SFF sli... anyone?

This is impressive, wonder how it performs compared to a regular 1070. I like how the heatsink warns of a hot surface.

Better use it to mine and make some nice profit

Ended up getting about 500$ for both of the 970s on ebay so i'm happy. I was reading about Etherium mining but it seemed like the consensus was that a single card 1080 isn't profitable.

Try to mine with Nicehash. Currently, a 1080 makes around 0.0002 BTC per day which is currently around 2$ per day. (Source: myself) Should be profitable unless you have a super high power bill.

References power bill cost, doesn't pay power bill.

Pretty sure I saw that mining Bitcoin is like one of the worst currencies to mine with GPU's nowadays as ASIC's are much more efficient at it and other currencies are more profitable.

Sadly, Living in CT SCREWS me with electricity prices. none of them are currently valuable enough with my 1 970 :-(

Nicehash basically mines altcoins and then you get paid in Bitcoin.

I just came on to this site to get a recommendation on a new GPU to buy. Saw Nvidia advertising GTX 1080i for 549... I guess I will hold off?

I currently have a 960 ti

That price isn't bad at all.

No kidding, considering they are still selling for $1200+ here in the great white north, I just saw one for on the local classifieds for $1700

Yeah I feel like that's a typo or not something that's in stock because that's stupid cheap.
