THanks for the tip, the research continues... any idea what hashrate i can expect with my card on ethhash?
Up to 20 MH/s if you've got Hynix ram, up to 25 MH/s if it's Samsung, and somewhat in between if it's Micron. Run gpu-z to check the brand of memory installed.
I have Micron memory. Seems I'm making an ok return on my card, based on my calcs from today's mining, i should be hitting somewhere around $150 p/m with my current settings
I get 510-520 on all my 1060s, regardless of memory type. All less than 60 watts at the wall. Set power to 50%, core to 0, mem to +650-700 and enjoy the profit. Cryptonights my favorite due to my high $/kwh.
Gonna check those settings now, thanks for posting
My 6x RX 570 rig needs 530 Watt and produced 50% higher hashrate per card compared to a GTX 1060. With your rig you will probably also consume at least 400 Watt at higher costs per card.
My kW/h costs are also rather high but you always need to keep a healthy balance between power limit and revenue.
I am only running one GTX, it's not a mining rig
Here's something interesting, my display performance was average at best while mining on my 1060, so I decided to put my old 7870 back in and use that for the display while the 1060 mines, then have them both mining when I'm not using the computer. Got it all set up with them both mining, and the ATI can mine and let me do basic display stuff at the same time.
Question for the more experienced miners... the gtx is pushing 500hz/s, and my 7870 442 with some overclocking, I know people have previously said that the Cryptonight algo is much better with ATI cards, but is the hashrate all that counts with mining, or are there other hardware aspects taken into account also?
