RVN GPU ROI Mining Analysis - (Updated)

[WickedPigeon]

With all the posts and replies about "mining profitability" - I thought I would post my analysis.

I welcome any feedback.
Couple of things:
~RVN is one of the top coins on Whattomine, making it easy to benchmark.
~All of the inputs change all the time, so this is just a slice in time.
~Electric costs have an effect - but within the range of most people's cost, from .08 to .12, changes the 1660TI 8 months on the ROI, +4 or -4 months to the chart.
~Everyone gets better/worse hash rates and PL... Yeah, I've heard it all. These are Whattomine adjusted to my experience with the rigs I have.
~I do not know anything about 2080/2080TI real world hash and PL.
~The big driver is RVN and BTC prices.

Very nice comparison. Thanks for sharing, it can spare a lot of time for someone looking to buy a new/older generation Nvidia card and try mining. I see you've included also one of the GPUs I'm considering to buy (1660 Ti). RVN is definitely a standard nowadays to make benchmarks in the alt arena.

I've been told that the 1660 is as good as the 166TI for mining, but I don't have any RVN hash rates for it yet. I own a 1660TI and it's just like a 1070 with a lot less power consumption. I'm also waiting to see what the 1650 can produce too.

Thanks for the info i think im looking for this, i will try my rx 580 to mine RVN i think its more profitable

The performance of 1060TI is a little bit lower than 1070TI and it will have a similar result on how much hash rate that can be produced by 1060TI. it must be the same as 1070TI. there was no a lot of differences between 1060TI and 1070TI.

Very good job. Thank you to the author for the fact that I did not spare time for this. I have 1060 6gb graphics card and the author's table, I see that it is almost not profitable. good times were 1-2 years ago. Then she made a good profit. Today look how much she can make a profit and it turned out that if i mine ETC today, then the net profit per day would be $ 0.18

I would like to ask if what is the color yellow and green highlight in 2 GPU on the image?

Can you calculate the monthly revenue in free electricity? I want to know if which GPU is better if you have a free source of electricity or this is the final analysis with or without electricity cost?

I just planning to build a new rig these coming months and my target GPU is RTX 2060 I hope that the price here in my country will not change.

Nice job. But there are 2 moments, that may correct your calculation.
1. used GPUs. used 10xx costs less then new 20xx series, the only problem - is electricity.
2. x16r is a bad algo to calculate hashrate.You can count another algo without calculating ROI. Just using hashes.

I'm with you on point 1. I use the spreadsheet to look at New, Used (ebay) and B-stock (manufactured refurbished) GPUs. But when I post it, I usually just use the default PCPartspicker prices.

I am getting about the same power usage with the 2060 as I am with the 1070TI - but the 2060 is slightly higher in hashing too. The 2060 is quickly becoming my new favorite card. Although I like the 1660 TI too. (still looking for results from the 1660 to see how it compares).

The biggest driver is BTC price. If you believe that BTC (with Alt-coins following) are going higher in the future - then the ROI changes quickly.

As of point 2, you are correct here too. I will copy the spreadsheet and change it for Zcoin or some other like LUX too.

Ill check at lunch...but memory says its around 15 on rvn for the 1660 (non ti).

I`m the same opinion. As for me - the 10xx choice was 1050ti or 1060 and now it goes to 2060 and 1660ti.
And 2060 is my preferred GPU. As it was with 1050ti - it have best ROI but too little hashrate and it goes to huge quantity.

[miner29]

Yah 1660 on x16r is hitting 14.8 -18.8 depending on order.

[Enzo05]

Very well said I also look at https://whattomine.com/ and saw Raven Coin as the best coin to mine for now but also I discovered veil and this also got my interest.

[giletto]

Well detailed expression of view. One of the reasons we love this platform. I observed after selecting the right GPUs with good hash, electricity can still be a problem on ROI as its dependent on locality too

One is a 1660ti and one is a 1660:



Using your 57x needed for 1 GH farm: it would cost $12,540 with 1660s.

BTW I think trex 0.9.2 Cuda 10 has the best performance.  What client do you use?

Also I am getting slightly better performance with older drivers, that only recognize 1600 series as 'Graphics Device'.

edit: using 80 watt powerlimit, 100 coreOC, 500 memOC, auto fans

17-18  MH/s is average for 80 watt powerlimit with a 1660ti or 1660.

Those are good numbers...
I'm seeing much lower. I've set -N to 36,000 to get a large sample size.

I always try as much as possible to discourage people from mining coins that have already gone up, Ravecoin have huge potential but you can still you your mining power to ming coins like Veil, which has great potential and very low marketcap for now, doing so will be a good decision

I’ve been on RVN since Jan 2018 - I’m not going anywhere.
Good luck to Veil, but I’m sticking with Tron Black and RVN.

Nice comparison, with this chart new comers now how to calculate their ROI.

Can I ask, which country did you choose to benchmark the electricity?
