RE: AMD's Radeon RX Vega 64 might just be a miner's dream
Yes, AMD's marketing is squarely aimed at gamers. They are going out of their way to say that "our customers are gamers", "RX Vega is all about gaming" etc. etc. They even admitted to delaying the launch from Q2 so gamers had enough stock. They are also limiting it to one card per buyer.
All of that also implicitly admits that the product will be killer for mining.
Well yeah but it can also not be the best and i think one of the vegas consumes almost 400 Watts so yeah it is unpredictable what we will see from these but AMD always packs a punch
The TDP for Vega 64 is 295W, but we know that this is outside the efficiency range. There's actually a Vega Nano coming, which is rumoured to be only 150W-180W. Same specs as Vega 64, just lower clock speeds. But not that much lower.
Hmmm a nano version would be interesting less power consumption less heat output as long as the hashrates are stable might be the most wise choice
Hi @liberosist I've published a post about you, check it out if you can, thanks.
