Topic: ASUS MINING-RX470-4G - page 4. (Read 14611 times)
I don't have the Asus Expedition edition, but it looks like Asus Dual and those fans are terrible! GPU quality also isn't the best but still good. They should made the mining card with Strix cooling.
No data on availability or price available that I've found.
Also, why did they put SLOW MEMORY on a "mining" card?
This thing better be LOW COST if they expect it to sell - though given current "availability" issues, they probably will get away with it even if it's not for a while....

It's based on the RX 470 4GB which has the same memory clock and is already the best cost/hash mining card on the planet.
Not at CURRENT pricing on the RX 470 - when you can find them at all - and only ever was true for ETH/ETC/derivatives and possibly a very few "small-market-cap" coins if you limit the list to NEW cards.
(My R9 290s cost me $180 from Newegg in a timeframe that the lowest-cost RX 470 there was the SAME price, but outhash pretty much all RX 480s much less RX 470s).
Prior to the current "AMD shortage price gouge" the 470 *could* at least argue that point - though a lot of low-cost 480 and 580 cards could argue the point due to higher hashrate and not much higher price.
What's odd is that they have this card and the 106 Nvidia varient listed on their "main" website - but they direct US customers by default to www.asus.com/us/ by default (and I have not found a workaround for the main web page to date, just for "further in" ones) which does NOT list these cards at all.
The odder part is that it's 470 based instead of 570 based - I wonder if that's why some rumors are talking about "limited run", the GPU chips might be comming from previously rejected chips that were fine EXCEPT for the video-specific part of the chip?
No, it's based on the fact that a $200 RX 470/570 4 GB card has the best cost/hash performance for just about any algorithm. The R9 for the same price as a RX 470 is based on that the R9 is a two year old card, uses twice the power and is not as efficient in cost/hash to a RX 470 when the power consumption is factored in. I have all three RX 480/580 8GB and 570 4GB cards and the performance difference for just about any algorithm is not worth the extra ~$50 for the RX 480/580. Nvidia options are nowhere near the RX 470/570 4GB in a cost/hash basis, which why I said the RX 470 4GB is the best mining card for the price on just about any algorithm.
It must be rx470, no way they will label rx 570 as rx 570 is a new series, they don't want to taint its name. These mining cards are all second grade hardware, trust me, reason why they are giving 3 months warranty. They just want to get rid of defective things and no better than the desperate stupid miners hehe. If I were you I would boycott it and stick with gaming gpu's.

There is a lot of demand in Turkey
How much is the price ?

Thanks for the link.. I was waiting to see something official.. This is great news because I was waiting to buy a huge number of mining cards anyway. Thanks again man.
