Welcome to the Nvidia Geforce RTX 2070 vs 1070 Ti full spec and benchmark review.
Today we will be taking a look at these two Nvidia graphics cards to see which one comes out on top, as the best option to buy in 2018/2019.
Looking at the difference between the RTX 2070 and the GTX 1070 Ti, we see that these two cards are of a similar price bracket vs performance (depending on if the GTX 1070 Ti is on special).
NVIDIA are trying to get rid of their excess GTX 1070 Ti stock, thanks to them making a massive oversight in production during the Crypto Farming craze in 2017, creating far more stock than what is now required.
When the AMD Radeon 580 was sold out, Cryptominers flocked towards the GTX 1070 Ti as the second best option, thanks to its price vs performance at mining Ethereum. This resulted in Nvidia making a boat load of 1070 Ti cards to cash in on the craze.
While the GTX 1080 Ti is in short supply, the GTX 1070 ti is certainly not.
The 3rd party manufacturers (ASUS, EVGA, MSI, GIGABYTE etc) are thus trying to get rid of the excess stock without making too much of a loss. Because of this, there is an ample amount of GTX 1070 Ti graphic cards on the market, at much more affordable prices than before.
If you can grab a 1070 Ti for under $400, I’d do that, otherwise the RTX 2070 in a better buy, in favor of its better performance at a similar cost cost.

While the RTX 2070 isn’t the sleeping giant that the The RTX 2080 Ti and RTX 2080 are, to a certain extent, it is also eagerly waiting to reveal its true potential, once software developers have had some time to fully implemented its Raytracing and Tensor core capabilities, into their gaming titles or software programs.
Sporting 3 specialized cores at under its belt (instead of the single SM core on the GTX 1070 Ti), is what’s going to set the RTX 2070 apart, in terms of pure performance power. Although this will take time.
These is a big difference between RTX and Raytracing so make sure to read my article on that, to find out more. This will give you a far better understanding on what new features and technologies the new RTX platform brings to the table and how the work together, as well as why GTX has hit a roadblock in its performance output.
This knowledge will help you to properly understand what to look for when comparing these two cards, when looking at the specs in this article.
Without further adieu, let’s take a look at how these two graphic cards perform.
[bs-heading title=”TL;DR Summary” show_title=”1″ icon=”” title_link=”” heading_color=”#db3b1e” heading_style=”default” bs-show-desktop=”1″ bs-show-tablet=”1″ bs-show-phone=”1″ bs-text-color-scheme=”” css=”” custom-css-class=”” custom-id=”” heading_tag=”h4″]
The RTX 2070 uses the Turing 12nm architecture, which results is a larger chipset with more transistors for binary calculations, on its TU106-400 processor, while requiring less power.
Both graphics card are similar in clock speeds and overclocking capabilities, which leads many to believe they are of the same processing power, which is simply not true. When looking at the 2070 compared to 1070 Ti, so few people realize that RTX is a new platform and thus, a new way of comparing performance is required.
Of this, clock speeds is not the end-all feature to judge performance comparisons by, as what it has been been in the past.
A single core (like on the GTX 1070 Ti or your CPU) can only push clock speeds so far, before reaching a limit, where heat and power realistically become too much, and diminishing returns start to set in. This is what happened to Intel and the reason we now have multi-core CPUs and threads today.
The GTX 1070 Ti is the better rasterization graphics card, as this is what it was designed for. It thus takes the lead, ahead of the RTX 2070 in ROP, TMU as well as Pixel and Textures rates because of this. This is why it is able to keep up with the RTX 2070, in the current game benchmarks below.
If you look closely under the Rasterization Section of this 2070 vs 1070 ti review, you will see that the newly upgraded Streaming Multiprocessor (SM) core of the RTX is nearly double the performance of the GTX 1070 Ti.
This is another crucial component that isn’t being fully optimized in current games and software, just yet. Because of this, it again isn’t being taken into consideration by many people, when looking at the RTX 2070 compared to GTX 1070 Ti.
