I like your argument that the 1070 will ROI a bit earlier due to the fact that you can mine with it very soon.

still you didn't provide the proof of those 30MH with 480x, i see no confirmation on that hashrate, cryptoblog still say that it need to be tested


 Nobody has STATED that the RX 480 will mine 30 MH - we're just speculating and estimating based on the published specs.

 IMO more likely it will be a 22-25MH card - but at the PRICE and at the probable power consumption that's a very nice place to be.

 After all, my 290s are legitimate 30MH cards - but they also eat upwards of 200 watts even WITH modified The Stilt bios on them (probably closer to 250) - so while they were inexpensive (sub-$200 from the Newegg "refurbs" sale a bit back) and have a fairly good chance to achieve ROI just from ETH mining, they're not exactly cool running nor highly efficient.

So 1070 is availible on june 10th  its 449$ founders edition (i think it a good design for mining - memory is thermo paded and cooled properly, fan blower is heavy duty and will last longer than som of the custom design boards) and it is garanteed to do 27mhs at ~100w
480 will do 27mhs tops (we dont know their memory controller settings, memory config in general etc) and its big unknown what the consumption is but 8gb version is around ~250$
So if preorder 1070 you will roi at least 50$ in time 480 will be availible
Now if there will be price cuts for nano - it depends what it will be - but its 4gb and resale value is lower vs 1070
Im personally getting at least 1 rig with 6x1070s

The new 480's could perhaps consume only 100 watts with a under volt and reach a close to similar hash rate most likely around the 23 mh mark to speculate.  If things turn out to be good I will seriously consider switching over my gpus to the 480 and further build dedicated rigs on that card as it seems like it will be pleasure to do so.

Also keep in mind that a card like this shouldn't in theory cause a change in hash rates as its not providing a jump in hash rate and farms only have so much space to place the cards.  So it seems like the biggest win is for the hobbyist being we pay the highest rates on electricity vs. farms. Those farms wont really want to buy this card being it could reduce their net hash if the farm is maxed out on space and their electricity is cheap enough to where they would lose more by switching over.

I will wait for the 512 bit memory bus cards. if they are the successor of the 390 and consumes less power.

sure "mining end with ethereum"

see you in 1 year with another great profitable coin, and for your informatuion spreadcoin has the same profit right now

so no i'm not kidding, but amd is not optimized to mine it, only nvidia for now

I'd rather ROI 500% in 1 year with AMD than "250% with NVIDIA, just in case AMD is not good to mine in 1 year." No point in speculating what will be profitable after Eth goes PoS. Could be Pro Nvidia, could be Pro AMD. But so far in the years i've mined, AMD's bang for buck always won overall. I'd be glad to have any reason whatsoever to ever build a Nvidia rig.

still you didn't provide the proof of those 30MH with 480x, i see no confirmation on that hashrate, cryptoblog still say that it need to be tested

and i don't care about ethereum, i know for sure that crypto will be always profitable, etheruem is not the first and not the last of the altcoin mining

not to mention that little coin that are much more profitable than ethereum for one day, are still there popping out, from time to time

Proof? Probably because they said it had Nano-like performance and watt efficiency. And the bus width allow plenty of memory bandwitdh for it. It's true that the reports on reddit aren't substantiated with a video showing the S/N of a rx 480x. Maybe they're all fakers. Wink

we are not even talking about 480x but 480 only(bad typo from me in the other post indeed), the 480x will likely consume more, see you didn't pay attention to this discussion

seeing the specs it should be lower than 30MH, since the 390 have more bandwidth(2x) and it does 32MH

Pretty cool.   Please post hash rate logs or screenshot plz.

Maybe ethminer -G --list-devices too.


I'm considering buying a 1080 for shits and giggles.  Pleas note guys...its not just for ethereum usage either Smiley
Check 1070/1080 thread for other pics

Hackers please hack me .... if you can :)
I have never liked radeon cards as the last one I had over heated and nearly destroyed my entire computer.

I think I will stick to Nvida GeForce they always overclock for me without any problems with overheating and nearly blowing up my pc system.

I'm pretty excited  for the 480 and 490 for that case.  If you can get a nice hash say 22mh and low watts of say 120 watts that would be a pretty big win in my book.  Much easier to build a rig with $200 cards than $600 cards any day of the week.

As far as the end of mining, yeah possibly but who knows when the next big profitable coin will rise up.  Likely there will be slim profits on every coin after ether, until some coin can build a giant market cap.  Personally I'll ride the wave as long as possiblr , hope the ether guys delay the switch and use my ethers to buy in on upcoming coins.  The richest people had ethers early and the value skyrocketed, most sold early on and live with those regrets.

Hopefully ETH will continue rally to some level of $50-75

And I agree that after ETH mining we will find another one

I need a new graphics card and was just about to buy one when they announced the RX480.
Would be interested to see how this mines etherium or other altcoins.
$200 seems like a good deal for this card.

By the moment "better" cards will be released and available ETH may drop in price, difficulty increases etc



not immediately, huge farm can not afford to change each of their gpu to the new one, so only small farm will have an advantage

I've seen the other post of the 27mh on 1070.

There is zero evidence to backup his claim.

Until I see pictures or posts from a trusted user then I will remain suspicious.
I do respect the community -  i'll post the picture of the rig with 6 1080s running on windows
It will be nice to gain a point of trust in exchange though Smiley

Please do so at your earliest convenience, I am debating between Nanos and 1080s.
You should consider 1070 - even if they fix the perf - still 1070 is a better buy - i dont have one at the moment - but 6 1080 should look nice Wink

I fail to see how a 400$ card with less perf of a 200$ card can translate to being "a better buy".

you need to read it again, he mean a better buy compared to the 1080, not 480

also 480 real hash is yet to be seen could be only 22MH at 150w

real price of custom design is also different than target price, we might speak about a less difference

also there is an algo right now on where nvidia is vastly better, i don't buy a card only because of etheruem
You must be kidding no other algo is worth mining even close to ethereum when ethereum ends in six months I wil sell all my cards like most others will.  Unless you have free power or under 5 cents which 90% of people do
Mining ends with eth most likely

sure "mining end with ethereum"

It was seen, it does 30MH/s as expected. I'm saying 1070 nor 1080 is a better buy than AMD currently, i'm not saying x Nvidia card > what Nvidia card. But yeah i didnt reread the whole thread. I'm just surprised people are still debating. Its all.

where it was seen, can you provide link? maybe i missed it
