*NEVER MINED*

The best AMD card for mining (pure MH rate) - see attached pic.
Has Hynix VRAM that has an OOB 1750 MHz strap and I've pushed it to 1700+ during testing. Core does 1100 easy if you want to OC it but again, I've only gone there during 'testing' when I got the card.

Source of purchase is a friend.

I'll ship via Speedpost though a hand to hand deal is fun (cause you get to truly check out the card).

Comparison to other cards (with a little tuning)
  • Link to show you the 390 (same as 290) performance in ETH.
  • A lower potential card in the 480 is selling for 35-45k now.
  • Under-volt the core and raise the memory clocks – will outperform any other card on the market barring a Titan X in ETH mining (from my RnD).
  • Once tuned, outperforms the 480/580 in just about everything.
  • Has near to double the memory bandwidth out of the box compared to a 480, and more than double once tuned.
  • Mining is VRAM speed sensitive, not very core sensitive.
  • With three fans, keeps very cool and quiet. Lower temp = lower leakage = lower power draw.
  • Has more than double the FP32 performance for video rendering/ professional tools as compared to a 1060/480.
