Cryptocurrency mining has a big comeback driven by the huge rally in digital currencies in 2017. To benefit from this increase in demand for hardware, GPU Company Sapphire launched a new series of Graphic Cards, the very first of these specifically build GPUs for mining cryptocurrency.
Sapphire focuses on the production of computer hardware like GPUs - due to the increase in popularity and need for high-performance mining GPU's, the Company finally launched FIVE new graphics cards for crypto miners.
You can pre-order these cards NOW on OverclockersUK -
Prices:
Sapphire Radeon RX 470 Mining Edition 8GB (Samsung) for £300 ($385)
Sapphire Radeon RX 470 Mining Edition 8GB – £290 ($370)
Sapphire Radeon RX 470 Mining Edition 4GB (Samsung) – £260 ($335)
Sapphire Radeon RX 470 Mining Edition 4GB – £249 ($320)
Sapphire Radeon RX 560 Mining Edition 4GB – £170 ($220)
Its not just Sapphire and AMD that build mining GPUs for you - Nvidia has announced that it has started to produce graphic cards targeting the Cryptocurrency Mining Community like Ethereum, Zcash, Monero or Litecoin.
Let's hope that prices will go down and the efficiency will rise - because the today used GPU's are made mainly for GAMING, not mining - improving the algorithms, chips and drivers can dramatically increase Hashrate !
