Hello, I want to ask if someone could tell me what speed can earn this card:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131673

In your opinion is it suitable for digging ethers ?

Thanks in advance Grin


Just buy a used 280x it is much cheaper and better for this.

I haven't seen the hash rate yet, but the 380 is much slower than both the 380x and the 280x. One of the reasons is a lower mem bandwidth, that matters to eth mining.

Used 7970/280x/290/290x are much better and cheaper options. If you want water cooled you might want to look for a used 295x2, that's a beast.

Just buy ETH is probably the best answer to what's the best card for mining ETH. Can my new card help secure the Ethereum network and pay for itself in time to still be able to play new games and ROI at the same time is a better question?

That's a good point.

If you want a new gaming card you can just buy the one you want and justify it with getting a bit back by eth mining.

Go for used 280x cards if you really want to mine ETH. Cheap and still good hash for the buck.

Thanks, but I do not have many options.
I have a choice only between this card and https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/STRIX-R9380X-OC4G-GAMING/
I could not find information about this card in any calculator. Huh

I like this water cooled card better: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131676

"PowerColor DEVIL Radeon R9 390X DirectX 12 AXR9 390X 8GBD5-ADHE 8GB 512-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support ATX Video Card"

those stock fans on the elcheapo 380x aren't going to cut it, and its slow.

Not sure what to think. I feel pretty good sitting in BTC just waiting this one out.

That's cool but it's just a beta

I don't think there will have an impact on the price or maybe in the REP on gatecoin

Augur backend ready for beta! (self.Augur)

submitted 3 days ago by joeykrug

Just made the last commit to finish the last issue/task remaining for the Augur Ethereum contracts to be ready for beta!

https://github.com/AugurProject/augur-core/milestones is now @ 100%

Post beta work for the backend is ~302 hours estimated as of now. Once the UI is ready for beta then I'll update that sticky with estimates until it's ready for security audits, which are the next milestone after beta.  Smiley

Bid side on polo is looking very strong.

If this frecker starts moving it can move a lot.

Hold on to your hats boys and girls!

It did not work on last run, drop again. But maybe this time it will stick.

It may very well drop. If that massive arrangement of walls drop then....poof!!

As long as there is no confirmed direction anything can happen.

Before I saw the bid side I was pretty sure we were heading down to sub 0.005.

Anything inside the recent range (0.009-0.0115) is probably just noise.

PoS coming soon?
That should be coming sometime mid-2016 I think, so I'd expect it around June-July Smiley

So there will be no mining after this? Profitability will probably go down, correct?
I would imagine so yeah.

Ok, according to this: http://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/874/what-is-the-set-number-of-ether-in-existence-during-pow-and-then-pos

it's Q4 2016.

Anyhew, a fresh video interview with Vlad Zamfir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StMBdBfwn8c

Edit: This interview seems to suggest that you'll need much more than 1500 eth to mine PoS. He is suggesting as low as 100 validators.

Remember we told you that Canonical plans to make community builds of Ubuntu running on Sony and OnePlus handset a tentpole of its MWC 2016 hub?
Well, today the open source software company has, albeit quietly, made those plans official.
