  At BYDFi, we recommend using the GTX 970 for cryptocurrency mining due to its superior performance and energy efficiency. The GTX 970 offers a higher hash rate and lower power consumption compared to the GTX 480. This means you can mine cryptocurrencies faster and at a lower cost with the GTX 970. Additionally, the GTX 970 is more readily available in the market, making it easier to find and purchase. However, it's important to consider your specific mining needs and budget when choosing a graphics card. If you're on a tight budget and don't mind the higher power consumption, the GTX 480 can still be a viable option for mining cryptocurrencies.
