OK, so I'm missing 2060 Super, 2080 and 2080 Super results as I don't have any of these cards, but my hope is that the following data I've collated might prove of interest to a very select few who may be in the market for some new hardware: It's not much and probably largely correlates with other info out there, but it's real world data. If you want the raw data you can grab a copy here.
So, I'm looking for a new card, my GTX1080 having died. What would you recommend for good PPD/watt? I'm thinking of something mid-range if possible.
Very much dependent on your starting budget really. Nvidia's modern reimagining of "mid-range" seems more akin to flagship pricing of yesteryear, from £350-550. You're going to get rough parity between the 1080 and 2060, or the 1070 and 1660Ti/Super, with noticeable power savings if run 24/7. The best PPD/watt will be the 2080Ti, but the entry price is still ludicrous, even second hand. Are you interested in a multi-card setup at all? I really liked the dual RTX 2070 Super setup I was running, pulled about 430W at the plug for a pretty much guaranteed 2.75 million ppd, it occasionally even tipped over 3M. Slightly better average performance than a single Ti, a bit cheaper to get running, but substantially higher power consumption. A pair of 1660Tis will see maybe 20W lower power consumption than a 2080Ti, but will average out at only 1.2-1.4M ppd. I'm going to be selling a few of my GPUs in the near future, once you've decided which direction you're going in drop me a message and I may be able to help out.
Thanks for that. I opted for a GTX 1660 Ti as it fitted the budget. I haven't got the result I expected (see other thread).
Just seeing 4 million PPD on a single 2080 Ti running a big atom beta project using Core22. That's going to change the game. Even the 2070 supers are each getting 2.3M on these WUs.
