Hi,
I was using claymore's miner under linux before. Now I had to rebuild my rig again.
Now I'm thinking about OS change. Should I install windows? or continue with linux? if windows, which windows? windows 7 or windows 10?

not sure 580 will change things significantly in performance per watt. More likely next generation Vega will though. 580 cards are the same polaris chip so until Vega we won't see anyting spectacular.

plus a lot of challenging. ETH from the land have increased . Or earnings fell to our lot . maybe the new version comes out .

Just wondering what the performance difference between a 4GB and an 8GB is on the Radeon RX480?
I have a number of sapphire RX480 8GB and they hash around 300
I bought 1 Asus Dual X to try out also 8GB but it is crap@ 280 hash
Looking to try a 4GB RX480 from Gigabyte - any ideas ?
I got a PowerColor RX480 8GB, going to add that to my HD7950. Not sure if I can get 300 sol/s with it though. You need the newer driver for the RX 480 and old driver for 7950. that's incorrect. 7950 and rx480 work fine with latest driver. 7870, 7750, 7850, all work fine with the same 16.10.1 WQHL driver that works well with the RX 470. 12.4 on the other hand doesn't seem to like the 7870 much - lotta "driver reset" issues even with -i 1 on a card at stock clocks - but gets along fine on my RX 470s (about 270h/s with stock 4GB cards and a VERY minimal overclock) and the 7750s I've tried it on so far. out of curiosity, what kind of hashrate are you getting on the 7750s?

If I mod the Bios on my rx470 I no the hashrates will be higher for Eth but does it hurt or help zec mining

I heard Vega 10 Gpu will be around 600$
Is 600 H/s realistic for Vega 10?...of course after some claymore tuning
Thinking about building 2 vega 10 6 gpu rigs

More likely next generation Vega will though. 580 cards are the same polaris chip so until Vega we won't see anyting spectacular. It is a swap from LPE to LPP, chips based on this process will purportedly deliver more processing power in a smaller footprint while sipping less power at the same time. So the 580 will be more power efficient than the current 480 and slightly faster. I'm waiting on a bios to see if it will be compatible with the 480 but I doubt it will be.

It's strange... But on my Pitcairn and Tahiti cards memory OC impoves the speed of zec mining and nothing chahges on eth...

FYI you can get the Fury at $230 that give you 470 sols @ 250 watts. That's 5650 Sols total on a total investment of $2700. The monthly profit is $825 giving you a 3 month ROI, The Vega at $500 a piece will give you an ROI in 8 month.

About the same although the rx480 is better on power consumption. This is based on advertised sale prices in the US RX480: 330 sols for $170 = $.51/sol ..... 660 sols @ 250 watts = 2.64 sols/watt Fury: 470 sols for $230 = $.48/sol ...... 470 sols @ 250 watts = 1.88 sols/watt I heard you can undervolt the fury by 100 mv and the consumption goes down to 175 watts and the rx480 down to 100 watts, but haven't tried it on either

Thats right but if you have to pay for energy then fury is not the best card Vega 10 should at least give 3- 3.5 H/s/watt And of course future speed improvements for Vega cards with hbm2 is another point.

Furys just went out-of stock in Poland and the ones that are available in other countries are like $450+, its crazy. Just 3 weeks ago you could buy one for $350. You have interesting prices there

I'm thinking about selling my 280x cards and buy new ones for better power consumption. Which is better? AMD RX 480 or Nvidia GTX 1070?
I am paying too much for power and mining is just an hobby for me. I'll sell my 4x r9 280x cards and buy two RX480 or GTX 1070 and maybe add more cards later.

I'm running one r9 290x and two Fury's right know (also a hobbyist). They do use electricity and I am running them with stock bios and settings! What do you calculate your wattage savings to be by changing cards?

What do you calculate your wattage savings to be by changing cards? I user whattomine.com to calculate cards. 3x r9 280x GPUs making 870 H/s and using 690 Watts. 3x rx480 GPUs making 870 H/s and using 360 Watts. 2x Nvidia GTX 1070 making 840 H/s and using 240 Watts. GTX 1070 seems more power efficient. But they are two times expensive. I think I'd better buy rx480 GPUs. And I can sell my r9 280x GPUs one by one and buy the rx480 GPUs one by one, so I'll not have to spend from my pocket. Are the rx480s and r9 280x runs together in a rig? currently I have one r9 270 and 3 r9 280x running in one rig.

Yea the price and performance for the cost is amazing. I have 4 of these currently and hoping to gradually convert over. What are you getting out of it for hashing? Mine are doing around 270. Can't seem to make much by way of improvement to that.
