There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

I just got one of those from Newegg for $199($20 gift card made it $179),it does 22mhs right out of the box (win7 64) @ 80% fan = 58c  Oh & it's pretty quiet compared to my ref 7970  |

Since were on the topic of power and the 380...has anyone tried to under volt this with stock settings? What type of power drawl do you get with a under volt? Dropping some watts off of course means cooling operation and more profit per card. I do this to my 7950's and it made a huge difference |

how does the Sapphire Nitro compare with the ASUS Strix? They are both available for slightly less than $300 CAD and are about evenly specced.
Based on looks alone, i would go with the strix. But hashrate and fan noise are also factors

is that consumption correct, or it is for gaming, that review is not for mining, they consume more for mining |

But Ethereum will convert to PoS early next year. |
