perfect time for the proper investors to buy in
smart money like me got in at .16

ive been enjoying this dip - buyin moar
repubs like crypto
The 1070Ti is far from the best mining GPU, lol. For ETH, XMR, ETN, BTC, LCN and way more, the best singular GPU is the Vega 64. Especially for Cryptonight algorithm based coins.
And if these mining GPU's had drastic advantages for hashing algorithms, the resell would be lower but the demand would be extravagant.
so that argument saying mining GPU's aren't practical is wrong. Especially because companies that make ASIC miners don't have damn near the capability of making compact, high efficient processors for specific functions. So if there were specifically miner designated cards, they could probably destroy current GPU's for hashing.
The only problem for all of us that are speculating, we don't know shit for details about what Nvidia actually intends on doing...
@Wayne you dont even have a mining rig faggot. the 1070ti is the most efficient when you put power cost into the equation. ie the biggest baddest gpus are not power efficient lil brainlet.
and if you look at the hashrates on mining gpus, (if you actually researched before you talked shit) youll quickly discover that non-mining gpus out clock them majorly
and asic mining is for dumbfags
not to mention that you dont even understand mining at all
asic miners can only mine sha-256 coins / etc. they cant mine coins that gpus can exclusively
with gpu mining you can mine literally almost EVERYTHING with asic you can only mine ASIC coins
never talk to me about mining again
roasted and toasted
look at me, I don't even have a pascal GPU, but hey, I know everything about the 1070 Ti!
the 1070 Ti is most definitely the most efficient, it has the same heatsink as the 1080, it's space efficient, and most importantly, high yields. I wish I had gone with a couple 1070 Ti's rather than my 6 1060's
the best 1070ti ive found is the zotac mini's - just 1 8pin instead of 2 and they clock better than others
probably shit for overclocking, but that's alright
who do you go through @SchloppyDoggo?
I mine and have plenty knowledge as to the most cost effective cards for different hashrates, lol. Don't try and debunk my argument and say I don't know what I'm talking about without numbers. @SchloppyDoggo Also, there are ASIC miners for other algorithms rather than just SHA256 so that statement is flat out wrong. Also saying you found a more efficient version of the same GPU is retarded, the only thing that draws power is the GPU itself, the particular model (evga ftw, MSI aero, etc) has no effect on power efficiency. If it had a higher base clock at factory clocks, then you could adjust down to account for power and the voltage will automatically regulate back down. Also, a flashed Vega 64 can get 2000h/s for cryptonight. The 1070ti can't get more than 700. Even if the Vega is drawing 2x as much wattage if is way more cost effective, especially given relative market cost.
So don't shit talk me lol
you are one ignorant faggot
And note, if you did GPU mining, you'd know you get a mining performance advantage from overclocking the VRAM. If you have a Vega 64 with Samsung HBM, you've fuckin scored
dont ever @ me again. thanks.
Calling me an ignorant faggot but can't prove me wrong with numbers, can you @SchloppyDoggo ?
Thought not
>calls me ignorant >everything said by them is wrong
The only thing you said that was accurate was that GPU's are more versatile because they can mine most any algorithm. Congrats, you stated common knowledge for an entry level miner.
Please don't argue against me, thanks. I only argue with people who actually know about the subject and rather than get petty and try insulting the other person, has a respectable discussion.
Also don't make arguments on a open discussion that insults other people if you can't handle being argued against, makes you look like a jerkwad. You don't have the balls to respond with an actual fact-based counter-argument because you don't have one.
Bitmain's ASICs are great, but they're hot, they're expensive, and they have no resale value
About 1 year ago, something like the Antminer S9 would've been a great investment, especially for the return you'd have by now.
If there was a really well priced cryptonight ASIC, I'd probably be on it asap.
you spend 1200-2000 dollars, depending on if it's a preorder, or if you buy it afterwards. They take 1200W of power, and they're good for about a year and a half, the S9 doesn't make enough money for it to be profitable anymore, in most cases
the difficulty of cryptocurrency mining has increased exponentially