The GTX 1070 Ti also takes the lead in terms of CUDA core count, although lacks the Tensor (AI & Deep Learning) and RT (Ray Tracing) Cores that will also eventually help put the RTX 2070 ahead, again once they are properly implemented into software, as mentioned previously.
Both the GTX 1070 Ti and RTX 2070 have the same 8GB of VRAM (memory), but the RTX 2070’s memory speeds runs at around 75% faster, than the GTX 1070 Ti.
Thanks to the newer Displayport 1.4a upgrade (adding in DSC), the RTX 2070 can also run at higher refresh rates in both 4K and 8K resolutions, while not suffering from any deterioration in frame rates with HDR enabled, as was the case with the 1070 Ti.
A deeper look at the RTX 2070 vs 1070 ti specs, shows that both cards support three DisplayPorts and one HDMI port, although the RTX offers support the new USB-C 3.1 Gen2 standard, allowing for an array of new possibilities in connections, such as VirtualLink for VR headsets.
[bs-heading title=”Who is the RTX 2070 or GTX 1070 Ti for?” show_title=”1″ icon=”” title_link=”” heading_color=”#db3b1e” heading_style=”default” bs-show-desktop=”1″ bs-show-tablet=”1″ bs-show-phone=”1″ bs-text-color-scheme=”” css=”” custom-css-class=”” custom-id=”” heading_tag=”h4″]
Well, anyone with an older computer or graphics card, lower than a 980Ti, looking to breathe some life into their gaming experiences. I have an Intel i3700K rig with 32GB RAM and a GTX 660 Ti graphics cards, that I want to make use of as a spare computer in another off-site office.
The i3770K is still a beast of a CPU after all these years, and is showing very little sign of slowing down.
The 660Ti is however falling behind when playing anything above 1080p gaming or doing 4K video edits, due to its limited 2GB RAM. So for this rig, a 1070 Ti or 2070 card, with 8GB of RAM is perfect, as it wont be bottle necked by the CPU and will really give the PC a big boost in both editing and gaming performance, at a fraction of the cost of a whole new rig.
I snagged a ASUS ROG-STRIX GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Advanced ($459.99) during Black Friday for $379 and am eager to do some benchmarks once I get some time.
Bottom line, if you have a PC you want to give a few more years of life to, or someone building a new, mid range $1000 system, then either of these cards are a perfect fit for both price and performance.
Which to choose? Well, keep on reading.

PLEASE NOTE:
Display Stream Compression (DSC) is a VESA Display Standard that delivers visually lossless compression (12-bit HDR), enabling support for higher resolutions and refresh rates without the need for chroma sub-sampling.
This is what allows the RTX 2070 to output the higher 4K (240Hz refresh rate) and 8K (60Hz refresh rate), while the GTX 1070 Ti can only do 4K (120Hz refresh rate) and 8K (30Hz refresh rate).
DSC also allows for better 10-bit HDR game play. With DSC on the RTX 2070, it can now run game as 4K 10-bit HDR (144Hz refresh rate) and 8K 10-bit HDR (60Hz refresh rate) with a single cable, while the GTX 1070 Ti can only do 4K 10-bit HDR (98Hz refresh rate) and 8K 10-bit HDR (30Hz refresh rate) through a single cable.
In summary you will now, no longer see any performance hits to your frame rates when playing games in HDR on the RTX 2070.

Size and weight are difficult to compare as there are many 3rd party manufacturers that, such as ASUS, Gigabyte, EVGA, MSI, Zotac and PNY that put their own custom cooling solution on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board).
To find out more on the size of each individual 3rd party board, please visit the following Amazon lists:
- RTX 2070
- GTX 1070 Ti
Each of these will take up more slots or be longer or heavier than the next, thus for the purpose of this comparison article, the sizes above are based upon the official Nvidia Founders Edition RTX 2070 and GTX 1070 Ti, which are very similar in size and weight.

