Mining performance of Nvidia RTX 2080 Series

[TrailingStop]

I get about 7.5 out of my EVGA 1060 with Samsung. Maybe you want to have a look at my miner which should give you some more hashes?

Typical corporate-greed-hole move. They release a newer model a month after everyone else has already bought the more expensive model.

Anyway, the reviews of the 2080 hashrate are disappointing so far. Hope VoskCoin does a proper review of this GPU soon. I'm interested to confirm if mining is truly dead for GPU lovers. Hoping it isn't but reality is starting to kick in..

It's not a newer model. It's a consumer level model, and pretty much every industry has always done that--the pro, expensive models come out first, the cheaper consumer grade ones follow.

Why wait for Vosk, there's loads of mining reviews out there already

Why does the release of a new "gaming card" signal the death of "gpu mining"? I think it's a step forward, it just needs gen 2 to bring it to the masses, which will be in about 6-9 months
Oh you mean the reality of everyone buying stupidly expensive rigs cos BTC was gonna hit 50K....well guess what, never going to happen...

Here is some info I got, but still testing.... check out the Reddit post. Just sharing my info, I welcome insight, coaching and recommendations to get the best info for the community.

I done some more testing, per other miners request on specific algos, and below the link to reddit is today's testing.

great review finally

2080 looks like a bust, power draw is barely better than a 70% powlimit 1080ti. 

I suspect the 2080ti is the only card worth buying in that class but not even for that price

X16r - 30mh
X16s - 14mh
X17 - 14mh
X16 algos should be benched for long time. But +/- they should be equal x17.

You have to be very careful.
Now scammers will begin selling fake miners with an overestimated hashed or distribute virus miners.
The current results of new video cards do not justify their performance in the mining.

Ethereum mining is not interesting. We need other algorithms - neoscrypt, lyra2rev2, x16r/s, x17, cryptonight variants, progpow, equihash variants?

ETH rewards going to 2 coins per block is going to drive so many miners off the coin and onto others.

I think the difficulty of other coins will rise a lot.

if ETH price going up maybe miner will mine ETH not go to other coin

Look at the XDNA project and HEX algo. It seems to do very well with 2080ti and Enemy miner, also the block reward is scaling with the hashrate.
The emission starts from very low while there are few miners and when the people's interest and the miners increase the hashrate, then the block reward increases automatically. That way there is no sudden profit drop because of many miners.

Ask Zimbabwe how that worked out...

[QuintLeo]

hashrate still nothing, however, gaming 2080ti x 1080ti = 35% faster, if 35% is confirmed then is a huge disappointment.

i think if game not support RTX function maybe faster around 10-15%

A couple leaked reviews claim 30-45% faster with RTX disabled.

Why is that the case? It doesn't make sense RTX function would drag down performance.

How many games support the RTX cores so far?
Do ANY of them?
If you shut them down they don't eat power - leaving more power for the rest of the GPU.

You can also buy the 2080 ti with BTC!

Why is this news?
Newegg has accepted BTC for years now.

https://www.computerbase.de/2018-09/nvidia-geforce-rtx-2080-ti-test/6/#abschnitt_gpucompute_auf_turing_funktioniert_gut

Without any optimisation or oc or "enalargement pills": for eth
RTX 2080 ti : 48.7 mh/s
RTX 2080 35.5
vega : 34.6
GTX 1080 ti : 32.2

far less than titan V.

Compare to the GTX 1070 at 30-31 Mhash for ETH (speaking of my own cards and production numbers, though testing numbers should normally be the same given how most folks DO their testing).

How does the power consumption compare to my cards pulling 104-110 watts (depending on the specific card) for stable hashrate?

Lyra2rev2 definitely, but forget equihash it's ASIC owned.

[QuintLeo]

would be better to have all the algo not just eth, hich is pointless for nvidia to mine anyway...

That is right. The ETH is ASIC mineable now.

And the only current ETH ASIC to date barely matches a well-tuned GTX 1070 6-card rig - bit less hash, almost identical power.
It DOES cost a fair bit less though, even with the recent price drop on the 1070.

Hi guys, it's Luke from Cudo Miner here. We've just reviewed the latest GEFORCE RTX 2080 and compared its mining performance against the GTX 1080 on 4 different algos. Just wanted to share the video we've produced to show you the results. 📹


Equihash

NVidia GTX 1080 Founders OC: 391 Sol/s   

Gigabyte RTX 2080 OC: 566 Sol/s (+45%)

And a Z9 mini can easily pull over 12,000 Sol/s (that's what mine is doing at 550 Mhz clock, *0* HW errors and running pretty cool) on less than 350 watts at the wall with a Seasonic gold PS powering it.

Why do people bother testing GPUs on equihash any more?


The OTHER results you posted though were useful.
