Thank you for the time put into the analysis. I can deduct that 1660ti is a little better that 1660 and the best choice compared to harsh rate and return. With three 1660ti miners which is far cheaper I can produce more RVN than 2080ti per day

I believe the first step to take in mining is solving electricity issues, the next is choosing the right effective miner which would be the 1660ti miner. Hopefully X16r algorithm heavy loading won't lag the graphics processor needed for optimum job

Look at how close the 1660 is to the 1660 ti. That's can't be correct. Same story between 2060 and 2070. One of either GPUs in these two combos above has mis-stated hashrate for sure.

The Chart is a combo of my actual experience (marked with **), updated hashrates from other users (marked with +) and all other hash rates come from Whattomine.com. Somewhat conservative in its nature, the chart is meant to gauge the GPU ROI for mining RVN - as a general benchmark for mining. As for the 1660 vs 1660TI - that comes from a poster named FullZero - and his work seems accurate. As for the 2060 - those numbers come from my rig and that's what I'm getting. I think the 2070 is low, but that comes from Whattomine and I don't have any better data. If you find accurate, well tested hash rates, please pass them along. Thanks!

What's the reason? have you tried that and got a different result than what has already posted by OP? I thought there were no significant differences in the performance between 1660Ti and 1660. Just curious about how you can say that?

I'm happy to stand corrected, just trying to get the data as clean as possible. x16r is tricky to get a proper average from, many noobs like to post their highest figures instead of the average... which should be taken over 24 hours really on that algo.

So I got myself a couple of Asus RTX 2060 on the back of the analysis from this thread. Thanks again, WickedPigeon, it was the best comparison I had seen so far around here.
I can confirm the figures are accurate, I'm getting pretty much exactly the same speeds as my 1080's for approx 10-15W less per card.
Running the 2060's at 75% PL, +100 core, -500 mem. @WickedPigeon, what are you running yours at out of curiosity?

It doesnt matter. I think that at all his research they are the same. So 2060 gets on top. As for me - its unusual. I thought 1660to would won the contest. But as i said - 2060 is my favourite GPU.

I am running two 2060's (EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 XC ULTRA GAMING) - I have them set at PL85, +125, 0 - seems to be stable and I am averaging 25Mh/s on both.

How much do you get now to earn Veil coins per day from these 2 of your 2060 videocards. I want to understand the profitability of mining. I now have a new videocard 2060.

I’ve been only mining RVN for over a year, so I really don’t know any other mining coins currently. I’ll look at Veil and see if I can figure out how it’s hashing.

I think I'm going to switch to Ebay average prices for the old 10 series. The 1660's and the 2060's are still the best value. I think the 20 series is the safer bet for the long run, but who knows... ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FNQ0jWkh.png&t=665&c=_7zbvlorHFhd-Q)

You set $250 as "Rig Cost" to any rig. But this cant work.
Each rig needs Board, CPU, Ram, SSD (or Stick), (OS), (other Licences), Risers, (small parts like Fans, Box, ...), which are fixed costs. BUT you also need PSU's which fully depends on the GPU load.
A 2080 Ti Rig needs a 1600W PSU (1300W with PL < 100) or 2-3 smaller ones, but doesn't matter in terms of costs. A 1660 Rig can run with a 750W PSU for just 1/3 of the price of the 1600W. So your calculation needs a bit more improvement here, which will change your order.

Yes, you can build a "mining" rig, without GPU's, for Sub-$250, at least in the U.S. I'm not building Gaming/mining Rigs - just straight mining rigs. CPU: Intel - Celeron G3900 2.8 GHz Dual-Core Processor ($41.15 @ OutletPC) Motherboard: Gigabyte - GA-H110-D3A ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($58.39 @ Amazon) Memory: G.Skill - Aegis 4 GB (1 x 4 GB) DDR4-2133 Memory ($20.98 @ Newegg) Storage: Kingston - A400 120 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($19.99 @ Amazon) Total: $140.51 + $70 PSU + $20 Open Air Mining Case + $15 6-pack of Risers= $245.51 Totals ~$250 Couple of weeks ago I bought two B-Stock EVGA 1000w PSUs for $70 each. And I can run up to 6 GPU's on a 1000W. I wouldn't use 1080TI's, 2080's nor 2080TI's due to the low ROI, but if you did, you would have to spend a bit more on a beefer PSU. Or spend $50 on something like this 1500w https://www.newegg.com/p/1HU-004W-003W6?Description=mining%20psu&cm_re=mining_psu-_-9SIA7GT7942441-_-ProductIt helps if you check around for sales, and if you not worried about buying on Ebay, New-old stock can lower costs too. I'll keep an inventory of parts, stocking up when I find a good deal. BTW - Windows is free from the Microsoft website - you just don't activate the license. Saves a couple of $. I know all of this works - I've been doing just this for a while now - no problems. Additionally - I've bought "New" old stock on Ebay - recently got a mining MB and Processor for $50 - Both new.

Can you elaborate on what this would build if I did exactly this purchase. Like hashrate, what I can mine, or what I would need on top of this list to get mining? I've been looking on Ebay and Amazon at already set-up and used rigs but they are quite a bit more than 250. And Used rigs kind of make me nervous, since I hear about hardware failure being a common issue with mining. So that sounds like a good price to learn the basics.

To maximize profit from mining its advisable that you mine undervalued coins that has not gone up in price too much. you can easily mine more of such coin and wait for the price to rise. Uplexa and veil are example of such undervalued coin you can mine easily

While I have built a bunch of mining rigs over the past couple of years, I'm not an expert on this. I think there are other threads in this forum that are better suited for that discussion. There are also a number of YouTubers that cover building a mining rig as well as Reddit too. A;; depends on what you want to do. There are so many variables - from what you want to do - cash mine or Spec mine; big coins or alt coins; your knowledge and background; capital available; time available; what coins/tech you believe in. Good luck with the journey - I hope you find a enjoyable way to dip your toes into the mining world.