Benchmarks — RTX 2070 vs GTX 1070 Ti
While I have included RTX 2070 vs GTX 1070 Ti gaming benchmarks, please remember that all current benchmarks are simply not a true reflection of performance of the RTX platform.
As mentioned above, the RTX has yet to spread its wings in terms of its available cores and technologies, which we will just need to show some patience on before running at Nvidia with pitchforks.
This will however take more than a few months to happen as it’s not a simple “click of a button” process to integrate so many new technologies into a game or software engine.
Its needs time and that is simply the reality.
All the games benchmarked below, are based on the now older rasterization rendering technology that has had more than a decade to mature.
This is what the GTX 1070 Ti was built for and the games optimized around it, which is why it performs so well. RTX is only a few months old in comparison.
Rasterization has however hit the end of the road and cannot be further optimized.
The only way to get better performance out of the Pascal Architecture is through sheer brute clock speed enhancements.
This however comes at a massive power and temperature cost, which simply makes it an unrealistic option for consumer graphics cards, as that requires exotic cooling like liquid nitrogen. Air cooling simply isn’t sufficient above the current clock speeds.
The only solution was to make more cores, which is what Nvidia has done with the Turing Architecture, by adding two new cores to the already SM core.
Both these cores are insanely powerful. The RT Core (Ray Tracing Core) is purely dedicated to handling lighting & texture calculations, while the tensor core (AI and Deep Learning) is there to assist the RT and SM Cores, with its DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) capabilities.
This take a massive load off the enhanced SM core v2.0 to handle everything else. Comparing this architecture to The GTX 1070 Ti, which only has a SM processor v 1.0 to handle all the above, makes the difference in pure potential, not very difficult to see.
The only thing getting in the RTX 2070’s way, is having to wait on game develops to update their game titles to make use of all this power.
[bs-heading title=”Benchmarks: RTX 2070 vs GTX 1070 Ti – 2.5K (1440p)” show_title=”1″ icon=”” title_link=”” heading_color=”#db3b1e” heading_style=”default” bs-show-desktop=”1″ bs-show-tablet=”1″ bs-show-phone=”1″ bs-text-color-scheme=”” css=”” custom-css-class=”” custom-id=”” heading_tag=”h4″]
In the 1440p (2.5K) resolution tests, the RTX 2070 was able to pull ahead by about 20% increase in overall frame rates, using Microsoft Direct X 11 and 12.
With that said, we see an indication of how well the RTX 2070 can perform given more optimized software code, especially that of VULKAN SDK, instead of DX, when looking at the a game such as DOOM, giving the RTX 2070, a whopping 36% increase in fps at 1440p, compared to the GTX 1070 Ti.
This is only a taste of whats to come, once more games are optimized around these superior rendering API’s such as VULKAN, over the dated DX and OpenGL.
Miscorsoft also have their DXR (DirectX Raytracing), which could possibly make their titles better compete with VULKAN.
VULKAN is a much more optimized and thus a lower overhead API, that makes use of parallel tasking. Much like RTX, VULKAN is still yet to be fully integrated into the majority of games and thus, has a shining future ahead of itself, as we can clearly see in both Doom and Wolfenstein II.
The 36% increase we see here isn’t even taking the RTX optimization into account though, as Wolfenstein II is still built using rasterization with no RT or Tensor Core DLSS implementations.

The 4K benchmark tests are, a clear indication of where the RTX 2070 starts to pull ahead of the GTX 1070 Ti, thanks to its better performing components on a more demanding resolution.
We see a 10% to 29% increase in fps on the DX titles, and a 24% increase in DOOM using VULKAN and again a 25% increase in Wolfenstein II also using VULKAN.
While not as big as the jump between the RTX 2080 Ti vs 2080, we do still see sizable jump in performance by the RTX 2070 has over the GTX 1070 Ti, thanks to the superior VULKAN API, making proper use of its performance specs.
This will only to get better as they are optimized for RTX as well.
Which is best? RTX 2070 or GTX 1070 Ti
Is the RTX 2070 worth buying over the GTX 1070 Ti?
