normal https://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/R9280XDC23GD5V2/#specifications

OC edition https://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/R9280XDC2T3GD5V2/#specifications

i have 2 OC edition gtx 560 ti in SLI but i swear OC editions wear our faster, what are your thoughts am i right on OC editions having less life expectancy ??

one of my two current cards is a piece of shit, the primary one is fucked and if i dont run it in SLI my browser will freeze or ill get blue screen just having the #0 card running, thought about pulling it out and only having the #1 card in my computer but when i run SLI nothing wrong happens at all..

idk why one ended up being dysfunctional after 2 years but whatever

I notice in user reviews they tend to not last as long a lot of times. You could always underclock them i guess then put steveyos on your ignore list

well then don't even bother with SLI, just run one of the cards

i have gtx 480 and everything looks fine, all the performance problems i had before are now gone because i upgraded from a shitty core 2 duo (2.4ghz) to an eight core 8350 vishera (4.0ghz) and twice as much ram as before (16gb)

didn't need to do anything about my video card except move it to the new computer

I haven't had a problem or any slowdown and don't even remember what loading screens look like so in my opinion it wasn't a waste of money, and it's not too bad since again everything maxed with no loading times

if you're not into max graphics and no loading times by all means don't listen to me

max graphics while constantly shadow recording in 1080p yup wasn't worth it at all oh wait it actually was

if price difference is only a few dollars grab the higher spec version, the chip is simply one that was sorted @ the factory into a higher spec bin

but grab yourself 64 gig of calum-pro grade ram, if only to shut stevey the fuck up... it's worth it in the long run


hell the money you saved on soft drinks alone should make this a no brainer purchase

got a 1000 watt power supply, decided to get a r9 290x 3gb and run it in one slot, for mining, litecoins, or a variant, and then using my non fucked up GTX 560 ti to play vidya, and then mine when im sleeping etc

if you're not into max graphics and no loading times by all means don't listen to me
the latest ATI card is better than the titan and costs less you fucking retard

estimates of $400 a month just for keeping that gpu on mining litecoins, and the elec cost will be less than $30

stablecoin is only available at cryptsy.com for now, there are other site owners showing interest in buying this coin,
just two weeks ago it was worth 1 cent per coin now its worth a few over 20 cents per coin,
some nerd whos been watching it for ages is speculating its modest to think it will hit 1 dollar in a year, and not craZY to say it may hit 5 dollars in a year

if youre mining you stay the fuck away from peercoin,bitcoin,namecoin and a few others, some were premined(aka the dev didnt tell anyone about it until he mined heaps)

so their difficulty isb ullshit

others have just been mined the FUCK outta.

the only coin ive found to be more profitable than stbalecoin are tagcoins, since theyre worth like almost $2 and you make 10 a day
