I've got a few 2GB R7 370s running 1100/1625 with a custom BIOS and a GB R9 280x stock clocks/BIOS.  As of this month, 2GB is not enough memory to mine eth, and now that zec profitability is tanking, I decided to try etcexp:

edit: accidentally typed etc instead of exp.  Corrected.

I read that many of you guys can't mine ETH with 2gb cards but i still can and still do. Just restarted my miner so it could create new DAG and works fine. I don't know for how long but anyway...

If you can't mine ETH, you can't mine ETC either since its the same DAG epoch. Your issue is somewhere else.

Some of my 2gb GPUs work with ETH and some don't. No clue why.

My typo.  Meant to say EXP, not ETC.
