I have a gtx 1070, which bitcoin mining program would best take advantage of this graphics card?

by not mining bitcoin with a GPU.

eh, ive been mining for about a week an a half with nicehash and have made like 16 mBTC so its been going well, but the price of the hashing power went down recently so I was curious if there was a bitcoin mining program for pascal that would work well

but with bitcoin and a GPU you'll burn more power than you'll make bitcoin.

running the computer at full power costs about a dollar a day and im making more than that, so are you saying that with the nicehash miner im supposed to be losing money, or that if i were to try straight bitcoin mining that i would be losing money

please buy a wattmeter, stick your computer in it, and then use math.

Nicehash mines Zcash or whatever is most profitable for your GPU and converts it to mBTC automatically. If you were to actually mine straight bitcoin you would lose tons of money.

I'm mining zcash with a 1080, the best miner currently is EWBF's zec miner 0.3.4b.

You can either use nicehash or use claymores dual miner or genoil. I have used all 3 of these and with a 1070, your looking at around $4/5 a day.

Agreed, For beginners, nicehash is the way to go 100%.

My 1070s generate about $4/5 a day each but yes the PPD dropped recently. I was at a steady $6+ PPD per card.

Another tip with a GTX1070.  Lower the TDP as far as you can while aiming for decent MH/s and stability.

The cards can pull decent MH/s with lower TDP.

Go down till you see the chart were they set the TDP target in MSI afterburner.  Tweak away.
