I wouldn't say their engineering didn't screw up. 2 years after launching the Fury and they managed to ship a card that has less memory bandwidth than its predecessor while using HBM2.

Maybe AMD realised Vega is really bad, and boosted the mining performance so gamers won't be able to buy it and complain? And then AMD and the gamers can blame the miners for buying up all the cards.

Crazy thought: the rumoured 70MH/s is done on the 600W dual Vega. Considering the Vega FE does about 35MH/s, I'm a lot more likely to be right than wrong.

How big is your house? I have about 30 cards in the basement but have some airflow issues. The breaker room has all the amps I need but it doesnt have any windows. The other side of the basement has windows but the outlets on that side is on a single breaker.

This really depends on where you live. If you are in Ontario, Canada, electricity is a lot cheaper at night. If you are under industrial pricing then electricity is practically free at night.

Well even if you own stocks, what is posting online going to do? It's not like you can single handedly improve the public perception of the product one post at a time.

Actually I found some Vega FE numbers. 38MH/s for the Vega FE at -200 core clock while dual mining. The 300W power draw is probably because the author didn't know how to undervolt or set power target. If we are lucky the Vega 56 will do 35MH/s at 170W after undervolting. I'll definately get...

I don't think it will be that good for mining either way. Even if it is, good luck buying them in large quantities.

I might actually buy a Vega 56 and underclock it. I have a 75hz 1440p freesync monitor with RX 480 at 1200mhz right now. I really regret getting the 1440p as well as the 4k freesync monitor that I still have.

He's probably talking about the lack of 4GB cards at launch (almost none), and the overall lack of supply for the first month or so.

Current rating is more important than voltage rating. Even if kt doesn't specifically say 240V, it's usually rated for that. I think all power supply cables are rated 250V for example. So are rated for 300 V or even 380V.

Anybody can mine some coins and claim it's only used for gamimg.

If a game didn't support SLI and nVidia rolled out a driver that enabled SLI, then what's wrong with showing the gains? AMD advertise the best case gains for their drivers all the time.

He pretty much slaps an AIO on every single GPU he gets now.

Well you were intentionally vague about "We could talk about intel intentionally, illegally and unethically, holding back multicore gaming to allow their business model to cash out bigger rather than think of their customers" If holding back more cores is illegal, then what about AMD holding...
