fucking pieces of shit FUCKING CRYPTO MINERS I KNOW YOU ARE THE ONES DOING THIS SHIT
why is crypto coins so fucking cancerous, why can't they get a normal job? why isn't the government shoving a gun in their mouth and telling them to stop?
1070ti and v56 actually trade blows 1070ti is a shit card just buy a 1080 at that point baseline v56 can be undervolted/overclocked to each 1080 levels anyway.

undervolted v56 still has issues with heat and power consumption though

My brother purchased two reference 290x for about £100 each before the cryptowars. While the crossfire setup didn't work out for him, (compatibility issues with games all over) it does mean we just have a 290x sitting around under a bed in a cardboard box, for spare.

Some coins actively try to prevent ASIC mining. See Monero and Ethereum.
