Title: any good coin for 2GB R7 370?
Post by: nerdralph on February 23, 2017, 04:46:01 PM
I've been doing EXP for the last couple weeks, but with the recent price drop, profit per card is not much more than 10c/day.

hi,
I think monero is the best for r7 370.
If your card can do 1150 for core and 1500 for mem with claymore you can have 500h per card with -a 4.

Even if I could get 500h/s, that's only 50c/d.  At 140W/card, and ~12c/kWh, 40c of that goes to electricity costs.

With the Pitcairn your only choice is the XMR or ZEC or EXP.

XMR @ 500 H/s gets you $0.54
ZEC @ 175 H/s gets you $0.59
EXP @ 20MH/s gets you $0.67

You can also try to dual mine and maybe get an extra 5 pennies.



Yeah its tough, but at least your GPU is paid off. The RX 470/480 for other's don't make much of a difference anyways. In these markets its not worth upgrading GPUs at this time.

Zec: with Claymore 12.1 is near of 200 sols, Eth:12-15MHS and Xmr 450hs.

I don't think you can get 15MH/s with ETH, maybe 12 with some overclocking/memory hacking tweaks

Yeah, my standart xfx goes to 12mhs, i see some memory straps config will come near to 15.

I'm thinking of selling some of my 370s with warmer weather on its way.  Where I live I can get about C$100 (USD75) for a 2GB R7 370.

Yeah that was maybe 6 months ago possible, not today.

 2 GB card, forget even trying ETH (though ETC might still be possible as it has a smaller DAG file) as the DAG file is too big to fit on the card any more.
