I was wondering why the R9 390x was not a topic of interest to most miners... All the time I see people applauding the 480, 370, 290, etc...
The reason why I am asking is because my latest ETH rigs setup consists of 8 x 390x and 7x 390 cards and they are all performing very well with an average hashrate of 33mh/s for the 390x and ~31mh/s for the 390 and max-load temperature ranges 75-82 celsius. (Mainly differing due to some air flow issues I need to work on)
I get the 390 cards brand new for as low as $250 and the 390x for ~$320 which is why I am considering the 390 as the best investment.
My electricity prices are around 4cents/kw.
Am I missing something? Isn't the 390 card the best at mining most algorithms without the need of any bios edits?
Let me know your thoughts.
