Apparently in a few months the difficulty will increase, making 4GB Vram cards useless for miners. Get ready for great pricing from miners in full on damage control mode.
Remember to buy new fans as the used ones will be totally fucked.

That doesn't solve anything. Why would anyone upgrade to a 4GB card in 2017? It's already oudated.

You can get a used GTX 980 Ti on ebay for like, 350. It's about the same performance.

If you can't afford a new 8gb card there is literally nothing wring with getting a 4gb. Beggars can't be choosers.

Also GPU power is way more important than VRAM.

Got a 4GB RX470 for 175. upgraded from a GTX 670 2GB.

Double the performance and VRAM at such a low price is pretty great. Runs The Witcher at 60 fps maxxed on a 2560 x 1080 screen.

Although i'm running a 1600X CPU as well so that may add up.

Wrong. Miners undervolt and underclock their cards to reduce power consumption while maintaining the same performance.
>>
>>61079210
Mining cards can be in better condition than gaming-only used cards. If the miner is smart about it, they'll undervolt and underclock the card in a way to lose minimal performance but at the same time keep the card cool and without using the fans at max.
My R9 390 can pull 27.5MH/s at 70ºC and fans at 60%. Room temperature of about 30ºC, it's really hot in here. A lot of people can do even less heat at lower fan speeds.

Running the card like this 24/7 is far more healthy than Timmy running his pro-MLG overclock at +50 power limit and +200mV for 2 extra FPS. Not to mention that while mining, the GPU is always at a stable temperature and fan speed, while during gaming, it can easily spike over 20ºC just during load screens, which is far more damaging to the card than just running at acceptable temperatures 24/7.

>>61079321
Vega seems to be power hungry from the latest rumors. If it's using 2x more energy and not getting 2x more performance, it'll be DOA for mining. Polaris is efficient as fuck at mining, and Pascal is even better (except more expensive initially). Vega needs to be all that or better to be worth it. And it seems like it won't be efficient at all for starters, we'll have to see where it stands on performance. Good chance that Polaris will still be king for that.

Show me a single instance of a GPU breaking down when it was being used downclocked and underlocked.

>>
>>61082507
Because manufacturers aren't stupid, they know as soon as the market crashes demand is going to go through the FLOOR. Who the hell is going to buy a new GPU when used 1080 Ti will be $500 on ebay from a miner.
>>
>>61082396
Yes. At first everyone was buying rx470/480 and 570/580 since those were the most cost efficient GPUs for mining, but then after those cards got all bought out people switched to 1070 since AMD prices went up to ridiculous levels (if they were available at all that is). In the end all prices went up and if you want to upgrade or buy new GPU right now you are in deep shit.
ETH price has been dropping hard lately, if it won't bounce back this whole craze could be slowing down some.

They're made to work just fine for years at stock clocks, that's why they're stock. Overclocking always reduces life expectancy, no exceptions.
Just using it normally for playing at stock isn't enough to break one down, maybe after like 6 or 8 years it'll start showing signs of dying. If you OC'd it heavily, this number would be heavily reduced. Same goes for mining. If you're mining at stock clocks, you can expect the life expectancy to be around the same as if you were using it to play. The difference is that mining is as if you were playing 24/7 with it. So those 6-8 years turn into 1-2 years. That's where downclocking/undervolting come into play. Doing those will drastically reduce the wear. On a non-faulty unit, you could probably mine with it under those circumstances for years before it even starts showing signs of slowing down.
Any miner worth shit is going to do this to his cards. Doesn't matter if you're Average Joe from the corner with a single GPU making 3$ a day, or if you're Ling Long from China with 900 rigs going. If you want them to keep pumping and issue free, you downclock/undervolt for mining, period.
>>

>Remember to buy new fans as the used ones will be totally fucked.
Nah, they'll be fine. Even if they were run 24/7 at full speed for months, they are still rated for much longer.

I forgot, it's about $535 if you buy it on Boleto. To my foreign friends, this is basically a bill emitted by the seller that you pay in a bank. They usually give it a discount because it has less associated taxes.
So if you buy via credit card, it's about $630, and you can pay it in up to 12 installments, no interest added. If you buy it via debit card, $630, single installment. If you pay by boleto, single installment, $535.

Yeah I know, I should sell them. Really anyone who didn't buy into the 480 when they dropped through the floor in prior to the 580 launch is fucked right now. They were so cheap, like barely more expensive than that useless piece of shit the 1050ti.

Generally the clockspeed of the core doesnt actually matter except in cases of maxing out the hardware.

Keeping the voltage above safe limits, and especially OCing the memory, is what kills cards faster. Most memory OCd units (and I mean to the wire or within a few mhz of max stability) usually kills a card within 24 months.

>>
>>61084525
The entire network is essentially single threaded. A true scalable distributed system increases it's capacity/processing power the more nodes.

Buttcoins and shitcoins on the other hand, it doesn't do anything if you increase the amount of nodes. The network would be much more efficient if it was just one computer on a server somewhere instead of the wasteful abomination that it is now and don't get me started about mining.

There are proposals to improve scalability but they either significantly lower the security of the network in a way that would make it easy for people to steal coins or they are hacks that don't really work in the real world.

No he isn't. Leaving your PC on all day vs turning it off and on repeatedly every day is far more damaging. Especially when your PC is at idle (I.E low fan speed) for most of the day.

