The Asic thread

Litecp is just under 0.07 each. Might need to move over to prohash it seems.
I got one payment of BCC this morning, not much but it should hopefully go up in value.

Should also probably change to mine more Litecoin though.
 
Was thinking some 1070s, if I manage to find some. The profitability of the 1080ti are pretty good when compared to the other cards, no doubt, but like you mention, they tend to draw a bit of juice, and I figure I might be able to pick up some 1070s for cheaper.

Thoughts on AMD cards instead? RX480s still worth the bother? RX580?

So I had a quick look on nicehash this morning, 6 x 1070 = R306pd after power costs, 4 x 1080ti = R312pd after power costs, so its a pretty close race, my only worry would be what kind of PSU I would need for the 4 x 1080ti, the pricing of 4 x 1080ti vs 6 x 1070 is also pretty close.

Edit: My 1080ti in my gaming rig was actually showing R116pd this morning.

Did you compare 1070 ti vs 1080 ti. Might get better win at lower power

1070 = 50.93 ZAR
1070ti = 51.85 ZAR

This is at R2.06KW/h, not sure how accurate that is.

For the difference in price between those two it just isn't worth it.

Not accurate. Under clock power and overclock memory. Most stats are at stock. You get 20% more out of ti with 5% more power

Are you mining with one? Would be interesting to see current earnings per card, or if anyone else is mining, what are your daily earnings?

I am installing two tomorrow. One in each rig so 5 1070 plus one ti in each. Getting 6 evga 1070 on 10th . will be able to compare properly

Awesome, keen to see the earnings, I am waiting for some money to clear so I can buy some more GPU's, maybe another 1070 rig, although the prices for the 1070ti on Amazon makes it very tempting.

Thoughts on the Giga G1 1070 cards? I see they are on a (sort of) special at Evetech.
 
Any of you D3 guys checked whattomine this morning, a coin called "Prime-XI" is reporting $18. Thats double the nicehash reported earnings

Sho.... thanks for that... let me check out multipool. Any idea on a good pool to mine it at?
*EDIT* I'm doing it on EZPool - very quick setup, no signup required. I downloaded the QT wallet and now just need to sign up with a suitable exchange - YoBit, Novaexchange or Cryptopia. Any suggestions there?

Nope. Never heard of that coin before. I was just posting for you guys :D. I am not a D3 owner. But I might just get one on the cheap side if I can get my hands on one

You can send it to my cryptopia account :D I'll keep it safe for you

Ta for the tip, I'll post results after 24 hours!
 
I might take some if I stick with the ASIC mining, looks good.

Those are neat though they taper a little - assuming to make them fit 120mm ducting. I've seen a few for sale on olx / gumtree. I think I am currently using 150mm ducting.
 
Competition for the S9:
