Re: Best GPU's For Mining?

The best gpu for scrypt mining is the Asus strix r7 370 4gb. This bad boy is power efficient. It draws 110w and gives you 15mh (17mh OC) of ethereum mining. Right now you can get them with a $30rebate brand new. https://www.amazon.com/Radeon-Overclocked-256-bit-DisplayPort-Graphics/dp/B00ZQ3QVJK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1471500653&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+strix+4gb&linkCode=ll1&tag=technology304304-20&linkId=15ea6672c1c998b748dfe71d0d8ab041

I have 5 of these gpu´s in my rig. To power my rig I chose Evga 1000w Gold with 6 pcie vga cables.

Very important to get a real good power supply.

It is better to use the RX 470 to mine the Ethereum. The price is lower than the 480 and has similar mining performance.

I heard that Eliovp has modified the RX 480 BIOS and can mine the Ethereum at over 31 MH/s. But he has not made one for 470 yet.

Some people has made some BIOS mod for the 470. It seems the 470 can achieve similar results as the 480.

there are modes for the 480x also which will give you more hashes if care fully done. the price difference matters after an extend!!!

Do you mean if both are mod to the maximum, the RX 480 is still better than the 470? If that is the case, I will buy the 480.

yeah that's correct , also it a bit tricky for the mod to implement , but once you get it working it is much better than 470..head down to the forum post about 480x

If that is the case, I will buy some RX 480. 480 is better for other algorithms as well as it has more cores and it can be mine more than you're expecting you need a tricky mod there to implement did you try at Remote Desktop ? or VPS ?
