Guys, I know AMD is the way to go with mining intense coin. I have 2 rx580's, 2 rx570's and 6 vega 64's being shipped to my house soon. I am running a couple of nvidia rigs now and wanted to get started with mining intense. I know they aren't as effective but is it still possible to mine intense with them? I am getting all of my shares rejected using ccminer. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. #newbproblems

It is possible for sure just not as good.  I haven't used ccminer ... have to nvidia cards..  But there are much better algo's to mine with those nvidia cards,  I would mine something different with those.   Zclassic?  PascalLite(PASL),  i don't know what else but there are some hidden gems too....

1060s at the right price are not a terrible value for ITNS... by right price I mean like $189 or so (circa Black Friday).

The new "all in one" XMR-STAK works very well on NVidia (heck it does good on AMD too). Also does CPU at  the same time in one program.

But yah AMD cards rock for ITNS.

Oh?  What kind of speeds can a 1060 pull with XMR-STAK?  I've only tried other miners and wasn't even aware that xmr-stak worked with nvidia cards...  Is it faster than the other currently available public miners?

It's a new version:

1060s at ~80% power and a very mild OC can pull ~475 or so.

Also... power draw is quite low.

For reference. My system with 5x 1060 3GB and an X5670 Xeon CPU (running 4 of 6 cores) mining ~2370 H/S is drawing about 435 watts at the wall.

Another system I have with 3x RX480 / 1x RX570 (no BIOS mods / no OC) + X5660 Xeon CPU (also 4 of 6 cores) mining ~2430 H/S is drawing about 560 watts at the wall.
