The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Don't even bother with GT120. I had GT130 in the past it's a piece of shit. The graphics performance is decent but compute is very weak and consumption is high (120 will be better but not by much). The architecture is too quirky to work efficiently on anything but graphics.

If you manage to run ZIFTR on 4870 I'll be surprised. AMD OpenCL is often a bit... surprising, let's put it this way. Tongue

As you might have noticed, people here think at 100 bucks like "just 100 bucks".
I didn't want to put you down but really, most people here mine speculatively (hoping to get in the black in the future) or at a loss. Those making a profit are the minority and those making short-term profit by mining are even less.

Your electricity bill will go up. You can fry cheap PSUs by running them too long. Be careful.
