Hashrate using different mining algorithms

A card worth $ 1,200 was launched with a power of 250 W. It is worth noting that Founders Edition allows you to exceed the maximum threshold by 20% by running the card in 300 Volt mode. But this will require good cooling, so that your expensive purchase does not burn.

All tests were performed without overclocking and with the standard settings of the card, the rotational speed of the cooler was set to maximum. The ccMiner 2.0 RC2 program was used, with all the same default settings. All algorithms supported by the miner were checked.

As a result, Blakecoin and Blake2s performed best of all, where the hashrate was 7521 and 6178 MH / s, respectively. At the same time TDP was 100%. Hashing powers and power consumption can vary greatly from algorithm to algorithm. But it is worth mentioning that algorithms capable of overcoming the TDP stock constraint can produce much better indicators.

If you look in the long term, it is better to slightly reduce the load and work not at the limit of the TDP video card. After all, such a decision will save energy. Heshreyt not much fall, and the video card will serve many times longer. You can compensate for a slight hash rate by connecting a cheaper GPU with overclocking, in SLI, to the GTX 1080 Ti.

The video card is the most expensive solution from the entire manufacturer’s line, but it gives the best performance. If we compare it with the closest analogue, then it is possible to mine by 1080 Ti almost two times faster than by 1070.

Here the question arises, why overpay and take the Ti-version, if the standard 1080 looks no worse? Ti gives approximately 700 Sol, while the standard 1080 produces 510–520. At the same time, the difference in the cost of cards is on average $ 100–200, and in the output power almost one and a half times.
