What are your preferred settings for getting max performance out of your cards? You probably tune them down a bit like me due to heat issues?

Also does anyone know what the ideal ambient temp is for operating GPUs?

Depends on the rig and the card - most of them I have to turn the TDP down a little to keep them in the 70-75C range when it's cool (like this past week) and under 80 when it's hot (this summer) without going past 85% fan.
Some I've got down as low as 70% or so, but those are mostly in rigs I've upgraded to "4 card part-riser" and need to keep power consumption down to my target 6 amp max draw for infrastructure limit reasons.

The Aorus 1080 ti models though are beasts - can run them at full TDP with 70-80% fan even when it's HOT and they stay plenty cool, as long as there is plenty of airspace in front of the fans.

Profitability has been sliding up a bit this week - seems like something is pulling a fairly large amount of network hashrate out of ZCash this week, more than making up for the minor price drop.
Not a HUGE jump, but noticeable....

The ideal AMBIENT temp for operating GPUs is probably around freezing, but I'm not real interested in moving to northern Greenland or Siberia or that recent split-off northern Canadian province to achieve that year-round....

A ton of mining power has been pouring over to zen, Mona, and vert

Whats your max efficient sols / settings for that on the AORUS TI

I hate even revealing this but Voskcoin you seem like a cool dude...the Aorus 1080 ti are the gods of 1080 tis. There is no better card in the nvidia lineup. I have only managed to buy 12 and they are not cheap but they easily achieve 725 sols with barely any tweaking. The downside is they are almost always on backorder or price gouging is over 800 usd. If you can catch some at 740 you got a good deal. I wish I had 200 of these in my farm I cant say enough good about them and Im not even a gigabyte fan until I discovered that card.

haha thanks xD - Which model as there's two?
As you said they were the cheapest card at the time I bought the pair around 740 iirc, since that time theyve been out of stock or 800 dollars zz
