Just wondering if miners still feel this card is worth putting money into this late in its life cycle. I am looking for opinions so let me know please.


Its not worth it, especially because its this late in the mining life cycle.

That card will barely even make a dollar after electricity costs. And thats not to mention the upcoming ETH E3 ASICs that are about to be delivered by bitmain next week. Oh and lets not forget the fact that ETH is switching to POS real soon as well. There are so many reasons not to buy mining hardware right now..

Can't it be used to mine some other altcoin like XMR? How about the newer coin today like the fork EINC?

I think, I have recently been planing to mine altcoins which I have bought two GPUs for a rig that I have been planing for months already. Now that we have learned ETH is turning POS then the rest much have something in mine which coin to mine after. You think ETC or the EINC will be good?
