Seems to be fixed now. I was having issues trying to read posts in the “Home / Feathercoin Discussion” sub forum.
Thanks!

Hello. Seems I have a permissions bug.

Guess it all depends what you want to do with them.
I’m in doubt AMD will release a “big die” card, we would have heard some sort of rumor, I think AMD is focusing on market share right now.
I’m all for a “big die” gpu, don’t get me wrong, it just isn’t how they do things.

Rumors are HD 9970/R9 D970, w.e they are going to call it will be on par with Titan, then more increase in performance with software tweaks.
Last summer they stated they were focusing on performance through drivers, that is why we didnt see a traditional yearly new gpu release.
I’m willing to bet some FTC they are going to stick with that route.

That would be nice, unfortunately the HD9k series will still be manufactured on 28nm, maybe we’ll see 20nm in late 2015/early 2016.
However the 28nm node is extremely mature and depending on the tweaks made to the architecture we should see a slight decrease in power consumption, the cards will still have the same tdp as the 7970 though.

20nm is where we will see much bigger reduction in power consumption :D
Honestly am thinking of holding off upgrading till 20nm, have to try to fight the upgrade itch.

The Hd8k series was an OEM rebrand of the HD7k series, not for retail, same specs as HD7k series.

HD 9k series “Volcanic islands” or what were interested in, is “hawaii” (HD9970/R9 D970/w.e top of the line is going to be called) are rumored to have 2560 SP, a core clock of around 1GHZ, 3GB of memory running at 6000MHZ effective.

Expect to see 15-30% increase in performance over an HD7970.

I would not expect 1MH off one card.
720MH’s(average) with an increase of 25% = 900 MH’s

we need a like button for posts :P

Now we wait for the difficulty target calc change. ;)
