Its been few months i've decided to make rigs rather than buying pandaminer. I mine ETH only and I notice most of my GPU rigs are getting more and more slow on hashing rate. Is this just happened on me Huh
So the performance on GPUs are decreasing over the time?

what gou you have? up to 3gb gou are not suable anymore, and the 4gb will be soon over too, because ETH have a diff boom that increase regardless of mining and the dag files is getting bigger and bigger, so you can't mine with old gpu anymore

I am using AMD Sapphire, Power color, ect.. 4gb RX470, RX480, RX570, RX580. Mining using Claymore. So this is normal?  Undecided or just the GPU performance?

This is normal for those cards. You will expect 30% mining performance reduction for those cards in the next few months.

Until i know etherum 2 years ago,another two years with pow and there no gpu avalible minning.Pos must be implement faster.

It only happens with Eth and other coins using the same algo, Dagger-Hashimoto.

The DAG file that's required to hash keeps increasing over time which makes it slower and slower.

Not sure if it's a good read but first google result explaining the situation: https://steemit.com/ethereum/@thexmikkel/ethereum-mining-dag-file-grows-rx-series-hashrate-decreasing

Ah i understand now..current DAG epoc is 134!  Cry

ICO? Not even once.
