Title: 5670 is very efficient Post by: wblabla4 on April 07, 2013, 07:52:46 AM Yes, it is very efficient. It does 150mh/s slightly overclocked(850 core) and it is only 50$! So you can get 600mh/s for a mere 200$. 6870 does that for 250$! But before you run to your local store, be sure to buy Powercolor ones because they're slightly different from regular 5670's. Here be pics:

Now go and buy some 5670's! but how would you run 4 of them in 1 computer? not enough pci-e slots Title: Re: 5670 is very efficient Post by: akshapatil on April 07, 2013, 08:41:17 AM Can we use this for litecoin mining too ????

Title: Re: 5670 is very efficient Post by: wblabla4 on April 07, 2013, 08:53:00 AM What is the power consumption? I could fit 2 of them easily with a 500W Cooler Master PSU. Don't know the exact power consumption though. The rest of the system is: Gigabyte GA-970A-D3 Motherboard(only got 4 PCI-e) OCZ Vertex 3 60GB a laptop HDD(don't know the exact model but it's Western Digital) AMD Phenom II x6 1100T Black Edition 4 of those power hungry LED fans EDIT: And BTW they require a 6-pin PCI-e power connector for each card.