In terms of game benchmark performance, we see a 10% to 36% (averaging at about 20%) overall increase from the RTX 2070 over the GTX 1070 Ti, which is quite a significant number.
The price difference between the RTX 2070 at $550 on average, is also a 20% increase in price compared to the average $450 for the GTX 1070 Ti.
So you get exactly 20% increased performance for 20% ($100) increase in cost. A fair trade in my opinion.
You need to still take into consideration that the RTX 2070 has the added benefit of making full use of the other two cores (RT Core & Tensor Core) sitting dormant and underutilized on the RTX cards in the future, which will make its value more per dollar.
Although, as mentioned in the beginning of this article, the retailers are trying to get rid of their 1070 range cards, so the prices for the GTX 1070 Ti and GTX 1070, are the best they have ever been in a while. Although, with them being sold more and more over the past few months, they are becoming less available and thus causing some prices to rise, as we saw with the GTX 1080 Ti.
As mentioned in the beginning of the review, either of these cards are a perfect fit for anyone wanting to build a new sub $1000 computer with very respectable 1440p and 4K frame rates for gaming, or a video editor wanting smoother 4K editing experience due to their solid 8GB of RAM.
These cards are also great for anyone (such as myself) who wants to give one of their old PC rigs a few more years of gaming or production life.
As long as you have a respectable CPU (such as my i3700K) and 32GB of RAM, your PC will still be more than fine for 90% of your needs, may that be gaming or editing, provided that you upgrade you graphics processor to at least a RTX 2070 or GTX 1070 Ti.

Nvidia RTX 2070 vs. GTX 1070: Which Max-Q GPU is Right for You?
Nvidia’s RTX (Turing) cards have arrived, promising more power than its Pascal chips. Dubbed Turing by Nvidia, the company says these are its fastest GPUs ever, thanks in part to structural efficiencies and advanced shaders. Powerful performance and smoother, faster gameplay are some of the most obvious benefits. But thanks to some technological advancements, games have taken a serious step forward on the path to photorealism.
However, with a relatively small catalog of games that support Nvidia’s new tech and with a rather high price tag for the luxury, some gamers might want to stick with good ol’ Pascal for the time being. Here’s what you need to know about Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q and RTX 2070 Max-Q graphics cards.
Specs Compared
Bridging the gap between full 60 and 70 cards, the 1070 and the 2070 Max-Q CPUs are the third most-powerful chips in their respective lines. Just like its predecessor, the 2070 Max-Q GPU comes with 6GB video memory. The biggest differences between the two chips lie in their builds. The 1070 Max-Q has 2,048 CUDA Cores with a core and boost clock speed between 1101 and 1215MHz. The 2070 Max-Q has 2,304 CUDA Cores but, due to TDP (thermal design power) restraints, has much lower base and boost speeds (885 — 1,185MHz).
Features
Both cards support 4K gaming and HDR (high dynamic range) color, which translates into some beautiful in-game vistas, as well as support for virtual reality. Each also has integrated Nvidia G-Sync support and plays nicely with GeForce Experience utilities like Battery Boost, Whisper Mode and Ansel. Both cards support Nvidia’s Optimus technology, which allows laptops to seamlessly switch between integrated and discrete graphics, depending on the task.
But where the 2070 Max-Q stands alone is in Nvidia’s new Ray Tracing and DLSS (Deep Learning Super-Sampling) technology. Ray Tracing mimics the way that light in the real world reacts to hitting different objects in the environment. For example, light hitting a reflective surface will not react the same way as light hitting a plush surface.
Ray Tracing essentially tracks in-game light from the game’s virtual camera back to the original in-game lighting source. This new technology means that games will look more photorealistic, including actual reflections in mirrors, bodies of water and other reflective materials: something that has been lacking in a lot of modern games. Currently, there are 11 games on tap that will work with Nvidia’s Ray Tracing tech, including Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Metro: Exodus, Control and Battlefield V, to name a few.
