Between P106-100 and gtx1060 6gb which is a better investment? I heard they are roughly the same when it comes to power consumption for mining ETH, is there any advantage over the other?

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

1. It depends on the price you are getting the cards so go for the cheapest
2. The p106 has better hashrate than the gtx1060 when mining ETH
3. You can easily sell gtx1060 to gamers later but not the P106-100

I helped a friend set up his mining rig with gtx1060 and this p106-100 and they all perform nearly the same, some 1060s get 26mh and some gets 24mh max while the p106-100 gets 21mh to 25mh so the difference isn't that much

It is exactly the same gpu - only difference, the p106-100 has no monitor connection. |

Yes p106-100 has no display port or VGA port and it will die been a mining card only, you can't use them for PC gaming so selling them later on will be extremely hard, you can only sell to miners and that's pretty much it. |

I am not buying your old GPU. |
Throw some "shit" and see what sticks.

Now it may not be worth buying the P106-100 and gtx1060 6gb because they are very old. gtx1060 has proven to be very reliable, but very hard to find in good condition. P106-100 has been mining for 4 years. Buying these video cards now doesn't make much sense, unless you are offered a good price with a payback of 4-5 months |

Actually the hash for p106 must be around 29 to 31mhs |
Solving blocks can't be solved without my rigs.

Max Hashrate at DAG EPOCH 0 can be around 24 - 25, but at the actually EPOCH 430, you get around 20 - 23 mh depends on your OC. |

For the same price you can get rx 480 580 with 8gb memory which is still doing 30-31mhs easy.
And also gtx 1000series life about to end just like gtx 900 did.

Actually the hash for p106 must be around 29 to 31mhs Stanlo asked the question: "Between P106-100 and gtx1060 6gb which is a better investment?" 24 megahashes can be obtained from these video cards, 25 mechahesh at high memory frequencies, which should not be done on old video cards if you want to mine Ethereum before changing its algorithm. |

Why this cards? They are the worst in Nvidia series cards that can mine crypto coins today, you can buy rx570 with same money that can get you a gtx1060 6gb and rx570 can do 30-32mh till date, the type of Nvidia cards I can get for mining is 1650 super upward |

In other cases, 27-30, depending on the manufacturer and the cooling system. But the prospects for mining new coins from these video cards are very weak |
