You can mine with R7 270. http://ethpool.org/ is a good pool. So you can mine there without too much problem. But try to use the stratum miner.

For ETH mining should i go with R7 370 [Cheaper | 15M] or R9 380 [Mid Range | ~ 20M] or R9 390 [Expensive | ~ 30M] as I cannot decide.

cheaper gpu require more rig to have same, hash, bigger gpu with bigger hash is always better, less components needed if you want to go big

Best quality price/hashrate is R9 380x and you dont need necessarly a big PSU.
R9 290 tends to consume a lot of electricity and they generate lot of heat.
Idk about R9 390, I'll get one by the end of the week.

Can anyone help me to resolve AMD driver issue as I am getting Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) randomly on three of AMD 7950. And windows keeps restarting intermittently. I have remove all drivers and reinstall but still not help even I remove all AMD with Driver Fusion. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fs17.postimg.org%2Frv5ufd37f%2Famderror.jpg&t=665&c=K_HBxvIeTYAc4Q) All 5 GPUs were working perfectly until i tried to install R9 290 which does not even detect on the motherboards and now having troubles with the rest of 7950s . Worst case i may need to reinstall OS?

Cheers . It does work but my Mobo does not detect R9 290 anymore now. I will have to test it on another mobo hopefully it is not damaged although the fan is still spinning.

I think 290 is damaged but I dont get any sounds or error when it is connected on mobo. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fs11.postimg.org%2Fy3bn9jxm7%2FCapture.jpg&t=665&c=y5hTDEoBDf453Q) I do not know What might be the issue .

If you install the 290 in the main PCIE slot, does it show the system start up? it does not need display to do that.

Nothing shows up on the monitor when I install the gpu on the main PCIE slot. But I am not getting any IO errors when the system is being started. Does it matter whether i use DVI or HDMI cable to connect a monitor?
