Title: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on July 04, 2015, 04:47:25 AM I want to buy a video card but I need to know the hash rate between 280X and GTX 970 with Lyra2RE with Pallas miner and X11 with x11mod.
Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: Amph on July 04, 2015, 08:31:20 AM 970 is better, better hash and better consumption(lower wattage), no comaprison, 280x is old, if you want to go with amd buy a 390(not the x version) , should be good enough and faster than a 970
Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on July 04, 2015, 09:21:59 AM But the 390 doesn't have VGA output, I heard the 380 is the same as 280 and I can't see any 380X,
I just need to see the hash numbers first. Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: LordCoder on July 04, 2015, 09:49:15 AM I have bought a 380 for mining. If you want some hashrate information, tell me the hash you'd like to try and I mine for you.
Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on July 05, 2015, 07:57:49 AM I need to know X11 and Lyra2RE.
Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: LordCoder on July 05, 2015, 03:16:22 PM I need to know X11 and Lyra2RE. X11: 3 Mhash/sec Lyra2RE: 457.2 khash/sec (maybe using awful config). Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: sp_ on July 06, 2015, 07:29:47 AM I need to know X11 and Lyra2RE. X11: 3 Mhash/secLyra2RE: 457.2 khash/sec (maybe using awful config). 3mhash is too low. You need new optimized binaries from wolf0 compiled for the Tonga chipset. maybe he will sell it to you? Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on July 06, 2015, 07:41:21 AM I suspect the GTX will be faster, especially with Quark, X11, Lyra2RE and Grĝestls.
LordCoder, check lyra with different -w numbers, I got from 71 to 143 Khash by changing from -w 256 to -w 32 with my integrated Intel graphics (HD 4600 @ 1500 MHz). With CPU I get 802 Khash (i7 4770K @ 4100 MHz) I think I gonna change to Nvidia ;D Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: LordCoder on July 06, 2015, 06:05:15 PM I need to know X11 and Lyra2RE.

Probably, but think that it's more than a 290x with public binaries, so it's worth IMO.

I'm going to check for Lyra2RE if that config is good for it.
Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: sp_ on July 07, 2015, 10:46:25 AM the 280x should do around 5-5.5MHASH with the 280x.
You need wolf0 optimized binaries: Get them from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DRKCoin/comments/2o1yoz/rewritten_x11_binaries/ copy them into the sgminer folder. or just download this: http://cryptomining-blog.com/5186-updated-miner-control-tool-packages-for-amd-and-nvidia-3/ 1. Download the latest AMD driver 15.6 beta 2. copy wolf0's binfile and rename it to the same name as the generated binfile The latest drivers will automaticly recompile the bin file to the correct architecture. So if you have a tahiti bin, it will be converted to a tonga bin behind the scenes. Note that on the older drivers. 14.6 14.7 etc this don't work. Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on July 12, 2015, 03:03:02 AM Anyone With GTX 970?
Also would like to know Skein, Quark, Scrypt and SHA256D.

Wasn't getting that back when I toyed around with Wolf0's stuff, and I got quite a boost from sweetspotting my card.
Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: rednoW on July 14, 2015, 11:00:50 AM could someone test 280x with kachur x11 bin?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632503.msg11875320#msg11875320 I've got more then 6mhs on 7950 at 1100mhs. 280x must be better. But i still prefer quark as it can be run with low memory frequency and low temps. As for the lyra - nvidia has an epic win here with latest djm's ans sp_'s achievements. Small and cool gtx750 1gb doing better then huge monster - my 7950 3gb.

Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on July 23, 2015, 08:22:28 AM But those GTX hash rates are for 2 cards and because I don't know when my pocket will stretch enough to get the GTX I decided to buy the R9 280X, a SAPPHIRE Vapor-X 100363VX-3L ;D
Too bad cause that Zotac Omega Core looked sick. :( Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on April 01, 2016, 09:26:31 AM But those GTX hash rates are for 2 cards and because I don't know when my pocket will stretch enough to get the GTX I decided to buy the R9 280X, a SAPPHIRE Vapor-X 100363VX-3L ;D Too bad cause that Zotac Omega Core looked sick. :( So sick :-[ :) http://s10.postimg.org/iu20ebv95/Zotac_Omega_Core.jpg Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: lolxxxx on April 01, 2016, 09:31:29 AM Go for gtx 970 i just bought a 970 used for 340$ try to buy EVGA ACX or FTW with dual fan they are cooler then the others . r9 280x is a old version but 970 is newer version with more hash rate go for 970, But AMD is better for mining .

Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: sildyas on April 01, 2016, 10:04:16 AM What is that bigger card? If it has too many fans, that means the power consumption of the card is too big. It is not efficient.
Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: bathrobehero on April 01, 2016, 10:06:38 AM What is that bigger card? If it has too many fans, that means the power consumption of the card is too big. It is not efficient. It's shopped. And your efficient statement is not very logical. Power consumption translates into heat which needs to be dissipated. Besides, fans barely use any juice. Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: ReiMomo on April 02, 2016, 09:46:00 PM Ha ha, I did that on mspaint for Aprils fools :P
I wish there were one with 5 fans, that will measure about 21 inch (53.34 cm) ;D At the end the R9 280X end up being faster. Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: antantti on April 02, 2016, 10:25:30 PM 7970/ 280x is better for cheap fast eth hash power. 2 x 7970 (40MH) = 1 x 970 (20MH) pricewise.

Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: Zitdadast on April 29, 2016, 09:24:24 AM For Ethereum mining, I will buy R9 390. It has more GRAM, so maybe a little future proof for other coins.

Just built a new one and was faced with a similar decision, which card etc. First decided on 4x GTX R9 280x but ran into heatsink issues with the card I chose, RMA blah blah... Have 3x GTX R9 390 (not-x) coming tomorrow. Was a little more expensive but I can still add a 4th one later and will be better end the end.

I have seen some offers out there 280x for a third of the 970 ... so its either buy 3x 280x or 1x 970 ... setting up your rig on miningrigrentals would be best option if u don't have time to watch altcoins , if u have time you should follow up some of those traders on twitter / new altcoins launches and mine it normally they go at least 2x In my country, the 970 is double the price of 280x. It might be better to buy the 970 as it uses less electricity. the 280 also has only 3gb, this mean that by the end of the year will be almost useless with ethereum and any other dag algo By the end of this year, the DAG size will be around 1800MB, it is still lower than 3GB. But the hashing could be low. Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: Ayers on May 07, 2016, 05:55:04 AM well it all depends on the initial price in your country ....

Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: Fasdartin on May 08, 2016, 08:40:56 AM It seems the difficulty is flat at the moment? Is there any reason for that? So the big farms are not adding.

The difficulty of Ethereum mining just set a new record. It is 35T now. So the miners are still very confident. Title: Re: GTX 970 vs R9 280X Post by: lolxxxx on May 10, 2016, 08:43:28 PM Well I just bought a Gtx 970 used one @very reasonable price it came with all accessories and box . I will try to mine some altcoin and check the hash rate i get . I bought this card for gaming not for mining so i just check the hash rate . However i think that AMD is better then NVIDIA.
Gtx 1080 and 1070 will be release soon . Price of 1080 will be 600$ at launch and 1070 price will be around 400$. What are your ideas about both card ?

Thanks for telling. well it's not low, because you need to think big, with 6 gpu this is 360 and so on no one is mining with 1 gpu only, also gpu have two year warranty not like asic, so i see no problem in rma it, besides this i don't think that mining will do anything to your gpu...
