Hi,

which one are the very best cards/manufacturers for the 2080 TI, from your experience?

So far I’ve looked into the following models

I’d highly appreciate your input. Merry mining yall!!!

Get the cheapest one you can find. If you can save 200$ i suggest you do so.

I have 3 different models and they range from 1.7-1.8gps, (speed reported by grin-miner). There is some talk that they only actually achieve 1.19-1.25 gps, despite reporting ~1.7gps.

There may be a fix in the works.

I think that cooling system of 2080Ti matters here in mining Grin…
So the right choice is a compromise between the cost of a video card and the efficiency of the cooling system. I chose PALIT nVidia GeForce RTX 2080Ti, PA-RTX2080Ti DUAL 11G, [ne6208t020lc-150a].

The current miner is solving 1.7 graphs per second, but due to memory constraints has fidelity only about 70%. My latest commit to the cuckoo repo improves this to around 99% but some people report strange issues with it.

I would like to try it out, but as i have posted on the other thread, i have compiled it, but am not sure how to use it, as I have not found an executable, i think i am out of my depths and will have to wait until it gets pushed into the grin-miner repo
