What software do you use to mine? I'm keen to try my hand at mining alt coins.
Edit - question 1 answered I read your signature
Also, is it feasible/possible to slap one or two of those into a machine which currently acts as a home server and keep its current function and just use the Gpu to mine?
Okay amd is smOS
smOS is a dedicated linux you lose the pc for other stuff
nvidia is
EMBF_ in a windows 7 pro box . If you mine zec the pc can do other shit.
the better the cpu and 2 sticks of 8gb or more ram in the server you can run the nvidia in the background.
