7950 and still have it somewhere
never got into mining but with these new cards coming out I might consider picking up one to try it out. But not for bitcoin. Nooooo way!
Strictly for alt mining. You will roi in a few months and not like 10 years with btc mining!

it was radeon r7 series that I last bought. It never work when i tried to figure how to mine altcoins actually. Not sure If i will ever try again, i don't have something to make it cool anyway. if i can set up water cooler for it, it would be great but then the next problem would be the electricity costs.

I did use the graphic card for gaming though. its one of the best i've bought.

Which R7 is it? if it's R7 370 , it's one of the most efficient cards to mine with. Very low Electricity consumption, however the hashrate is bit lower

 When you factor in overall SYSTEM energy usage, though, the R7 cards fall quite a bit short of most R9 series cards or even some of the HD 79xx.

What Type Of GPU Did You Buy And When Was It?

 3x R9 280x as part of a system purchace from Newegg of what appears to have been their last "Litecoin miner", a few months back.

 They got swapped for 3x R9 290 I already had on hand with TheStilt bios and that system has been rock-solid since then.

For me, it was about 3 months and a half. I bought 3x R9 380 that I'm very satisfied of. I'm now planning to buy a 1060 when price will be back to the normal.

are you mining with those?

Yes I am. I'm very satisfied of these. They're powerful but yet silent. Their temperature is very good. However I have no idea of the consumption, but that should be below 200W per card.

yea it is , myself im using 380 also
