Title: Gigabyte 7950 - 3gig vs 2gig
Post by: c1010010 on April 12, 2013, 05:40:04 AM

For litecoin mining, I know with GPUs it is memory intensive... But HOW intensive?

Given that there are two Gigabyte 7950 models... One with 3G and one with 2G... Will there be any real difference in hashing speeds?

Advice, pls

Well I lied.

Well, not a lie. Apparently the seller changed their listing.  There is only 1.

Carry on.  Nothing to see here.

the title lures me in ;)

but I do see all the 7950/70 PCB, they have like two tick boxes with values 1.5G and 3G
is there any 7950/7970 card with 1.5G ram?
