Title: GPU advice Post by: nivek03 on March 26, 2013, 04:53:43 PM I'm going to try to make a GPU rig before ASICs skyrocket the difficulty. I'm thinking of getting 7950s. I'm looking at this one particularly.

Dammit, there were no answers when I opened the thread :-\ Yah, I've been looking at that wiki page. Not much info on brands though. Depends, do you want to overclock it or not?Title: Re: GPU advice Post by: zif33rs on March 26, 2013, 05:08:10 PM Ive had good luck with Sapphire products in the past. That being said I am running a Powercolor 7950 atm for mining..its a good card but needs better cooling. Im thinking about ordering that sapphire myself for a 2nd miner...let me know what you think. :)

I was also checking out the Vapor-X model. Looks like it has better cooling and 50Mhz high core clock when boosted. Not sure if its worth the extra money. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202003 Could this one potentially have a higher hash rate? |
