Found this Mining Hardware Comparison     for different cards  

I've been on the external pools for a while now and are fed up with fees and difficulty shooting up certain times from antminers. Thank you for this guide I'm setting up on one of my rigs soon.

Scrypt got taken over by ASIC miners ballpark 4 years back, with the original GridSeed "Orb", it's bigger variants, then the BIG miners from folks like Innosilicon KNC and Alcheminer hit.
Today it's mostly Bitmain with the L3+, Innosilicon with the A4+ and A6, and an unknown quantity of BW.com L21 units.
 
 

Awesome dude thank you ill get right on it with my 950. Riches here i come!

Yeah, i use "what to mine .com"  (all 3 words put together without spaces.....i don't know if links are ok here, so i split it up).  They show good details on what can be mined effectively...i just sort the results by difficulty...then i know i can mine it easy myself....or at least can mine it ok by myself.

 

Solo is fun on EZ coins, but once the pool/network hash rate gets high, almost impossible.

this stuff is confusing as all be haha

lots of interesting info

Yeah, just learning about it myself. After my stickershock of trying to buy/find a 1080 ti, I just have to understand what's driving 2x, 3x mrsp.

Other altcoins that ARE GPU mineable, like Ethereum and Monero and Zclassic, with the emphasis right now on Ethereum since there are more GPUs mining it than all other coins combined, are what are driving the current GPU shortage (and the one for a few months this summer) that is causing the gouge pricing.
 
 Massive GAMER sales of GPUs this year is a bigger factor though - PC sales in general were up a lot, higher-end machines with high-end Intel and AMD Ryzen CPUs intended for gamers were up a lot more, and discrete GPU sales were up even more.
 
 It would appear that Nvidia had it's best "Christmas sales season" in several years, AMD did as well on both the CPU AND the GPU sides, Intel probably did so too but I've not seen Intel 4Q numbers yet - and the foundries that make all the current stuff have been running at full capacity for as long as they have existed as it is.
