Title: Help me choose the best GPU for me Post by: atomixdj on December 18, 2017, 11:43:36 PM Hi everyone, I want to start mining with a low budget. My GPU options for the money are:
1- 1x Asus Radeon Rx 560 4gb Gddr5 2- 1x Sapphire Radeon Rx 460 4gb Gddr5 3- 1x Nvidia Geforce Gtx 1050ti Asus Strix Oc 4gb Gddr5 4- 1x Nvidia Evga Gtx 1050 Ti 4 Gb 5- 1x MSI Armor R9 380 2gb Gddr5 My processor is an AMD FX8350 4GB Ram So which GPU card should I get? I plan to mine ETH or XMR. Note that I will not be affected by electricity cost. Thanks!

Title: Re: Help me choose the best GPU for me Post by: atomixdj on December 19, 2017, 12:15:10 AM what is your psu rating ? (Watts) 600 watts or maybe I could get a 700watt if needed.

Some of the other options could work but out of those choices that is the one that I would go with.

If you are planning to mine ETH then go for rx560 Title: Re: Help me choose the best GPU for me Post by: atomixdj on December 19, 2017, 01:22:41 AM Hi everyone, I want to start mining with a low budget.

AMD has lowered the performance specification on the RX 560, so make sure you get the cards with 1024 cores and not the new gimped RX 560's with only
896. https://www.guru3d.com/news_story/radeon_rx_560_amd_silently_changes_gpu_specification.html Title: Re: Help me choose the best GPU for me Post by: Moondoggie on December 20, 2017, 02:37:43 AM Try save a bit more for the 1070ti if you can
Title: Re: Help me choose the best GPU for me Post by: jhon_rambo25 on December 20, 2017, 07:01:13 AM To be patient. Wait for enough money to get RX580 or 1070.
