Just started to mine 3 weeks ago.. using a single GTX 1080TI.. currently mining ZCASH, not mining 24 hours, because I do game with the PC...

manage to tune the card to mine at 630 Sol/s at 150W-160W.. temp stays below 70 Celsius.. using BitFinex to trade ZCASH to BTC , then transfer BTC to Coinhako.

Pending RM208 withdraw to Maybank from CoinHako after selling my BTC.


just purchased a 1070 for RM2k.. trying to do a 2 card mining ..see how much I can make..

nice hash rate.. assuming ur getting 700 sol/s for the 1080 TI and 600 sol/s for the 1080. Whats the power consumption per card for the 1080ti to get the 700 sol/s... I set mine at 80% Power limit which can reach 680-700 sol/s roughly translate to 200Watts....sometimes I set power limit to be 65-70% to run the card cooler and quieter which give me around 600-630 sol/s which is roughly around 150Watts..

using the --pec code in the ewbf miner to get the watts reading

nice temps u've got there.

i think this applies if you are mining ethereum..

I'm mining on 3 Nvidia cards(1080ti and 2 1070), but i'm mining Zcash. Zcash is more towards core clock speed..overclocking the memory does not improve the hashrate (Sol/s) ..but overclocking the core clock will benefit the hashrate.


I've tested by overclocking and underclocking my memory speed, the hashrate remains the same...


but if i switch and mine ethereum, then memory speed will come to play...

zcash is using equihash algo.. nicehash sometimes mine using equihash algo but i find using ewbf miner will get better performance..

like me, i mine zcash, deposit to bitfinex wallet. and do exchange zec to btc or zec to eth...

that's what I did on equihash, i'll boost the gpu clock, decrease power limit around 75-80% , I wont do anything on memory clock..

if I want a quite efficient miner but sacrificing my hashrate, i'll set 65% power limit, +210Mhz gpu clock. This will get me roughly around 630Sol/s at 145watts on the 1080ti, and around 400 Sol/s at 90-100watts on the 1070..

but if you use nicehash, they tend to switch algo , so its better to boost both gpu and memory clock ..

Sols are hashrate for zcash, its like MHs for ethereum.. usually Sols is the same as Hs

reducing power and increasing the clock speed is not reducing performance..unless you reduce power limit and don't increase gpu clock..then you'll get reduce performance...its about getting the right balance of performance/watt for the card

btw if u use nicehash, try using ur cpu for mining too, I tried using my ryzen 1600, getting extra 0.80usd from the cpu alone ..

I'm mining using my gaming rig, so when i'm not gaming , i'll use the cpu + 3gpu to mine... but when I game, i'll just mine with 2 gpu..

u can use ewbf miner and join miningpool..

zcash.miningpoolhub.com is a good place to start, or even flypool has their zcash mining pool too..

i find ewbf miner will give extra sols compared to nicehash..

btw 1 sols = 1hs.. so 272H/s is same as 272sol/s
