GTX 1080 OC: Gigabyte GTX 1080 G1 Gaming.GTX 1080 Founder’s Edition: EVGA GTX 1080 FE.GTX 1070 Founder’s Edition: EVGA GTX 1070 FE.GTX 1060 6GB: ASUS GTX 1060 6GB Dual-fan OC edition (stock clocks).You will note that for the top three contenders we have both stock clocked and factory overclocked cards: We are assuming these GPUs are not dedicated miners and instead Zcash mining is something to utilize hardware while it is idle/ offset costs. We did not test the GTX 1050 (2GB) and GTX 1060 (3GB) variants because they have significantly lower value for gaming and machine learning. For the NVIDIA GTX 1070, GTX 1080 and GTX 1080 Ti we have both Founder’s Edition and overclocked variants.
Best cuda zcash miner 2018 series#
We are comparing all of the GTX series GPUs in terms of mining performance as well as power consumption.
These markets fluctuate greatly.Ĭomparing NVIDIA Desktop Pascal GPUs for Zcash Miningįor this test, we are using the EWBF 0.3.3b miner. As this is about to publish it is currently at $248 USD to 1 ZEC. By the early morning Pacific time of that had hit $124. When we built a new image with Pascal GPUs we found that NVIDIA GPUs can keep up profitability in-line with using AMD GPUs to mine Zcash or Monero.Įditor’s Note: We ran this analysis on when Zcash’s coin ZEC was $104 USD to 1 ZEC. Although we have CUDA enabled Monero mining containers, they performed well, but not significantly better than CPU mining. Several months ago, we tried Zcash mining in Docker and even published Docker containers for CPU mining. After our extremely popular Monero mining series, which works well on AMD GPUs and Intel/ AMD CPUs, we started looking for a cryptocurrency mining application for NVIDIA GPUs. For many of our readers, NVIDIA GPUs have a good mix of gaming and deep learning training capabilities. It is no secret that AMD holds a solid leadership position in the world of cryptocurrency mining.
