Hi GTX 1070 miners,

here are my 5 cent concerning MH/s rates for my mining rigs.
I bought 12 ASUS GTX Strix OC 8GB and built 2 rigs. 10 Cards have Micron RAM, 2 have Samsung. In Asus forum many people were pissed of the Micron RAM because it obviously has worse specifications concerning overclocking than Samsung has.
I can state this. In spite of this issue i investigated optimal settings for overclocking to get a Hashrate of about 180 MH/s for each mining rig. What can i say: It worked for me - also with Micron RAM.
Here are my settings with MSI Afterburner (great tool).

Power Limit = 70%
Core Clock = +25%
Mem Clock = +650 (worked stable for all Micron Cards for more than 24h) For a couple of hours i pushed them up to +700. This also worked for a while but at the end this was too risky while sleeping. Won't get any BSOD result when i wake up in the morning.
Both rigs pull 1550 W out of the wall (Kill-A-Meter)

I do Dual Mining with Claymore 9.5 (ETH + SIA) on nanopool. The Micron GPUs deliver 29.7 to 30.1 Mhs

On the other hand there are 2 GPU's with Samsung RAM in my second rig. The other 4 have Micron. Thanks to Afterburner you are able to OC each single GPU. The Microns are overclocked with the settings above. The 2 Samsung GPUs can be pushed up to +800 which leads into 9.216 Mhz. (Afterburner divides this by 2).

I think these results are not that bad, compared to AMD 480's or 580's.
Happy mining
