If you have a good electricity rate then it still in the game, only for zcash but not eth,i think it's getting 250h/s on equihash algorithm

I think it does really well on Zcash so it might be still profitable there. Eth not so much.

if its really 28.7Mh/s then i think it could reach many eth balance in your account so you can start to collect the coins. but first thing that you need to check is how much your electricity fee and if the mining can cover your fee, then you can continue for mining eth and in the end, you can reach your own profit.

I have one, it can do 31eth+1200dcr but consumption is huge
You can do 365sols zec at 200watt, not as good as nvidia but better then nothing.

Right now my hawaii daily powerbill is about 12% of daily paper revenue so yes, they are still very much in the game.

The 290 is a great gpu, I started mining with it on eth over a year ago and still going strong today.

Long term this gpu is going to suck, consumption is just too high, I currently only have 2 of them left in my mini-farm.

IMO it's a situation where if you own it then use it otherwise grab yourself some rx 5xx gpus.

R9s are still mining monsters they are not power efficient but how cares if you have a good electricity price then you should be in the top of the game.
