AMD and Nvidia started getting into the cryptocurrency world with releasing dedicated GPUs for mining.
Now AMD went futher - made a beta driver thats supossed to make mining more efficent.
Worth noting thats its currently Windows only.
The best results for this driver are on Ethereum currently.
From what ive read online performance on HashNice and Minergate also raises but try yourself and leave info in comments.
AMD Stocks
Since all those GPU mineable coins soared stocks of Nvidia and AMD are going good. You cna trade them on forex sites but also a fully anonymous forex that pays BTC - SimpleFX.

Will this mean that current mining contracts will reap even fewer benefits, as we're renting miners that are soon much slower than the new miners? I've seen a tremendous difficulty increase in Dash, I hope it won't get much lower...

Thanks for this information. I have to examine this further since I still use a multi-unit GPU 7950's on a Windows 10 machine and NiceHash. I would be curious to see the improvements even if it is minimal.

I've been getting 21+ Mh/s from my AMD RX 580 4GB card running DaggerHashimoto with NiceHash. Would be nice to bump that up a little. It's generating about $1.50 a day but uses about 118 Watts for the card alone so thats maybe 50 cents a day for electricity and about a dollar profit.

Is your 580 the 4 GB or 8? Mine is 4, if that matters.
Are you saying your 580 is doing both ETH and DCR at the same time? If so, how do I find the setting to do that too?

4GB (Saphire Nitro+). Use Claymore miner, it can mine some DCR without affecting ETH rates (i have similar on my 480 on windows but there i overclock) . Also i found with geth my cpu usage was high (on both linux and windows it seemed to chew up 1/2 core per gpu. so 4 gpus kept my 2 core cpu at nearly 100% until i switched miners. (with Claymore it went down to 5%. ).

Sucks about the actual stats not being in the 70-100 MH/s range. A friend mentioned maybe there will be another update to increase the MH/s. Don't get me wrong though, $399 for a card that get's 36MH/s is nice and I'd like to pick one up if I can find one.

Yes, but at 350+ watts for a single card you do have to factor in power costs.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

This is great for people looking to mine with AMD cards, but I'm still concerned about Vega's wattage. Sure, they have higher hash rates than the Nvidia cards, but at the higher wattage the profit margin between your mining income and your electric bill could quickly close as difficulties increase and/or coin values decrease. I haven't really looked into heat output, but higher wattage cards often produce more heat than lower wattage cards.
At least for my individual situation, where heat and wattage are important, I'm really hoping to see an answer from Nvidia that allows similar hashrates closer to the lower TDP of something like a GTX 1070 or GTX 1080. Otherwise, I'll be looking forward to AMD's 2018 offerings and hoping they prove to be more efficient than Vega 64 and Vega 56.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

This is always true. The power input is converted entirely to heat. More power in (higher Wattage) = more heat out.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
I knew that, and probably could've chosen my words better. Higher wattage cards with better coolers can still run at equal (or lower) temperatures than lower wattage cards with weaker coolers, especially in some niche situations like tight cases or poor ventilation. This is what I was trying to allude to with the word "often" rather than "always." Perhaps I should've said that higher wattage cards will produce more heat, and the coolers may or may not do a good job at compensating adequately for every situation.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Keep in mind though a better "cooler" isn't really cooling. It's just better at dispersing heat away from your GPU and into the room. So high wattage will still affect the ambient temperature of the room they are in. The room I keep my mining rig in is always a few degrees warmer than the rest of the house.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
This is also a good point to clarify. A higher wattage card will surely contribute to higher ambient temperatures. However, like you said, a dedicated mining rig can be put in another room.
As someone that mines on my main productivity/gaming rig when I'm not using it, I'm more concerned about package temperatures and heat soaking into other components. For example, a lot of modern motherboards have M.2 slots for solid state storage lined up behind where a dual slot graphics card might go. A cooler letting heat stick on the GPU or pushing it toward the SSD might affect the longevity of the SSD, but a cooler pushing heat out the back of the case or elsewhere in the case but away from the motherboard might be better for your other components. In this way, a cooler that disperses more heat into the room can be better for the components adjacent to the GPU.

The power consumption is the main problem with the RX Vega cards. That's why the miners have to look carefully before buying them. These cards have a pretty good hashrate, but the power consumption is quite concerning...

My RX580 running custom Hynix BIOS hashes way faster than their driver....or at least compared to those numbers in the graphic.
I get a return from ethOS as 28-29 per unit, but the true effective hashrate is closer to 31.
Link to the firmware for those who want to try it. I am not responsible for any issues you may have.
DO NOT USE THIS FIRMWARE IF YOU ARE NOT USING A CARD WITH HYNIX MEMORY
Main article link: http://1stminingrig.com/best-bios-rom-sapphire-nitro-rx-580-8gb-oc-hynix-memory-30-mhs
BIOS link: https://mega.nz/#!ZxQEwCDC!vSgnjdHRE0rpk7L8I95WQXPRkrT0lbrTDOcn6iQWRoI
Version 2 (I found no difference): https://mega.nz/#!R0gCkajK!OAp3e4YrXowsd-IWgAphRQdBAKEMZuO6SxZwu0U2mlk
Read the article if you do not know how to safely flash the card BIOS. Hope that helps anyone stuck in the 20-22 hash range. Happy Mining/Trading/Decentralizing!
Edit: Those hash rates are while dual mining SIA with less than 1 Mh lost on the Eth mining.

The beta driver is supposed to fix the memory caching issue that AMD had which was causing performance issues with lager DAG sizes (>3GB).
Also keep in mind the power consumption of the GPUs in comparison to the hash rate. As the difficulty continues to increase, the power efficiency can be the difference between being profitable and losing money.

HA! At what exactly? Definitely not mining, I run multiple rigs with different chips....Intel's only advantage in GPU mining is their own, when they profit off of people buying extremely overpriced chips that are completely unnecessary in the GPU mining world. Custom AMD cards/drivers hash faster, even when dual mining. Of course, I am referring to cards that retail for less than $900.