In order to get all that photorealism going, you’re going to need power –– lots and lots of graphical power. But you’re not going to get all that power from something as slim as a Razer Blade 15.
That’s where Nvidia’s proprietary artificial intelligence DLSS comes into play. The company is calling it the first AI for games. The technology is trained to play games at super-high resolutions, capturing a large number of scenes.

And when it’s time for the consumers to play the finished product, DLSS takes what it learned from those hours of training sessions, and renders those super-high-res scenes at a much lower rate. The AI is able to construct high-quality graphics from elements of many different scenes. This shortcut translates into improvements on the graphics and performance fronts.
DLSS technology will debut in 20 titles, including Anthem, PUBG, Darksiders 3, Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Hitman 2.
Performance
While I could talk about the differences between GTX and RTX till I’m blue in the face, the proof is in the numbers. For this test, I pitted a pair of Razer Blade 15s against each other.
Both systems feature a 2.2-GHz Intel Core i7-8750H processor, 16GB RAM and a 512GB NVMe M.2 PCIe SSD. The only difference are the GPUs: One was outfitted with a 1070 Max-Q, and the other, a 2070 Max-Q GPU.
During the Rise of the Tomb Raider benchmark, the 2070 Blade 15 stumbled out of the box, hitting only 60 frames per second. That’s good, but not as good as its predecessor, which achieved 77 fps.
Switching over to the Hitman test, the 2070 notched 96 fps, easily defeating the 1070’s 82 fps. And when we ran the Grand Theft Auto test, the 2070 system achieved 76 fps, outpacing the 1070’s 66 fps. On the taxing Metro: Last Light benchmark, the 2070 and 1070 produced 46 and 44 fps, respectively.

As far as VR is concerned both notebooks are ripping and raring to go. When we ran the SteamVR Performance test, the 1070 scored a 10, which is at the top end of the benchmark scale, while the 2070 maxed out the test at 11.
Which GPU Offers the Best Value
Typically, the older configuration would be cheaper, making it the better value. But since Razer is quickly phasing the 1070 version of the Blade 15 out, scarcity has kept the price rather high. On Amazon, it’s priced at $2,599 –– $2,479 if you can live with half the storage space. I also found a certified refurbished system listed at $1,849 , if you’re into that sort of thing.
As far as the 2070 iteration, our review unit costs $2,649 and has the added bonus of Razer’s limited edition Mercury White aluminum chassis. The regular black version costs $2,599, which drops to $2,399 with a 256GB SSD. If you’re looking for a 4K unit, the price jumps to $2,899.
Bottom Line
Right now, you can’t go wrong with either an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q GPU or a RTX 2070 Max-Q graphics card. Both components offer high frame rates at beefier settings, and they support VR, G-Sync and a host of other Nvidia-branded technologies.
However, the company’s Turing chips offer Nvidia’s Ray Tracing and DLSS technologies, which make the games we play even prettier and more photorealistic. But with few games that currently support the technology, it’s a potentially expensive investment for what may come.
Gamers looking for higher performance for less money will want to consider systems with 10-series Pascal GPUs. Although not as powerful as Turing, Pascal still packs a serious punch. But future-forward gamers will want to invest in a laptop with a Turing discrete graphics card, as the library supporting Ray Tracing and DLSS is sure to grow in the coming months.

Nvidia RTX 2070 vs GTX 1070: Which is right for you?
Nvidia has just revealed its incredibly powerful new GeForce RTX graphics cards, designed with Turing smarts and promising ‘up to 6x the performance of previous graphics cards’. So how does the new GeForce RTX 2070 stack up against the older Pascal-based GTX 1070 GPU, and which might be best for you?
If you’re all about top-end PC gaming, then Nvidia may have already made your week. Its new RTX range of GPUs aren’t just seriously powered compared with the current GTX 1000-series cards. The RTX 2080, 2080i and 2070 can produce some dazzling visuals, to make our stress-busting online sessions even more immersive and eye-popping.
