I have 1080 and 1060 running - that setup doesn't reach 800 sol/s.

btw DAG level increasing so lower memory models (with 4GB or less) will have reduced efficiency in mining.

Benchmarks, submitted by users.

Those numbers are higher than stock.

Usually those are already

1. BIOS modded
2. Overclocked

I run 2x 1070 and 1x 1050 Ti now.

All on stock, gets about 800+ sols / s compared to my 1080 + 1060 rig doing 700 sols / s.

You mean like this?

At 1.3kwh, you're running around 2 - 3 times a 1HP airconditioner running 24/7.

Doesn't matter which one - just saying that kind of wattage vs actual usage.

800W is like 1 - 2 airconditioners already too.

But if you have 3 cards right, 1 card fail at least 2 cards still running.

Oh and about the figure, GTX 1060 6GB draws j ust about 100w, so it's actually around 300w only if you run 3 cards. Even less if you adjust the power target.

Not really. 1060 being at the lower price point would be much easier to sell off.

But people will still want. 1050 Ti lowest I got is 10Mh/s, highest reported 12Mh/s on stock with Zotac.

If I have Nvidia card I will go for ZCash, for the reasons you mentioned. LOL Mh/s not so good leh.

Because they work for different things?

Nowadays hot coins are Zcash and Ethereum, both are ASIC-resistant - how to use ASIC miner to mine?

For those who are interested, here's what I get with my Nvidia cards

Zotac GTX 1080 Mini	160W	390 Sols/s
Galax GTX 1070 Katana	100W	350 Sols/s
Zotac GTX 1060 AMP 6GB	100W	275 Sols/s
ASUS GTX 1050 Ti Expedition	55W	228 Sols/s

*reading based on the Excavator CLI when doing Zcash mining*
**I'm going by the lowest reading seen. My GTX 1070 card is running at 100W confirm sure

I do not have GTX 1080 Ti.

How about you do some research first and let us know?

People talk Cryptomining here you come talk Cloud Mining.

Let's stick to the topic please.

Yes I did. What about it?

L3+ is for LTC.

You can't compare it to GPU based mining because they work with different coins.

For ETH i would go with 8GB model of AMD cards.

I don't. I just mine Zcash to convert to BTC.

Sorry ah, you comparing Apple to Apple?

I thought you were asking about Mining BTC directly? This was your post.

However the Antminer L3+ doesn't mine BTC.

Look at your screenshot, what does it mine? SCRYPT. What is SCRYPT for? LTC (Litecoin). BTC (Bitcoin) uses SHA-256.

And how is it Apple to Apple comparison when both are priced so differently?

Let me give you a better comparison.

-----------------------
ANTMiner S9 - 14Th/s - Price USD 3,000. Makes 330 USD worth of BTC a month.

6x RX 580 8GB - A little less than USD 3,000. Makes 601.08 USD worth of ETH a month, can be converted to BTC.
-----------------------

ANTMiner locally not available, you want to buy? Wait, let them ship. And warranty / breakdown? Straight KO, you have to send back.

Compare that to a 6 GPU setup, 1 card breakdown you still mine and all parts available locally.

Mining trend ends? OK sell them all off.

See the difference now?

And also why on earth are you comparing using GTX 1080 Ti? That's like putting the not-so-good GPU miner to the comparison. Price to performance ratio GTX 1080 Ti isn't as good as the lower end cards, which is why you don't see people flocking to buy GTX 1080 Ti.

Also you must note the problem with Nicehash is that it uses % here % there and it's hard to gauge.

See it better now why people don't use ASIC miners?

SUMMARY
- Using the right parts, you get better cost to profit ratio.
- GPU mining are using components readily available (off the shelf)
- Should anything happen to the unit, GPU mining setup's components are easily replaced and can move on / resume operation with ease, not so with expensive ASIC miners.
- ASIC miner is not readily available.

Want coins go buy direct. Even with 6 of the highest end GPU on your rig that costs a car, you still won't get much coin after a month.

No ah, coming in at higher price.

But I was using RX 580 as an example because it's the best card, especially for ETH.

My RX 580 8GB should be coming in this week yay!
