Based on? I don't see it unless there's news I'm missing.

Noticed that as well, but to be honest I won't sell these rigs, can you imagine how angry customers would get with false hopes and too high expectations.

Then above that the amount of work each rig requires, you'll have no life left.

How many rigs you got currently? And you got more on the way??

Yeah I'm in the same boat, want to get my 1000 and then see if I carry on with it. You using Nanopool? Dual mining it?

Looking to move my Ripple to Poloniex too. Currently have it in Gatehub, which works fine, but I think Poloniex might be a better platform for trading. It's been quite up and down lately, want to see if I can capitalize on this.

What's the best starting card for under R5k right now?

What's the best starting card for under R5k right now?

You can buy my GTX970

I believe the GTX 1060 6GB cards are pretty good value for money as they are light on running costs and within your mentioned budget

Ja, I'd look for the 6GB version with 2 fans..

EDIT:

The nicehash calculator has the 970 producing more than the 1060 6GB.. What is the 970 doing for you ATM? What'd you replace it with?

Just make sure that they indeed do have stock or as indicated on purchase to order, because I heard that many orders are cancelled by some online retailer’s due to stock shortages.

Sent you a PM regarding your previous Q

I bought a Zotac GTX 1070 from GTX Gaming last week:

I currently have the GTX970 set to 55% power limit and the 1070 to 60%, as above that the returns aren't worth the extra power draw IMHO.



It does mainly Equihash; the rest it does fairly poorly in

EDIT: A friend of mine has a 1060 6GB and he pulls more per day than my GTX970 does. I did however read somewhere that the GTX970 is crippled when using it to mine on Windows 10 due to some limitation on the WDDM framework, which is why the majority of 970 users have them running on Windows 7 which gives more H/s. This is all hearsay, of course

What's a good pool to mine Eth? Nicehash works well, but I would like to get some Eth in itself too. Is it worth mining? (2 x 1050 ti)

This is a Gigabyte 1070 WindForce, stable. It was a test.
