NVIDIA GTX Titan X - Ethereum

[kali079]

Hello all!
I've started mining Ethereum with a rig that I have sitting here for Design work while I wait for my new cards to come in. This thing has 3 Titan X 12GB GPUS. In reading, I should be able to get ~60 MH/s from it but am only getting 30-37MH/s. I know these aren't great mining cards BUT I'm told they should do twice what they are. Can anyone give me some insight into tuning these guys up? I'm using Claymore Miner on Windows 10, I've checked in the NVIDIA Control Panel to enable the optimize for processing option on the cards.  Any help is appreciated!

I assume those are Maxwell generation Titan X cards. If so, then you're better off mining something like ZCash with them. Download EWBF miner and DSTM miner, try which one is faster for you, and point them at any large ZCash pool (like flypool, for example). These cards are pretty powerful still, somewhat close to GTX 980 Ti, which is close to GTX 1070.. anyway, they're not good for ETH, there are way better algos to mine with them.

Yeah, they are Maxwell Generation cards. I'll check out one of your recommendations for other algorithms. I also have a Quadro P5000 running on claymore right now and its getting 22MH/s would it also be better on another currency?

Thanks for your help!

Most definitely. P5000 is basically the same thing as GTX 1080, so it should hash Equihash at ~520-580 sol/s. That's ~ $2.7 a day. And mining Ethereum with it you'd only get $1.5 a day at most.
