Title: Radeon HD 8000? (little help translating Turkish pls?)
Post by: waterboyserver on June 08, 2012, 07:27:32 AM
Stumbled upon this, Google Chrome produces a weird translation:

http://www.donanimhaber.com/ekran-karti/haberleri/AMD-Radeon-HD-8000-serisine-iliskin-ilk-isaretler.htm

Radeon 8970 & 8950 = codenamed Venus XTX & XT
Radeon 8800 = Venus LE & Pro
Radeon 8700 = Oland
Radeon 8300-8600 = Mars

Most of these are planets in outer space, except Öland is an island, lol, not exactly "Sea Islands."

Edit:

Don't think it mines very fast, if at all...  :P

More info here:

Expected Radeon series 8000 for 2013....

Do you think this 8000 series would be better than current series for mhash/sec/$ ?

Hmm... I will pick one up for Litecoin mining when more stable GPU miners are released for it.

At the moment only 5xxx and 6xxx are truly good for litecoin mining, 7xxx is a little unstable.