The RTX 2070 may be the entry level RTX 2000-series option and sit beneath its 2080 brethren, but it’s still an absolute unit, especially when placed side-by-side with the current crop of GeForce cards. Here’s how it compares with the still-great-value GTX 1070, so you know whether an upgrade is essential when the RTX GPUs hit UK stores.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 vs GTX 1070 – Overview
The 1070 launched nearly two years ago and was Nvidia’s flagship mid-range card for 1440p gaming. The 2070 targets the same segment but is reportedly 4K capable as well.
Sadly, Nvidia hasn’t given us a set release date for the RTX 2070 just yet. Hopefully, the wait won’t be too long. An estimated and slightly vague target of ‘October 2018’ means this lower-specced card will only be a month or so behind the RTX 2080 and 2080i, which are set to release on September 20th.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 vs GTX 1070 – Specs
While the GTX 1070 isn’t the top-end current-gen graphics card that Nvidia offers, it still packs quite a punch for gaming and media tasks. Based on the Pascal architecture, this GPU offers a smooth experience at 1440p resolution for all recent titles – although the GTX 1070 Ti boasts a boost in frame rate, if your budget can stretch a little further.
However, the GTX 1070 falters when it comes to full 4K gaming. If you’re hoping to play at Ultra HD resolution, the RTX 2070 should provide an impressively smooth experience, even at that super-fine detail level. The maximum supported resolution is actually 8K (7680 x 4320), so you’ll be able to play on a monitor the size of your wall, with impressively crisp visuals.
That 16nm Pascal setup allows Nvidia to pack 1920 CUDA cores onto the GTX 1070. These cores handle most of the grunt work when rendering graphics – so more is definitely a good thing.
In the RTX 2070, you’ll find 2304 CUDA cores crammed into the improved 12nm design, for a serious boost in speed. You also get 9 billion transistors, compared with 7.2 billion on the older card.
As for on-board memory, the 1070 and 2070 both pack 8GB. However, while the new RTX 2070 uses GDDR6 memory, the older GeForce card uses GDDR5. This is still fine for running the latest games, of course; that 256-bit bus offers 256GB/sec of memory bandwidth, so it’s no slouch.
However, the GDDR6 memory is faster and boasts 448GB/sec of memory bandwidth.
The big new feature that Nvidia is making noise about for its RTX 2000-series is ray tracing, something that’s only possible on the new Turing architecture.
Ray tracing allows your GPU to produce far more realistic lighting effects, rendering environments with startling contrast. The difference is seriously impressive, with the upgrade to real-time shading making a serious impact on what you see.
The RTX GPU draws a maximum 175W of power, packing dual-axial 13-blade fans and a funky new vapor chamber to keep things cool – and, hopefully, hush-quiet even during intensive gaming sessions. By comparison, the GTX 1070 hits a maximum power consumption of 150W – although, again, the effective cooling system keeps throttling at bay.
If VR is your thing, then either of these cards will handle the latest such PC games using headsets such as the Oculus Rift.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 vs GTX 1070 – Price and early verdict
The GeForce RTX 2070 has been announced with a release price of $599 US; we’re still waiting on a UK price.
You can expect the great-value GTX 1070 to drop in price as soon as the RTX hits, so if you’re tempted by this GPU, we’d recommend holding off a bit longer.

Mining brings good money again. Even if you have one Nvidia or AMD
video card. It’s time for gamers to stop playing games and return to mining – it’s profitable to dig cryptocurrencies again. Even though Bitcoin has dropped below $10,000 today, it is still at least twice the exchange rate as of January 1st. The rest of the coins also show growth, which means you can earn money on them. This requires one video card and some free time. To understand how it all works, you can start with the basics. For example, this article explains in a simple and accessible language what mining is, where to start and what beginner miners should know.
For example, let’s also remember Ethereum (ETH) — the second cryptocurrency in the world ranking. In early January, they offered $133 for it, and today the rate is $277. At the same time, on June 26, ETH set a new local record at $352.
