Most Critical Review

Back shield plate did not fit

BIOSTAR A880GZ AM3+ AMD 880G + SB850 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
BIOSTAR A880GZ AM3+ AMD 880G + SB850 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Sata6 for my intel SSD ! Middle of the road board.

Cons: I bought the open box, but everything looked un-open. The back plate does not fit the motherboard. First I though it was the sound connector holes that there off by a few mm, but when I put in the case it's the sound connector that is correct and all the rest of the connectors that are off by a few mm. I cut the left part of the shield off. loosen the screws on dvi conector, vga connector is riveted so it come off and then I could jam the shield in.

Tiny little boot drive

Pros: if you need something small for your mining rig, on-board red led shows hd active.

Cons: none really

great little miner that could

ASUS Radeon RX 560 4GB EVO OC Edition GDDR5 DP HDMI DVI AMD Graphics Card (RX560-O4G-EVO)
ASUS Radeon RX 560 4GB EVO OC Edition GDDR5 DP HDMI DVI AMD Graphics Card (RX560-O4G-EVO)

Pros: 12.85mhs stock bios and blockchain beta driver, I just jacked mem clock up to 1950, stable for 12hrs. Mem strapping could possible get it to 14.8 ??

Cons: Only have 896 streamers and not 1024 like some other full fledge 560's

Overall Review: no 6pin power connector, it must be that with 896 vs 1024 you don't need it.

mining king

Sapphire Radeon NITRO+ RX 580 4GB GDDR5 PCI-E Dual HDMI / DVI-D / Dual DP w/ Backplate (UEFI)

Pros: 30.4 MH using Anoraks bios: Sapphire RX 580 Nitro (plus) 4GB Hynix Elpida Mod ETH.rom Use trixx to undervolt another 0.5v and you get 120watt at the wall with 94% PSU You need to use AMD blockchain beta Aug23 driver.

Cons: The last one I got reported Hynix but did not work at all with above bios mod, stock game bios got 23MH used Polariseditor 1.6.7 use oneclick timing and then in afterburner 1150 2100 and I'm back at 30.44MH

good and fast deal, when shipped from USA

Pros: These are the fully populated version 8 boards, not a knock off as they look 100% the same I got somewhere else.

Cons: The little pcb that goes in pcie slot had a solder-short on two adjacent through-hole reflow pin, drove me crazy to why gfx card and next one to it don't recognize by device manager, next day I apply some flux and 1 sec with soldering iron and it now works just fine.
