Radeon RX 480 --- How many LTC can it mine per day?

[allankey]

The internet is buzzing with news about the latest $200 Radeon RX 480. Does anyone knows how to calculate the amount of LTC it could mine per day on one of those cards?

Nobody knows yet, no benchmarks have been released so  nobody actually knows how the card performs. If you get the card I recommend you mine something else than LTC such as Ethereum or an X11 coin because scrypt has asics that are way faster than any gpu.

The product is available on 29 june, so there are not people can real calculate about that. Because the product is not yet on markets. And i think you must move this thread on mining alt coins

We'd only be able to calculate that with some precision only after the card is out. Seriously though, don't buy newly released cards if your only use for them is mining. Wait for some specs so you can calculate profitability. Also note that ethereum mining is currently more profitable.

wrong place to asking about mining hardware
i think you must move it to righ sub forum

People should probably mention in the first place that Litecoin is a ASIC zone now, and it does not matter how good your GPU is, you should not mine LTC with it, at all. Bar none.

We cannot use it to mine the litecoin. It will be not profitable. You can use that to mine the Ethereum.

Not enough to pay for it's electric usage.

 Odds are good it won't get much if any over 1MH/s - which is worse efficiency than the 2.7MHs (appx) at 90 (appx) watts the old Gridseed 80 Blade FIRST GENERATION Scrypt capable ASIC managed (we're about a month or so out from the Innosilicon A4, which is at LEAST a 3'd and arguably a 4'th generation ASIC for Scrypt).


 We're in the right forum area BTW - thread might have gotten moved before I saw it though.


 RX 480 should be a good Ethereum miner, though it might be a bit too late to achieve ROI on it given how much the diff of Ethereum has been increasing of late and that the price has NOT been keeping up the last couple months.

It could be more efficient than the R9 nano, so if the difficulty just rise 5% a month, it will achieve ROI.

Difficulty growth is over 10TH/month so it is about 20% and I guess it will be higher when new cards hit markets

 Diff growth on Ethereum has been more like 40-50% per month the last few months, and NO end in sight yet.

i think with RX 480 w can earn arround 1LTc/day

It is not possible. Maybe 0.1 ltc a day. Litecoin is mineable profitably with ASIC. The days for gpu are long gone.

[QuintLeo]

To achieve 0.1 LTC/day, the card would have to mine about 10 MH/s - which is *AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE* greater than any GPU has ever managed.

 NOT POSSIBLE.

 I seriously doubt the card will be able to manage 2 MH/s, much less 10.
1.something it MIGHT manage - but that's entirely due to it clocking quite a bit higher than any other card ever used for Litecoin, and DESPITE it having fewer stream units than some cards that HAVE been used for Litecoin in the past.

 Keep in mind that Scrypt wasn't a "memory intensive" protocal to anywhere near the same degree that Ethereum is - it was more limited by the processing units x clock rate.

 I stand by my original reply, it won't be as efficient as ANY Scrypt-related ASIC has managed - closer than anything that came before, but STILL inferior to the original-generation GC3355 much less anything more current - and those GC3355 units are NOT PROFITABLE any more unless you have free electric.

That means Radeon RX480 is overrated, in your opinion?

the suggestion is: do not mine litecoin with graphics cards, any graphics cards. You will not make any profit.

 No, it just means don't try to compete with ASIC in mining with a GPU (which means forget any coin that uses the SHA256, Scrypt, or X11 algoruthms).

 The 480 looks like a VERY GOOD option for mining Ethereum with, among other usages.

You are right. The 480 has some potential to mine the Ethereum. Although the hash rate is lower, it save more power than 390.

You cannot mine litecoin directly to earn 1 litecoin per day.
