Title: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: nookiegirl on May 13, 2013, 02:00:40 PM Hi there,
I am still thinking about switching from BTC to LTC mining and was wondering why most people mine LTC with 7950 instead of 7970. Any good reason for that? Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: Boxman90 on May 13, 2013, 02:04:56 PM I wondered the same. My rigs are built with 7970's --> maximum hashing power per motherboard. All hitting 750kh/s and some even 790.
So yeah.. Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: nitefire on May 13, 2013, 02:06:46 PM Because your cost calculations weighted with equipment costs and wattage results in a better earning and shorter ROI on 7950s
Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: aa on May 13, 2013, 02:07:03 PM It's because people with 7950s aren't mentally challenged. 7950 hits 690Kh/s easily with way less power usage and a lot less cost per GPU.

Any good reason for that? The reason why 7950s are generally preferred to 7970s is because of their superior price/performance ratio. 7950s are also often considered to be more efficient than 7970s (i.e. more Kh/s per watt) although in my own experience I find them to be equally efficient when used with the proper settings.

I still haven't found the settings to break 600kh/s each but I'm still happy with the results and happy that I didn't go with the 7970s. I think people who buy 7970s are just bad at math or wanted a nice gaming card that they can mine with on the side.

Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: anderl on May 13, 2013, 02:23:58 PM I did the ROI on all the 5000 6000 and 7000 series. The result was that the 7950s outperform the better cards based on dollar value. There is usually a market up by hardware manufactured for the best of breed models to offset that fewer people will choose them over cheaper cards. There are a few best of breed 6900s and 5900s that do very well at hashing rates per dollar but fail to provide a cost benefit to 7950's lower wattage
As to the resale value. I'm writing off depreciation of hardware assets so it somewhat offsets the loss when these cards go back on the market in about 18 months. Factoring depreciation (not expected resale value) 7950s still do better. I keep up on the price changes and if and when 7970s break into the sweet spot of the cost value curve I'll start buying them. Until then 7950s all the way. Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: destruct on May 13, 2013, 02:25:13 PM I get ~550kh/s with my 7950's (Sapphire 40g)
Based on the price of cards and power consumption of the 7970's as well as current coin prices the extra $100 isn't worth it. Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: grobbes on May 13, 2013, 02:26:15 PM 7950's can get 660 KH/s without breaking a sweat. 7970's are pickier to tweak. Price.
Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: qiuness on May 13, 2013, 02:30:29 PM interesting thread...
i did some math here in Romania: 7950 1300 RON (394$) Avg 600KH 2.16RON/H (0.65$/H) 7970 1650 RON (500$) Avg 800KH 2.06RON/H (0.62$/H) 7970 1700 RON (515$) Avg 800KH 2.12RON/H (0.64$/H) 7950 1300 RON (394$) Avg 620KH 2.09RON/H (0.63$/H) 7970 1650 RON (500$) Avg 760KH 2.17RON/H (0.65$/H) 7970 1700 RON (515$) Avg 760KH 2.23RON/H (0.67$/H) So basically there is no tangible difference between the 2.. Maybe 7970 will have a better resale value when you sell your farm. Unless of course i`m wrong about the averages. Because i saw 7950's that do 640KH but i don't remember many 7970's doing 800.. So basically if the math is done with an average of 620 for 7950 and 760 for 7970 you actually get a better deal getting 7950's Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: nookiegirl on May 13, 2013, 02:39:38 PM Because your cost calculations weighted with equipment costs and wattage results in a better earning and shorter ROI on 7950s I'd like some numbers on that better kh/J claim.

As long as the kh/J rating is the same, there are no 'extra electricity costs', relatively this stays the same but yet you reap better benefits from lower difficulties, because you have more hashing power. You make loose claims and sound butthurt that you don't have 7970's somehow. The cards don't instantly lose their value either, so all bullshit about ROI is mere speculation as well.

If you had done your math properly, you'd have taken into account that the cards dont *POOF* lose all their value when you buy them. You don't 'lose' an extra 100$ which has to be completely paid back by the cards. Also I had 4x the ROI of my rigs by lucking out on FTC - and that ROI was before I even bought them!

Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: AzureEngineer on May 13, 2013, 03:53:27 PM Buy 7950s for mining. I have 2x7970 and 4x7950, and I can say the 7950's have the same performance at a much lower energy cost. The 7950's can also seem to handle a lower voltage a lot better than the 7970's. If the rig is going to be used just for mining, there is absolutely no reason to buy 7970s, as there is no benefit to them when it comes to how much money you're going to make.

I run them all at 725KH/s, though, which gives me the best kh/s/w ratio at about 3.4kh/s/w.

My 7950's do 670-680 easy, and that's not even pushing them (I can get over 700 but choose not to due to extra heat/power). Sounds like you took the worst 7970 out there. As I said, I've got a batch of 12 Sapphire 7970's that ALL do 750 easily, most of them more.

I have an xfx 7950 DD, and I can't get it past 500 KH/s...If I try to OC at all, the driver crashes >:(

Powercolor Radeon HD 7970 925MHZ 3GB 5.5GBPS GDDR5 V3 DVI HDMI 2XMINIDP PCI-E Video Card It's on sale at NCIX for $359.99. I'm looking to add a card, and I'm torn between the 7970 and another 7950 Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: blazin8s on May 13, 2013, 06:12:44 PM I've got a batch of 12 Sapphire 7970's that ALL do 750 easily, most of them more. What settings do you use for 750s? And 800? :) Right now I'm getting 730s with 1050/1500 on my Sapphire 7970s Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: Kinetic915 on May 13, 2013, 06:32:20 PM i find the power to hash ratio is higher with a 7950.
Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: Luckybit on May 13, 2013, 06:59:41 PM It's because people with 7950s aren't mentally challenged. 7950 hits 690Kh/s easily with way less power usage and a lot less cost per GPU. But it also has less resale value. You're right about cost per watt and heat, 7970 was running way too hot when I got it and I have to undervolt it.Title: Re: LTC - Why are you mining with 7950 and not with 7970 Post by: ymer on May 13, 2013, 07:01:01 PM It's because people with 7950s aren't mentally challenged. 7950 hits 690Kh/s easily with way less power usage and a lot less cost per GPU.

If so, what exact model gives you the most kh/s? |