Obviously if you let it cake with dust while it's on 24/7 you're going to have a problem eventually, but if you turn it off every so often to clean you will virtually have no issues.

>>
>>61085457
Yeah but for most GPUs, they have the fans off for even a long period. Let's say people who live in northern cold climates, where it's cold all the time, the GPU would be cool mostly all the time and not have to turn the fans on to cool it down. It's almost never a constant on and off, so the fans would be not spinning for a longer chunk of their time, preventing more wear and tear.

Not sure, but the Asus 1050 Phoenix card is $140 while the 1060 is $400+. I'd rather use this for a year, and upgrade to something better, than to buy a 1070.

6870 price point went up during bitcoin boom. You could sell them for the price they came out new due to mining performance. Same with 5970 which was a top tier mining card at the time.

>low test
I think balding would be accelerated by high test. Androgenic alopecia is caused by dihydrotestosterone attacking the hair follicles. DHT is made from testosterone that is converted to DHT via alpha-5-reductase. More test may allow more to be converted to the baldness causing DHT,

2 days ago I sold my r9 280x for 240$ to a miner

I bought my r9 280x FOUR years ago USED for 120$. This card was probably used for mining as well before I had it. This was after the first mining boom that died down.
>>
>>61085723
>5970 which was a top tier mining card at the time.
not really, too hot, too much power req since it was a dual gpu card.

>6870 price went up during bitcoin boom
not really, bitcoin was barely worth anything, and when it started to be worth a few dozen dollars per coin ppl started going crazy for mining with custom machines which drove bitcoin to worthless value so fast the 6870 never really went up in price.

then when everyone bailed and it became near impossible to mine bitcoin on anything but tens of thousands of dollars worth components the price began to skyrocket as if someone was manipulating it..

Nah, this isn't actually 100% true. DHT only plays a smaller role in balding than was though. The main cause is chronic inflammation of the hair follicles, which is caused by an number of factors including high DHT levels. Diet plays a large role in balding. Which is why so many fatties have thinning hair.
>>
nice prices you've got there
1080 is a bargain compared to these overpriced cards
>>
>>61087319
Its why i specifically mentioned androgenic alopecia [pattern baldness], as opposed to hair loss in general. Diet can modulate androgen levels. Theres also a few items in the diet that can actually have some inhibiting effects on alpha-5-reductase.

Fatties often have diabeetus related hair loss. fatties often have pre-beetus and don't even know it. (especially since in the US cheapo food/sodas made from unhealthy subsidized crops are the kind of things that can give people diabeetes. And this poor food is eaten by poor people without healthcare, so they aren't getting routine blood tests) Stress, and hypothyroidism among other things from beetus can cause hair loss.

Diet should play a big role in general because it correlates so much with well being. Diet can be related to stress and stress is related to hair loss. Also bad diet leads to inflamation and then nohair.

You would be up against people who buy dedicated mining machines full of 1070/1080 cards that fill a whole room. Short answer is no. Just enjoy your games.

The Good
This makes the video card companies a lot of money for more development, better cards, and (possibly) cheaper cards in the future.

The Bad
If you wanted to buy one for your new/upgraded rig, you're fucked.

So if the miner is an idiot and didn't properly maintain the GPU, it's possible it's going to be worse off? You have no way of knowing how a miner handled the card when he returned it. It really doesn't seem worth the risk.

You're right, it can be done in hardware with an FPGA or an ASIC.

Why short answer no
1060 can probably do near 3$ a day
He has free electric why not
Just when he's asleep or at work leave it running

maybe you should have bought a door instead of putting a towel over the entrance,
also do you want to trip and break your shit, you don't just leave wires splayed out in the middle of floor anon
>>
>>61097566
The one thing biz has a point on is, if you plan to start a currency Don't plaster your face all over it because shit like this will happen, let's trust this 22 year old with my millions.

>>61101163
>trip and break your shit
I never go in that room nowadays
Also, why would I buy a door for a shitty apartment I'm going to move out of?
>>
>>61078995
I really wanted to get a GTX 1070 (maybe a 1080 since the price dropped before this happened), now I have to use eBay. Fuck you, miners.

Wasn't that the starting price?

>>61101193
I'm probably going to switch to wire racks when I scale up
>>
>>61101190
Ok you have a good point about the door, but seriously watch the wire management, I'm sure you spent some money on those cards it would suck it you tripped on a loose wire and broke something, or knocked the server over
>>
>>61095343
isn't having real virtual money enough?
why do we have to invent virtual fake money? and so many of them? for what purpose?
let it end! One currency to rule them all! fuck exchanges! I want to live in "credits" society.

imagine all of those mad miners with their shitty gpu's

>>61085597
People in Cold climates don't have AC. My room is 30° with only a 1080. It was worse with my 35% overclocked 7970.

Had a 470 that I sold, jesus the fucking AMD cards are unbearable to have during the summer. I'm also thinking of the 1060 6gb or the 580 but unsure if I want to live in a furnace for the next few monts w the rx.

>>61100829

Yet you continue to provide absolutely no proof. Did I mention I am actually a gorillionaire? Proof you say? Why would I lie?
>>
>>61079234
Rx 480 8gb clocked at 1340 here. Witcher 3 runs 60 to 48 fps so obviously you are lying.
