Title: about an amd 6950 Post by: phillyj on April 19, 2013, 11:22:33 PM I saw a refurb 6950 (gigabyte, I think). It's probably around $170. I was thinking of a 7870 and the cheapest is around $200, if I can sell the game codes for $20. The codes value have dropped and probably can't guarantee it.
Take a chance on a refurb 6950 or get a 7870? Don't mention the ASIC and profit drops. It's more of a learning experience. Going to be modding my case too. The only cost I would have to recover is for the GFX and PSU which will probably be under $300.

Goals: * 28 nm (7870) vs 40 nm process (6950) * 175 watts (7870) vs 250 watts (6950) (at 100% load) It mean draw less power / less heating as result. Both ~350...400 MH/s. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_Hardware_Comparison For analyse. |
