I forgot it, that's right

excavator

is there any pool for that?. I like the chart.

but that's cap temperature, it's not the  GPU or VRAM temperature reported by the drivers.  In thermal maps the GPU is the hottest region of the card, and caps are surely several degrees cooler.

2012 I know.... but holy ...!

Where this 'fact' comes from?. Even working temperature of CPU depend on each generation. No air-cooled 1080ti will run @70 C in any demanding game. You can argue that's only for short sessions, but the world is full of crazy gamers miners.  Many of them run in SLI, where the card on the top will reach  85C easily. 

I think the lifetime  depends on the card quality. I  put my money in a hight quality board, like these of FTW3/Srix/Lighting/etc,  running at 75C 24/365 instead of a cheap card running at 65C  24/365.

All this discussion is a bit silly.  As long as  the card is under warranty it's a manufacturer's problem, not our business,  to make sure  that the card is not fried under extreme conditions while the warranty is active.






 

From my experience :  FTW3 hybrid >  Asus Strix OC>  MSI Trio > Aorus Extreme Edition  Waterforce.

The FTW3 hybrid has the crappiest fan I've ever found in a high end card,  but it's sooo good, so well done. For a small fee the warranty is extended to 5 years.  I'm in love with it.

The Aorus Extreme Edition  Waterforce has been a complete disappointment. It's about 5% slower than the air cooled Asus Strix OC.

It can not be true. Otherwise most of us will get new 1080ti cards in one or two years before the warranty expires.

Maybe when Volta arrives BTC is worth 0.001$.?. At current ROI waiting for Volta  is a joke. Our real concerns must be that bitcoin does not crashes before reaching ROI and that is converted to fiat, and that the top list at coinmarket does not get filled by non-mineable coins. 

  either '12' or 'what i can mine' does not fit in the same statement.

 A general comment. There is no need to ask every minute here, or run any calculator, to know the hottest coin of last second/minute/day, just go to a pool and look at the algo with more miners, there  is the best paying algo/coin. To know the best coin of the past is extremely easy.

Do you mine the shitcoins in autoexchange pools to BTC, or mine to wallets in shit-exchanges  and  convert later them?. Obviously, the second method well done  has much more  potential, but looks painful.

play games!

well, as a general comment,  I'd say  that's only true for auto-exchange.

Power is irrelevant, leave it to default. Use the maxium  Core and Memory that supports your card stable.


I don't know whether mining zcoin anyore, I got  my coins when almost nobody was using 1080ti for that and now the difficulty has jumped too much.

As for static pressure, the ML120 is much better than the stock fan. Stock fan is a 5$ fan, ML120 is a 20$ fan. A have two ML120 and one feels the air beeing pushed, but I don't want them near me since they are very noisy at high rpm.  However, I don't think the ML120 needs very high rpm to cool the radiator. Probably the ML120, or some Noctuas,  is one the best solutions.

However, I must say that this fan issue is damaging in a stupid way to EVGA. The FTW3 is really a fantastic piece of engineering. I own  as well a Waterforce, Strix OC, MSI Trio, all of them very good serving different functions, and I've been impressed with  the ftw3.  You can exchange the radiator fan easily, not like other water cooled cards, where you don't have an option to do it directly.  For a small amount the warranty is extended to 5 years. A very good product spoiled by a bad parternship with a fan maker.

even worse. I received yesterday a FTW3 hybrid. Guess what?. The radiator fan is broken!. Brand new, and radiator fan is not working!. I  phoned them I they will send me a new fan.  I did my calculations, and was most profitable to purchase a Noctua 120mm urgently in amazon, that waiting for the replacement. So, now is working with the new fan in a temporal configuration.

VIRUS?. Just compiled the sources in linux, and I have the program running. I hope it's not true...

Alexis (compiled with cuda9) hashes are not recognized by mph. I get per Alexis's about 69, but mph only reports about 40.

Anyone with this issue?.

The best miner I've found for lyra2v2 is  excavator, but only works for nicehash. When I point it to mph it happens the same as with Alexis, not recognizing all the hashes the pool.

I just bought a MSI gaming TRIO.  The reason is  that I really wanted something quiet. I have it temporally in a board with a Strix OC, the poor strix (but powerful, since it hashes > 800sols/s) looks a minion compared to it.  At default settings hashes about 3% less than the Strix in lyra2z.

That's only true if ZEC performs better than BTC. Looking at current Crypto market, that looks  indeed not easy. Real interest in just in BTC. If things continue as of know, simply going only with NH will beat most of sophisticated strategies in the long run. It remembers me the index funds: zero thought, great performers, not the 1% top, but yes the 5-10% top.
