do you think 1060 3gb are gonna be able to mine for long? they are nearly 100€ cheaper than 6gb versions but hashrate is just a bit lower. wanted to order a motherboard PSU and rx 580 from newegg, price:380€ would end up paying 540€ which makes it worse than just buying it from my own country. amazon, ebay, everything is either out of stock or really expensive so i'm mostly looking for used stuff. gtx 1060 3gb from 220€ 6gb from 300€ 1070 cheapest i could find is 400€ 970 190€ rx cards sometimes there is a 4gb of 470 for 250€ but usually they all hang above 300€ now i've been throwing numbers into calculators for a while and i can profit usually from 5 months with proper tuning and on. what do you guys think is it even worth it?

The 3GB 1060 isn't a great option for ETH. However, it was (and perhaps still is) one of the best low-mid range cards for mining equihash coins. At the cost of rig density, it gives a competitive ROI time if you can get one at a reasonable price, which usually isn't too hard.

yea i want to mine Zcash with it, but some people were saying that when etherium dag file rises enough Zcash might also get a dag file and i don't want to face it with a 3gb card. otherwise i also think it's great for Zcash since it gets about 300 sol/s and uses less than 100W. another thing. is a dual or even a triple fan gpu really necessary or is a small single fan gpu enough.

Ive got 2GB cards running cryptonight still. wouldnt worry if one coin is unminable since there are other options

GTX 1070 for NVIDIA - Hash per power ratio (BEST) RX 580 / 480 for AMD - Higher Hash rates

Hi everyone! Did anyone calculate, is it cheaper to buy graphic card and all infrastructure, or just miner?

Yes imo, Eth will go POS before the DAG is an issue, and I get 24 MH/s mining ethash and 300+ mining equihash

What are people’s thoughts on 1070ti versus 1080ti? I know the 1080ti has higher earning potential, but is the cost for electricity more than the increase?
Whether or not the increased power consumption is a significant factor depends on the PSUs you can get, and your electricity rate. The 1070ti is definitely an efficient option when it comes to power (more so than the 1080ti on most algorithms, when clock settings are optimized for efficiency with that specific unit), but the 1080ti isn't too bad itself.
