Where are you shopping? My R9 270X 4 GB (got it mainly for gaming) was $230.... Now they have gone up to $300+

I never said you can find them always @ 200$. But when you can they are good buys

Anyone mining with the 750ti for their hash/watt benefits? The problem is that their hash rate is low that you need to build multiple 750ti boxes just to hash the same as a couple 280x.

Local microcenter just started showing stock. Not interested at $200 each.

They also just went up to $400 on the 280x that was $329


The higher end nvidia cards are going to be the ones to watch. 750ti ($150 msrp) just shows that they will be a legit competitor this generation.

Stats for mining isn't looking good so far. 0.005-0.006 BTC per megahash. I wonder if this will be norm going forward.
