^yeah and if there are good deals in the used marketplace they are gone pretty quickly too.
there's a 1660 Ti listed on FB marketplace for 389$, not bad but not the best either. going forward I will be more at ease sticking with 8GB GPUs.
I am now using NHQM on my main computer, getting the same speed maybe even better than NHM.
61 MH/s @ 130W
the auto OC didn't work really well for me, it got only to 59 MH/s so I manually fine tuned the settings.
I am going to stick with NHM on my mining rig though as I think NHQM doesnt like pascal GPUS much.
17+23 on NHM vs 16+19 on NHQM
this is a good reading material