The growth of the rate directly affects the profitability of mining, because the owners of video cards receive a reward in cryptocurrency. In addition, this also opens up the opportunity for the so-called hodl — when coin holders do not sell them immediately, but wait for more profitable rates. For example, they could mine or buy the same Ethereum in January and sell it today. The benefit is obvious.
But the main question is: how much do modern video cards earn, taking into account the current market situation? We answer.
To do this, we enter the hashrates of video cards — that is, their computing power — in the 2CryptoCalc mining profitability calculator. Then we press the calculate button and get the result.
If the profitability suits, we switch to the 2Miners pool and get acquainted with mining in practice. In which case, an example of setting is in this article.
Note that mining does not end on the well-known Ethereum. In recent years, developers have launched many new coins on different algorithms that bring good money. These are Aeternity, Grin, Ravencoin and other cryptocurrencies.
. Despite this, at current rates, the 6 GB version can bring in about a dollar a day. In this case, it is better to dig Aeternity, since Bitcoiin B2G is not the most reliable project. Cryptocurrency has relatively small trading volumes and an excessive love for sharp jumps in rates. You can also lose your savings.
GTX 1063 owners should dig Bitcoin Gold or Ravencoin.
By the way, at the beginning of June, Aeternity appeared on the 2Miners pool.
Due to the high profitability, the coin has collected more than 280 miners online.
Profitability Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070
The GTX 1070 has a similar top but higher profitability. From the top of cryptocurrencies, Zcoin also deserves attention — this is an old project with active developers. And it is also traded on many exchanges, so there will be no problems with the sale.
How much the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070ti brings
The TI version of the GTX 1070 almost repeats the results of the previous model. The profit differs by a few cents.

How much does Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 ti 9 bring in0019
The GTX 1080 ti has 11 GB of memory, which means it can mine Grin on the advanced CuckAToo-31 algorithm. Simpler models are denied access to this algorithm, so the advantage should definitely be taken advantage of.
Read more about Grin algorithms here. You can also dig a coin on 2Miners.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Profitability
The situation with the RTX 2060 is slightly different, with Aeternity taking the lead by a tiny margin. By the way, Ravencoin is also in demand and is available on many exchanges. Now more than 100 miners work on the RVN pool.
How much does the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070
Profit RTX 2070 confidently exceeds one and a half dollars. At the same time, the alignment of forces is the same — Aeternity, Grin, Zcoin, Ravencoin and others.
How much does an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 bring in
Here, the yield is above two dollars. The Profitability Calculator still recommends that you use your capacity to mine Aeternity AE. It’s hard to argue with this.
Profitability Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080ti
Nvidia’s flagship will please three dollars a day. Yes, the RTX 2080ti also has 11 GB of memory, so we use them for Grin’s secret algorithm.
In which case we choose Aeternity and also feel good.
How much AMD Radeon RX570 brings in
AMD video cards, also called “red”, get along better with Ethereum and Ethereum Classic. Alas, the difference in the profits of these cryptocurrencies with Bitcoiin B2G is almost two times, but it’s hardly worth the risk. Ether is an eternal project, behind which, among other things, stands the authority of its creator Vitalik Buterin. He will obviously be fine.
Profitability of AMD Radeon RX580
Ethereum and Ethereum Classic are also leaders here. By the way, Ethereum is the most popular cryptocurrency on the 2Miners pool. Almost 1,700 miners are digging it at the same time. This is the belief in the project.
How much AMD RX Vega 56 brings in
Finally, the calculator recommends that RX Vega 56 owners take a closer look at Grin. Anonymous cryptocurrency will give about a dollar per day. And if the rate goes up, the profit will certainly increase.
Conclusions
Cryptocurrency mining really comes to life as the market grows — now you can earn even on one card. Owners of «green» video cards should definitely focus on Aeternity — this is an obvious leader in terms of profitability in these conditions. At the same time, AMD users are clearly better off digging into Ethereum or Ethereum Classic.
In the meantime, we are waiting for the further continuation of the trend and the emergence of new methods for the real use of cryptocurrencies in life. Then it will be even better.
