1. NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB
The NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB from Nvidia delivers 23.99 Mh/s of Ethash hashrate while consuming 90.0W. At $0.1/kWh, it's currently not profitable. You'd need cheaper power to make it work.
2. AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB
The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB from AMD delivers 54.76 Mh/s of Ethash hashrate while consuming 140.0W. At $0.1/kWh, it's currently not profitable. You'd need cheaper power to make it work.
3. Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Super
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Super from Nvidia delivers 95 Mh/s of Ethash hashrate while consuming 320.0W. At $0.1/kWh, it's currently not profitable. You'd need cheaper power to make it work.
How to Choose a Ethereum Classic Miner
Efficiency matters most. The best miner isn't always the one with the highest hashrate — it's the one with the lowest joules per hash. A more efficient machine earns more per dollar of electricity.
Check your electricity rate. At $0.05/kWh, almost any modern ASIC is profitable. At $0.10/kWh, only the most efficient models work. Above $0.15/kWh, you need top-tier hardware or free power.
Factor in difficulty growth. Ethereum Classic mining difficulty typically increases as new hardware enters the network. A rig that's profitable today may earn less in 6 months. Use our ROI calculator to model different scenarios.
