Hello, i want to start mining, tell me please
I already broke my brain Smiley) What to choose
2x 1070
or
3x 480/580 8gb
or
3x1060 6gb


What coin are you looking to mine?

you could go:

3x 480/580 8gb or 3x 470/570 8gb if you want to mine ETH or XMR

or 2x 1070 or 3x1060 6gb if you want to mine ZEC or LBC

also I would recommend making 6x gpu rigs as you will get more hash for your $. 

Hello, thank you for answer!  I am searching  for the  most situable variant for now and near future to build 4-6 rig with time . I think that 1070 is more powerfull and effective, isnt't it ?

But if isn't no difference in  profit between 1070 and 580\480 ...
I will take more cheaper gp .


It depends on how expensive your power is.  Mine is rather expensive.

currently:

my 6x 1070 rigs mining ZEC generate $420 a month - elec costs each ( rigs cost ~$2500 each)

my 6x 1060 rigs mining ZEC generate $297 a month - elec costs each ( rigs cost ~$1900 each)

for AMD I only have one 4x 470 (all with custom roms) rig mining ETC (note ETC is abnormally high right now).  It generates $293 a month - elec costs ( rig cost $1150)




it llok like you were better to go with amd, with 6 x 470 would be equal to 6 x 1070
