There are a couple of them on P104-100 on Aliexpress and I have requested some prices from B2B providers too. If you can buy such a card for less than 600$, it's probably a very good deal.

13 GPU Nvidia Rig running under Ubuntu 16 (eth hash rate: 300+Mh/s @ 1000W for whole rig): 3x EVGA GTX 1060 3Gb (24MH/s @ 65W) + 6x MSI Armor GTX 1060 3Gb (24MH/s @ 70W) + 1x MSI GTX 1060 (24Mh/s @ 65W) + 3x Zotac GTX 1060 (24MH/s @ 65 W). PSU 2400W, Asrock ASRock H110 Pro BTC+, cheap Chinese risers, Kingston SSD 120Gb, 8Gb memory. Selling some of my GPUs (around 200€, still under warranty), if you're interested, contact me in private.

What about the P104-100 models ? Some people here have started buying them and are getting pretty impressive hash rates.

I did some research on these and they were getting them to 40+ Mh/s with 180 watt. So that would be the most efficient one. I only didn't find where to buy them, nor a price for them.

That is POOR efficiency for ETH - I see a bit over 100 watts on STANDARD 1070 models to get 31 Mhash/sec as of RIGHT NOW.
Pushing power higher doesn't help hashrate, as they are DEFINITIVELY memory limited.


 On Zcash, 1070 ti cards generally can exceed 4.4 sol/watt on a SUSTAINED basis - 460 sol/sec at 104 watts - don't just look at the "best figure" as that's going to be misleading as all of the current ZCash miners do a "instant check" on power draw and sometimes catch it in a "momentary DIP" that is not representative of what the card was actually drawing for most of the several second period between readouts by the miner.
 This isn't a "miner" issue, as Nvidia-SMI does the same thing.

The best figure I've seen for any 1080 ti model was a bit over 4.1 on a "sustained" basis - 620 hash at 150 watts - but I could see one managing a bit better with more work on "tweeking" done.

 Those figures are using EWBF - depending on the card and the settings, you might seem more out of DSTM or Bminer (I don't do Zcash mining on Windows though except for ONE gaming machine that normally runs Nicehash).

1080 ti dominates with the widest selection of coins and longevity predictions at the moment.

Hash per Watt: 1070 Ti > 1080 Ti > 1070 > 1060 > 1080.

Dollar per hash is all over the board right now with market pricing well above MSRP.

Marketing prices are crazy but is this the new norm for prices even the manufactures like evga where you can buy cards well when lucky are charging more than before so are manufactures suggested retail prices now higher

I vote for RX470 (60-80W for 25-30 on ETH with straps mod). Isn't it actually the rarest GPU ?

I agree. Buying some models of GPU would have been better than investing in gold within the last year.

An other option is to donating your GPU computing power (and get MEDIC coins rewards) to support protein folding at home project of Stanford University through MEDIC Coin's folding at home initiative.

Or use the LONG_standing Curecoin and FoldingCoin "shared folding" option.
Is "Medic coin" even up and running yet?


RX 470 does NOT pull 25Mhash+ on ETH on 80 watts much less 60 - more like 100-120 in actual usage.
I've got a FEW of those.
GPU-Z does NOT give accurate power draw information, according to my wattmeter, even after factoring in for PS efficiency.

They're not rare - they've just been out of production for quite a while so NEW ones are rare.
