Title: Which rx580 choose
Post by: Abicidieffe on June 30, 2017, 05:42:55 PM
Hi guys,

Probably i'm gonna start soon the first amd rig but i'm still choosing the gpu and i'm a bit confused about the choice;

These are the gpu that i can take:

-ASUS STRIX RX580 8G-GA 8GB
-ASUS 8GB RX580-DUAL
or wait weeks for the sapphire (580 8GB)

Which i should choose and why?

Thanks

ps. i know that probably around september amd and nvidia will release dedicated hw :)

Either will have about the same hash rate after being modded. The STRIX is a better card with better cooling, possibly better VRAM and better resale value. If the price difference is not much, I would go with the STRIX card.

The fuck? You DO realize that RX cards will be crippled going forward right? Anyone, and I mean ANYONE that willingly buys AMD RX cards at this point is 100% shooting themselves in the foot.

Would you buy a car that in 6 months would go from 300 HP to 200 hp? I dont think so....

ps. AMD and Nvidia's board partners already released dedicated mining cards and NEwegg even had some recently.
