard NVIDIA driver, with god knows what baked into the binary.

If you guys want, I can upload the file itself too.

Best,
ark

I agree mostly with 1080 but 1060 is way better on eth rather than zen or zec i have few and they aren't really good with equihash algo.

Hi folks,

3 days ago i came across with this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdeA7s9SmRY

I emailed the owner of the video and here is his response :

Hello,
We have currently a special offer because we sold 50 drivers from a price range of 6-100 ETH in one week. So the sale price is 2.5 ETH for  1- 50 GPU´s. It is available until sunday and you get the 1060 and 1080(TI) driver for free as soon as we are ready. If you have further questions feel free to ask.
Thank you


So what do you think?

nvidia does not have open source drivers so it could not possible. Its scam.
