Unless you can get a decent deal on the current gen cards, I would wait. The expected launch is within 1-2 months and availibility should improve with the launch.

7 heavily undervolted RX 570 consume about 750W from the wall while solo mining. There's nothing special in this.
hmm ok, carry on then. But still, those numbers beat what antmain is claiming about their asic, which is 200-220mhs @ $2500 when I inquire the company about availability, they said the demand is too big for them to handle atm and the wait will be "very long" Bitmain hasen't claimed anything. It's a rumor posted on a Chinese website and the article didn't mention anything about hash rate. |

Don't hard code the clocks in the Bios if you don't know what you're doing. You only need to adjust the memory timings in the Bios. You can try the Polaris Bios Editor 'One Click Timing Patch' bundled performance timings on the original Bios after you back it up. https://github.com/jaschaknack/PolarisBiosEditorWith a modded Bios on the RX 570 you also need to run the pixel patcher after you update or install the drivers to bypass the Bios signature check or the card will have a Code 43 error in the Windows Device Manager. https://www.monitortests.com/forum/Thread-AMD-ATI-Pixel-Clock-PatcherAfter flashing the Bios, start over by running DDU in safe mode to uninstall the drivers, install the latest AMD Adrenaline drivers, run the pixel patcher, set compute mode in AMD settings, reboot and set the core/memory clocks for the card in the Claymore .bat or config file with: -cclock 1150 -mclock 2000 -powlim -5 -cvddc 950 -mvddc 950 https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/DH-024.aspx |

2100 MHz is a very high memory clock for a RX 570 4GB card. Try lowering it to 2000 MHz or 1950 MHz.

You need to use the miner for what ever algorithm the coin is using, which is specified in the announcement. Claymore's ETH dual miner, Bminer, ccminer, etc. If it's a new algorithm, often there will only be a CPU miner at launch.

You got scammed. If the transaction is within eBay's money back guarantee 30 day after delivery window, unless you can drag the buyer to say something in the dispute that proves he's trying to scam you, which they are under no obligation to even communicate with you, eBay will allow the 'buyer' to return the 'item they claim they received' for a 100% refund and you pay the shipping both ways. It's too easy for ANYONE to file a fraudulent return under any false pretense they can imagine. That's the reality of selling high risk items on eBay.

I agree. I doubt manufacturer's and distributors would be too receptive to the idea when they can't even supply their regular vendors. You may have better luck inquiring about mining cards though.

You need a motherboard with PCI-E slots for mining. That board is so old it only has PCI slots which is NOT compatible with PCI-E GPU's. The cheapest new motherboard for up to 6 cards is the Biostar TB85 or H81. The board with a LGA 1150 CPU and 4GB DDR3 should be <$200. Or you can read this thread for other ideas. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1955358.0 |

I predict it's going to be exactly 0 MH/s Vapourware. Vaporware is often announced months or years before its purported release, with few details about its development being released. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporware |

It's a result of a number of factors coming together at the same time. A worldwide shortage of DRAM, GDDR6 production for the new architectures typing up the production of GDDR5, AMD and specifically Nvidia currently switching production to the new products, while at the same time increased demand from Crypto mining. Supply will probably start to get better once the new architectures launch starting in 1-2 months. As for pricing, IMO that's going to take a while to get back to where it was at the end of last year.
Do you think its best to wait and see what the new architecture puts out or buy the Pascal cards now (if you can get them)? I'm not really in a rush to get the new rig set up as I just put one together and I only have electrical wiring for maybe 1 more rig. “Best” thing to do would be wait for the new cards to debut and buy pascals either new or used at a discount. The new cards never have the best cooling solutions right out of the gate. I have 1070ti’s running at 48-50 degrees.. big difference in room temperature when temps are in the 40’s vs 60’s I wouldn't expect much of a discount on the previous gen cards in this market. Case in point, I bought a Powercolor HD 7850 2GB card for $120 after a $30 rebate in 01/2014, while there was a price run up on GPU's at that time as well. Today I can still sell that card for ~$80 on eBay after 4 years. |

You would also be better off posting this in the refrenced coin thread so people will have an idea of what you are talking about.
