N2DCRYPT: At this time our focus with ePIC Boost is on our 570 16GB card.

Lunobird: I am looking at some data right now that is showing over the long haul we actually mine C31 faster than a 1080ti with our 570 card. I need some time to get more info on the stuff I am being told but this looks promising.

XXCSU: Our focus right now is on Grin but I will see what we can do about getting some testing with other coins.

I am curious why grin31 is being targeted when that is the ASIC friendly version of the algo, Grin29 is meant for GPUs


C31 has a higher return on investment, by putting the focus here we allow the miner to get the best return for the investment of time made.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. The 200 or so watts I mentioned is a single card total system load, not the card load, as some seem to have assumed.

Radeon VII has 16GB of RAM, that should be the 1st choice for developing a GRIN mining soft

The reason we developed the 570 card was because it offers a more affordable solution for people to use. With a lower cost, lower power draw and that fact that the 470/570 has been overall one of the most efficient mining chips out this is a great product for those looking for a more cost effective solution.

So a few replies...

Metroid: for GRIN COIN, the use of GPUs is the only source of mining right now and our 570 16GB card is the lowest cost card that can efficiently mine C31 for GRIN. So there are still some buying GPUs for mining.

Lunobird, I will pass your request along. The 570 is an older chip but a tried and true efficient miner.

Badbart, ASICs are still a ways out and even then might not be as cost effective, especially with the planned branch coming up that changes the mining to C32.

After being the first to market with the SAPPHIRE RX 570 16GB HDMI Blockchain Graphics Card specially designed for the GRIN Community. SAPPHIRE is first again with the only Grin solution that will support Cuckatoo 32 protocol as a result of the recent update to the ePIC Boost Miner software and in preparation for Grin migrating to C32 in January 2020.

Updated ePIC Boost software drivers are now available to download here: https://gpuminer.sapphiretech.com/software/
