EVGA 1080ti SC2 68% power, 50core 50mem is doing about 850-875h/s on cryptonight_heavy (Saronite) with xmr stak , win 10, nvidia 391 driver

how much is that in cash each day?

I still get over 2 usd a day mining zec with my 1080ti's

Yeah, I don't think mining Cryptonight v7 makes sense with Nvidias today. It made sense $-wise for a few days after the fork, but not at the moment.

I just use the xmr-stak version I have compiled: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3264773.msg34028507#msg34028507

but im using it on 1070 and earlier cards.... I mean, all the way down to the 400 series; since power is included with my space rental....

It may not make sense dollar per dollar as it is valued right now;

but....

it will make sense as time goes on as I see a true long term value storage in XMR compared to its earlier days. They have proven they are trying to fight asics/fpga's, and that adds a huge tick to long term value in my eyes.

BTC is different of course for obvious reasons, but that's a whole different topic.

I see wavering profitability from the algos I have held true to over the last two years.

new ones seem to bite me in the butt profitability wise (had I not switched my gear to check profitability), and the previously reliable algos are seeming like there are some sort of unknown hardware bloating hashrate.

So, Ill still stick with my XMR plan; I think it will be worth more as time goes on. ~300 seems a touch low for its utility and difference from BTC. I can see it used for personal micro transactions over some of the other coins out there.

Now; I have personally never mined zec past a 2 hour test when zec was ~2 months old. It never fit the bill for me; I made 4x on skien for example. It's not a blockchain I am willing to maintain. My bandwidth at home is rather limited (cellular), and I don't want to deal with the exchange process personally. I dont see enough people using zec for person-to-person transactions. they are usually via a 3rd (usually internet) party.

Can someone point me towards a good equihash windows binary/source that is zero devfee and somewhat efficient? (bleeding edge not necessary, but I dont want antiquated) If it needs to be recompiled with no devfee; I may be able to handle that like I did with XMR-stak.

I don't want to switch to using SMOS.... A: not gonna pay the fee for the OS for one machine; and second, I am trying to keep inside windows so I can incorporate equihash into my mminer batch. Sometime in the future Ill be giving SMOS a whirl; but that's when im done playing with these antiquated cards, fully comprehend all the nuances of ATI cards (getting there... made much progress), and i am buying a lot of GPU's to put into boards/rigs I have ready and waiting to be populated.

Sorry for the novel; I finally had more than a few words to say Wink
