RE: Sapphire and ASUS to sell GPU cards made specially for cryptocurrency mining!
Great post!
Thanks for sharing the news, did not know they were going to release mining only cards. The issue lies a bit in that i personally like to buy cards, mine for a while and then build gaming computers to sell at the right conditions.
So while i originally can follow this equation:
mined coins profit for x time + resell value of components - original investment - electricity cost = ROI
With these cards an amendment needs to be made to the equation, namely:
mined coins profit for x time - original investment - electricity cost = ROI
The lack of a display output puts me off a bit for that reason only, but it would be interesting for perhaps building a 100% miner.
Your confidence needs to be high in the longevity of PoW systems though to invest in such a thing.
