Show me the numbers for how AMD polaris has the best price performance.


I bought a Sapphire RX570 4G gaming for 130€ brand new in january. It's got Samsung memory, can hold 2100MHz mem speed and gets 31-31.5MH/s mining ETASH
Mining CN Heavy: 915H/s
CN turtle: 8500H/s
CN Waltz: 1300-1320H/s

Any GTX1660Ti is twice more expensive where I live.

I'm not trying other algorithms, because I mostly want to mine privacy based coins.
I've got 14 RX570's sitting around. Turned them off several months ago, and haven't put them back to work. At $0.16 per kWh, whatever I mine currently makes no money so I just haven't bothered. At this stage, if I could be @rsed, I'd sell them off for $50 each. They paid for themselves several times over.

Still mining with my little 4 RX574 rig, I can pay the electricity bill (same 0.16$ per KW/h) and when price will rise again the coin should value much more than the cost of electricity.

If you want to mine CN variants AMD is significantly more effective.

However with ETH, if you are betting on an increase in price: I believe you would be better off buying ETH directly right now.
