Hi.
Have anybody here tried mining with AMD`s 8XXX series OEM GPU`s? I`m just curious about the hashrate. If there is ANY improvments at all?

8xxx are just re-branded 7xxx cards. You want to wait for the 9xxx cards, which are going to be faster. They're supposed to have a higher core count, wider memory bandwidth, and faster clocks all around, which looks like a recipe for some serious alt-coin mining.

7xxx prices being cut so you have to take into account prices vs performance improvements. we are waiting for specs still i believe

That is what i`ve heard also. I also read that the releasedate of the 9xxx series is in late september. I doubt it will be a major gamechanger, but i`m still kinda looking forward to it.

Ok, but you get the same result when you bought them at this time? (trading Profit)
I mean a mining Profit is when you mine them and sell on same hour/day you got the coins.
