i agree to a point, i was in high hopes of it being a great mining card, i was planning to pick up a few.. but its looking more and more to be an average card that is already available on the market.. just maybe a little better at things like zcash and eth due to the special memory... Most gpu miners run between 65-75% tdp, so the tdp watts really do make a difference especially if its not really all that more powerful than a fury x
