Most Profitable Coins To Mine With Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB

The Nvidia RTX 3080 12GB is an upgraded version of Nvidia's GeForce 30 series graphics card, bringing enhanced memory and performance capabilities. Running on the powerful Ampere architecture, it boasts 8960 CUDA cores and a boost clock of 1.71 GHz, together with an increased 12 GB of GDDR6X memory. While it surpasses the 8 GB memory of the RTX 3070, it still falls short of the massive 24 GB found in the RTX 3090, which is the flagship graphics card of the series.

Priced competitively at $820 upon its launch, the RTX 3080 12GB maintains the capability to mine Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Ravencoin, Zcoin, and Cortex. With the added memory, it also more efficiently mines Grin on the more demanding Cuckatoo32 algorithm.

For owners of the LHR (Lite Hash Rate) model of this graphics card, the full potential of your card can be unlocked using the latest mining software versions. The 512.15 driver should be used on Windows and the 510.60 on Linux.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB Overclocking for Mining

To maximize hash rate you are probably going to need to configure additional settings. Choose an optimal GPU overclocking value to maximize hash rate and keep energy consumption at an acceptable level. Algorithms may require core overclocking, memory overclocking, or both. The main overclocking principle is stable work and maximum hash rate at an acceptable energy consumption level. It’s important to remember that each GPU is unique. If for one it is possible to overclock the core to 2000 MHz, for a similar one you may be able to overclock only to 1900 MHz. Make sure to adjust overclocking settings for each card individually.
