I've got more or less the same settings and more or less the same hash rates. If you want to go lower than 90w I suspect you need to start tweaking the core voltages too
 
I'm having issues with my rig 6 X RX470's

Restarting every 10 minutes

Temp is not the issue as they run below 78 deg.

How big is your pagefile? I had random restarts in nicehash and eventually I set the pagefile to 40GB and it has been fine since (knock on wood).

edit: I'm assuming hardware is not the issue (mobo, PSU size, etc)

So which 1070 would be the best to buy? Would it be worth importing it from amazon?
 
So... I finally went nicehash after struggling to get Ethereum wallet to update it's node for ages.

Now that I see I can make $3 a day with my R9 290, I figured I could make double that for the same power draw if I get a GTX 1080 Ti :D
Not the best for mining, but it would scratch my gaming itch as well as pay for itself in 6-ish months?

Also, I could run both that and my R9 290. Again, not ideal, but I would still make a small profit (My Corsair HX850 should cope). How's my reasoning so far?

At the moment I have no desire to go full Thor and spend my life savings on a rig.

A gaming rig that pays for itself, that is the life man! Game at night, make money in the day.
 
Anyone have a mining rig running off battery + solar?
I'm thinking of this.
I have no illusions of it being able to run full time without Eskom, but I'd like to cut Eskom down to maybe 25% of the day max.
