They hash fairly well... I don't like dual GPUs, but 7950s are long since sold out everywhere... Title: Re: Newegg now offering "Miner's starter set" Post by: Zombie123 on December 31, 2013, 02:16:48 PM XFX are terrible for mining I have XFX R9 290 *3 No other brand was availaible and these were 399 at Amazon ;D ( Now these are 499).. All running at 820KH ( i know a bit low ) but they are pretty stable Title: Re: Newegg now offering "Miner's starter set" Post by: eroxors on December 31, 2013, 02:52:13 PM Newegg sucks.
They used to be good, now they aren't. Trying to sell 7970s for ~$400 when the same thing can be had (R9 280X) for $300... I'm not impressed. Title: Re: Newegg now offering "Miner's starter set" Post by: Zombie123 on December 31, 2013, 03:24:54 PM Dont hate newegg hate AMD. Even the prices on Amazon have increased. I got XFX 290 for 399 now they are 499.. ie in 15 days

Title: Re: Newegg now offering "Miner's starter set" Post by: mdude77 on December 31, 2013, 03:48:08 PM XFX are terrible for mining XFX cards are terrible all around. I've never had a single XFX card that didn't eventually have problems that I had to RMA.

M +1 Since Amazon is in WA state I get charged sales tax. Newegg is CA so no tax (for me). Newegg all day long...
