All input please person i bought from did not mine ETH On this system, And I dont know much

[sq1stne]

Which memory do u have? Seems low for 1060 cards. What's ur hashrate on stock settings?

[Jimbojames]

I didnt set the settings so i really dont know what the stock ones are

[whitrzac]

You should be mining ropecoin

[giveen1]

Reduce to -100 core and +800 memory to see if it improves ethash rate. If it doesnt you probably have Hynix memory and you should switch to equihash.

[Patuba]

I have a 1060 6gb card and get about 23 Mhs on ETH. I would switch to a coin that uses equihash, nvidia cards seem to do better with equihash.

[Metroid]

You should be mining ropecoin

Come on, that is my line hehe

[coins4commies]

That is a really good deal. 

Not advice but a question I have:

Shouldn't OP be mining something other than ETH with low mem nvidia cards?  equihash? neoscrypt?

[edwardceng]

1060 doesn't excellent on mining Ethash Algorithm such ETH, jump to Equihash algorithm such ZEC. and you can read OP about 1060.

[Jimbojames]

Thanks

So mine something like ZCL, BTG, ZEC, ZEN, HUSH With these cards?
So its better for me to mine Ethereum on AMD Setup then nvidia?

I really just wanna mine ethereum over other alt coins, Any recommendations on what to mine to hold ZCL, BTG, ZEC, ZEN, HUSH?

That is a really good deal.

Thanks What would something like these sell for if i wanted to sell it?

So make new afterbuner settings

What hash should I look for after this change?

[PranDoW]

6 gb cards would be better for minning. If you gonna buy second rig then buy more powerful GPU

[androstan1234]

In my experience Pascal gpus do best on eth with max underclock on the core.  My 1070s are set to -400 core clock, 50% power, +750 memclock, 32 mhs.

Some Pascal cards do not perform this well on eth.  Silicon lottery, lower quality memory, or whatever reason.  But basically all of them can do well on equihash.

Since you're unfamiliar with these gpus and with mining generally, it would be convenient for you to download nicehash and use its benchmarking tool.  That can help you assess.  If you don't want to put in extra effort, you can just plug and play to mine on nicehash.  Or you can use the benchmark data to help you optimize.

Good luck.

[androstan1234]

FYI I think afterburner cannot be reading the power quite right.  Since the 1070 has a 150W tdp, 50% powlim seems unrealistic.  Based on my killawatt readings the 1070s are pulling about 100W from the wall.  So maybe AB is reading -50% TDP as -50W TDP.  It's a mixed amd/nvidia rig and I think that explains it.

That is a really good deal.

If you really want to have ethereum and don't care what you mine. Go to MiningPoolHub and start mining an Eqihash coin but have them do payouts in Ethereum. There is a fee to have it converted but it's not that bad. That way you can mine an optimal coin and get paid the ethereum you want.

At op this man has it right

[Andre100]

maybe is more profitable be something from cryptonight coins for short term

[hous26]

You should mine any equihash coin with those cards since they have the hynix memory.  Unfortunately, hynix memory is more common with the newer 1060's and they don't perform well with Ethash mining.  They should be comparable with every other algorithm that is not memory intensive. 

You got a good deal in this market.  Not crazy good but it was a good buy nonetheless.

[Jimbojames]

Heres what NICE HASH SAYS

CPU#1 cryptonight 0.000 H/s
GPU #1, 3, 4 equihash 755.188 H/s
GPU #2 Lyra2REv2 23.719 MH/s

Daily Estimated earnings 7.42


INPUT WOULD LIKE TO DITCH NICE HASH, MAYBE MINE ZCL ON SUPERNOVA?

so like Equihash   1047.56 Sol/s just Equihash

[PetrovichCoinMaster]

My graphics card 1050ti issue of 15.6 Mh/s each with overclocking. Are your numbers without overclocking? 15,6 for 1060 is a very small value. Must be 22 to 23 Mh/s with proper overclocking.

NVIDIA Cards best perform on ZCASH , so it's recommended to mine ZCASH (EQUIHASH) on NVIDIA cards
