Happy New Years! Seventh alt coin thread!

On my air cooled 9x EVGA SC and SC2 1080Ti rigs I'm doing: (currently $81.07)

tdp 80% (190W)
core 100
ram 550

On my water cooled 4x MSI 1080Ti rig I'm doing: (currently $38.26)

tdp 75% (190W)
core 145
ram 600

On my water cooled 1x Zotac 1080Ti rig I'm doing: (currently $9.72)

tdp 65% (230W)
core 240
ram 650

So the brand/model of the specific 1080Ti makes a big difference on the tdp and core settings used.

EVGA least power hungry and highest factory clock
MSI fairly power hungry and middle of the road factory clock
Zotac crazy power hungry and very low factory clock (on their watercooled card unlike their AMP! Extreme)

So about 9 a card  nice

Is anyone mining on the B2X bitcoin? I put 1 D3 on it just incase.
The network hashrate seems to be going up each day

[Mashy81]

Also thinking of getting some 1080's as I am only AMD and asic mining.
Is there a big mining difference between 1080 and 1080ti?
I can get 1080 for $520 or 1080ti for $750.

at those price points the 1080  is pretty much the better deal .




And some good news the beast  is due to ship.

it will be set as windows 10  not smos it will be loaded with nvidia cards

Thanks! Nice bump up this NIST5 - putting my modest NVIDIA farm to work.

ZEC was doing well but NIST5 at NH better $$$.

I have 3 of those Zotac AMP Extreme - yes they are beast mode out of the box - very hard to OC or tune without crashing - but then again they are already factory tuned.

hello lads. what miner r u using for nist5? ccminer?

[dragonmike]

Nist5 profits are basically driven by Bulwark currently. Btw why are you guys mining Nist5 at Nicehash rather than ahashpool for example? You're just paying high fees and taking Nicehash risk and its dodgy payout policy...

Is water cooling a worth while investment? At what point do you say I better go water cooled with this one?

I have more then 20 water-cooled cards.

water cooled 1080 ti evga hybrid
water cooled 1080 ti msi seahawks

these do 710 easy 745 pushed

the real key is they are quiet.

I was buying these until they sold out




http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-gfx-gtx-1080-ti-liquid-cooled-graphics-card


they were 805 shipped to me in NJ

If you can find them for 805 they are a good deal.

I am strongly considering selling my Vegas and going 100% Nvidia. This is because windows falls over too often and Vegas are quite problematic. Nvidia on linux is rock solid and self-repairing (most of the time)

I have offers to sell 8 * Vegas for $785USD each. I'm pretty keen to pick up 8 * hybrid 1080ti to replace them.

WTM says;
Instant / 24H / 3Day / 7Day

8 Vegas profit;
$66 / $59 / $61 / $66

8 1080ti profit;
$79 / $68 / $68 / $79

Am I missing something or is the market totally overreacting to the Vega hype? I should 100% do the deal, right?

What can you say about the different types of hybrid 1080ti's, Phil?
I see the following available locally;
Gigabyte GTX1080Ti 11GB AORUS Waterforce
EVGA GeForce GTX1080Ti SC2 Hybrid Gaming
MSI GTX 1080 TI SEA HAWK

[thedue]

Well I was using AMD only for years... switched to Nvidia because of phils threads  
Using 1060 3GB, 6GB, 1070 and 1070ti... no bios hassle and stuff.. nothing... build the rig, GO! just a bit OC through SM... done...

Zotac was my fav brand because of the price + 5 years guarantee... but I´m thinking about switching back to Evga.. rock solid GPUs... a bit more expensive but cool and fast as **** 

no watercooling! too expensive in EU

I am loving my 1080ti's and wouldn't trade them for Vega if you paid me!  

It's pretty awesome to watch them pull $10+ per day on a variety of coins recently, and if one coin tanks, then it's trivial to switch over to something else and simply adjust afterburner a little.

I'm on a REALLY hot coin right now and am hitting 0.0133669 BTC in 24 hours for 6 x 1080ti's.
That works out to $200.31 and divided by 6 is $33.89 per 1080 ti, per day

Check out the Asus Poseidon cards as well. They can be either air or water cooled, but you'll need a full loop as they aren't hybrids like the others.

What OS do you use to swap exotic coins? I would say the main limitation of nvOC is that it's hard to pick the exotics and stay up to date with miners.

the msi sea hawk  with built in water cooling
http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-gfx-gtx-1080-ti-liquid-cooled-graphics-card    = very good


the evga hybrid

https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GV-N108TAORUSX-W-11GD-GeForce-Waterforce/dp/B073D584Z1/ref=sr_1_2? = I never used this one


note make sure they are the 8pin+6pin versions


don't buy

they need  a pump a fan and a radiator they are hard to setup

Ok noob question. When you say 710 or 745 pushed. What are you referring to?

But, but, they are so pretty to look at.  Here's my Arcticstorm:

But yeah, for a 100% mining only rig, that type of water cooled GPU is too much work.
