Going for at least one or two cards. But I want the 3090 more then the 3080

if x4 hashrate in other algo for 3090 compared to 2080...let the others mine eth and you profit with other coin$$$$ LOL

[jasta more]

Pulled these estimates from the site that Vosk used in his latest video which I didn't find to informing.  https://cryptoage.com/

There are some numbers that look like they could do a decent ROI if they ring true and prices hold up.  Obviously eth comes in a little higher than their estimates.  MTP seems to have taken a big drop recently.

RTX 3080 GPU Mining Hashrate (Estimated)

Algorithm   GTX 1080   RTX2080   RTX2080S   RTX 3080 (forecast)

Ethash   40Mh / s   44Mh / S   44MH / s   67MH / s

Zhash   73Mh / s   99Mh / s   111MH / s   327Mh / s

BeamHash3   18.9H / s   26.5H / s   30H / s   88H / s

MTP   2.6MH / s   3.9MH / s   4,4MH / S   13MH / s

GRIN32   0.4H / s   0.65H / s   0.8H / s   2.36H / s
 

I'm thinking the play may be to flip a few while supply is short to finance keeping one or two and a few amd's.

other algos at 3x hashrate is a no brainer hehe.

let's go boys, time to raid the stores 

Count out mtp from equation, zcoin had block halving few days+they should change algo by end of year.There is no other big mtp coin atm

but the new Algorithm could be good.

for me these are a small improvement over amd 5600 and amd 5700 cards.  but that is always subject to change.

Curious as to the reason/s you want the 3090 more than the 3080?

I run two thread ripper rigs.  I would not mind having a real state of the art rig.
More for bragging then for profit.

the less state of the art gpus running out there, the more chance of ROI, plus the earlier it runs the better. just like ASICs but better since nvidia and amd does not run them in farms before selling to the public heheh

even if does not ROI 100%, at 50% ROI you are still a winner (at small amount like 2 gpu only)...but we all hope for the best

a x4.5 to x5 vs 1080ti on other algos, is a winner for me and might be worth the risk, not "all in" for me still weighing and projecting things (subject to change).

Yeah the farm is loaded with a lot of gear.

but I always like to run a few state of the art pc rigs at home.

Yeah I would run them for a year then sell one to upgrade to next thread ripper.

You buying these numbers ?

"As for the mining performance itself, the GeForce RTX 3080 has a mining rate of 73-74 MH/s out of the box on Ethereum DaggerHashimoto algorithm. The performance reaches up to 82-84 MH/s and overclocking the card leads to a maximum performance output of up to 92-93 MH/s. Currently, the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT outputs around 50-54 MH/s while the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti delivers up to 54 MH/s."

https://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-ethereum-crypto-mining-performance-leaks-out/



I've read that there will be overclocked version of this card in the future, of course you could probably overclock these cards...

yeah i think 75 to 90 is likely.

and i think running at 160-180 watts will let them do closer to the 75 and pushing at 225 watts will bring 90ish mh

personally my best guess is one of them a little better them two amd 5600 or 5700

That article quotes an article below that goes into a little more depth on overclocks and wattage for eth. 
https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-ethereum-daggerhashimoto-mining-performance

Tom's hardware seems to confirm it

"We grabbed NiceHashminer and ran the benchmark mode, which failed on most of the hashing algorithms.

It did work on Dagger Hashimoto (Ethash), however, generating a result of 80 MH/s. That's nearly double the 2080 Ti's 43 MH/s and more than double the 2080 FE's 34.6 MH/s"

MSI has the highest overclock card available at launch tomorrow.  All the reviews so far have been of the founders edition.

Yes the performance of these new gen GPUs is pretty impressive from the GPUs of the 2017-2018s era. I wondering if Nvidia will do a miner version of these GPUs and make them available for the retail public.

There are multiple reasons in which it could benefit Nvidia. First way is that usually they have a very short warranty so they don't need to worry about miners buying the retail GPUs and claiming warranty after 2 years or so. Second reason is that when mining becomes unprofitable, these GPUs will have low demand so the supply won't be high for gamers buying the GPUs and the second hand market prices will remain stable. Third reason could be the environmental impact. The retail box uses alot of cardboard and packaging, and they would sell a pack of x10 since most miners don't require the retail boxes which just take up space.

I'm going to pick one up tomorrow from microcenter.  They're limiting one per household according to their website.   supposedly wildrigmulti supports it.   I'll try tomorrow.

They are still limiting the purchase quantity?


This reminds me of how back in the early iPhone days like the iPhone 4 or 4S or 5 they would have a limit of max quantity of 2. And you would see ads all over Craigslist where people would pay you $50 to buy the 2 phones for them. Basically the guy would meet up with you outside the Apple store, he would tell you to buy 2x of a White iPhone 4 or Black iPhone 4 and you would pay either by Credit card or cash. And then he would pay you right outside the store to give it to them.

The workers there pretty much saw what was going on and there is nothing they could do. What happened after to those iPhones? They basically got sold on Craigslist for double the price or they got exported to Russia or China. Crazy how the demand was back then for iPhones.

However I am wondering why they are limiting it for GPUs since there is no "GPU gold mine rush" like there was in 2017.

gamers vs miners getting their hands on these cards is a "gpu gold mine rush" kind of scenario already LOL, there is also a supply issue this early on 3080.

They're probably limiting because of the pandemic.  They're considered essential (They've been open since the beginning of the lock down) because everyone now needed a computer, or two or more.   limited supplies.

I don't think they are limiting because of the pandemic. Usually when stores are limiting due to COVID19 its usually the amount of people inside the store so its not crowded or they are limiting sales on certain essential and low stock goods like toilet paper, hand sanitzier, Lysol wipes, etc. A gaming GPU is no way considered essential. You don't need a high end GPU like that to go to school or do business.

I also checked my Craiglist area and there isn't too many overpriced GPUs listed yet. You could essentially buy up an entire farm and pay good second hand prices for GPUs. I think unless BTC breaks $20K or ETH breaks $ 1400 and we are seeing $10/day/GPU I don't think there will be any GPU shortages yet.

Had a nice surprise this morning... opened my Metamask wallet (via Uniswap) and Uniswap gave me 400 UNI tokens.

With all this DEFI craze, and those Sushi, Kimchii, Hotdogs taking liquidity out from Uniswap, it was a matter of time when Uniswap has its own token.

Anyways, that 400 UNIs I swapped them for ETH at 2.52$ per UNI and got   will get 2 ETH and change with a $9 GAS fee (still processing hope it fails, because UNI now is 3.40)

If you havent opened up your Metmask wallet for a long time.... go check if you have been given UNI tokens (if you are Uniswap user).
