GTX 1070 + nicehash bad results?

[patriotaki]

Hello all
im trying to start mining with my GTX 1070 GIGABYTE G1 with nicehash
i think i dont get good results.. my friend with  R9 390 gets around 2.50EUR/day and me 1.50EUR/day

Check the pictures below

AMD cards are better at mining

Nothing. My 1070 only gets $1.85 USD a day. Thank ETH for crashing

oh..damn i sold my 390 haha

Depends on market conditions. Nicehash will switch to whatever is best for your card. AMD is stronger on Etherium, but nvidia isn't bad and is comparable ball park on zcash I think it was.

nope. Zcash dropped to hell.

GET VEGA NUM NUM, ITS BETTER

is this even a win considering you are reducing your cards life span with the 24/7 usage and the electricity cost?

Vega is meant to take a beating its why it has high voltage, while nvidia is meant for a good lifetime of maybe 3-4 years

The 1070 is actually the best performer per wattage, even if it doesn't have the highest hash, and since you already had the card I assume its all good, but dang it sucks to be a gamer right now for those looking. Endure brother and sisters the storm will pass

nope this doesnt even make sense, the amount of power a gpu draws depends on the amount of cuda cores (more cuda cores -->more amps) and the clock speed (higher clock -->Voltage) so having a higher end gpu clocked down to match a lower end gpu that runs on a higher clock speed would be a big win in terms of efficiency for the high end card.

My gpu (aorus gtx 1080 ti) limit from 100% to 50% power (125W~) would lower my clock from around 1950mhz to 1500mhz~, so i am losing one quarter of my performance by slicing my power draw in half, with this setup the card would perform around as good as a decent gtx 1080 with a much better efficiency (180w compared to 125W~)

You 100% right, I was talking about out of the box has per watt performance, but if your mining there is no way you wouldn't optimize (or at least no reason you wouldn't want to)

glad you got my point but from a cost to performance standpoint for mining getting something like a 1050 ti 2gb would probably make the most sense

Actually with the pricing right now I think the 1050 ti is actually the fastest ROI

 

@Tiwaz Haha you are right. Didnt read before commenting
