I notice that many AMD Gpu's are available for regular price now. Are you guys still buying rigs? Or is it at a point where it's not very wise to build more rigs?
Hi, my thinking it's way with nVidia cards only,
The reasons:
1. Lower voltage.
2. Better cooling systems.
3. Better to overclocking.
4. The price not so much upper.
Right now on the ~500mhs it's 2.5eth per month,
15 GPU's of Nvidia 1060 6GB - around 355 mhs and the price for cards was ~4500 euros + ~2000 euros for PSU's and others.
5 GPU's of AMD Cards - 138 mhs - the price was ~1500 euros + ~700 euros for PSU's and others
Total:8700euro
Per month:644,625 euros
Electricity: 100euros
Placement: 80euros
Total profit:464,62euro
So right now it's not so profitable to build new rigs,actually payback of GPUs around 13-18 monthes. (And it's with low voltage cards. With Red i think it will up to 20-24 month)
what you are failing to factor in is the 580s are beasts at dual mining , if you have adequate cooling a good 580 can do 30mhs eth and 95 lbr for 150 watt
that 95 lbry is basically nearly 3 times what i can get out of a 1070, and the crazy thing is 95 lbr is bascially close to what you get solo mining lbry on a 580 anyways so you are truly truly dual mining.
me im still buying 580s 8gb at $300 but only certain brands that are easiest to mod and have consistent mem quality
