Title: New AMD Ryzen for mining
Post by: shield132 on February 15, 2018, 09:28:11 PM
You may know that AMD has two new Ryzen processors out which has built-in Radeon Vega, it's CPU and GPU at the same time and is so great that there is alone works perfectly for gaming (not for AAA rated games but still great if we consider that this is something like all in one).
Has anyone tried it for mining? For example for Monero or. any other coin?
Seems interesting...

Therese already a thread on this.

But... overall, 4MB L3 cache really cripples them.

Would you mind linking that thread please?
It looks like it's been submerged in a sea of spam...

Guess I'll start googling it otherwise...

Thanks... Not very promising indeed... Especially since you couldn't "stack" several of those on one motherboard. Meh.
