Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred GPU Miner v4.5 (Windows/Linux)
I'm surprised that no one is taking pre-orders for them yet.
Same here. I'm kind of in a "Catch 22" situation. I was about to purchase 100 x MSI 390 GPU's until I heard last night about the AMD RX 480 with 14nm chips coming out June 29th.
Especially, since no one is taking pre-orders on them, I'm wondering if there will be limited quantities that will limit retailers to 5 GPU's per customer at first?
meh I think 390's are a good deal when its a good sale price, even with the 480 coming out. Depends on your electric setup. I'm waiting for 480 too, but if I can get some cheap 390s...I'll get those too
although im not buying 100 god damn lol, so far my XFX 390s are running over 33mhs, good temps, and seems perfectly fine.Totally agree! I might pick up some if I can find them for $250 or less per unit. However, I'm not buying a lot of them. There are too many pro's to wait for the 480's I cannot think of any con's for the 480's except for having to wait and not knowing if we can mine with them out of the box (software/drivers).
Hell, I'm getting 186 units of RX 480's since they consume less power than the 390's. I only hope I can find that many someone will sell at $199 each when they are available. However, the other concern I have as well is if they will be sold in limited quantities only in the beginning. If that is the case, I'll have to wait potentially 30 to 90 days longer to get the units I want.
It's the power savings that got me hooked. I can run twice as many for the same price!!
By the time you get the new card, you will mine the same amount with the same price as the difficulty will be much higher.
