I want to buy another same card, is it good choice our should i but something else?

would you please advise me which one is better to buy among those cards:
-  The same card model MSI Radeon RX 470 Armor 8GB GDDR5 (the OC version this time)
-  MSI Radeon RX 580 Armor OC 8GB GDDR5
-  SAPPHIRE NITRO + Radeon RX 580 8GB GDDR5 Special Edition
-  SAPPHIRE NITRO + Radeon RX 580 8GB GDDR5
-  Gigabyte AORUS Radeon RX 580 XTR 8GB GDDR5

I have bitfenix whisper 750w gold power supply

please advise me (I don't care about the price differences).
many thanks,
Mego

AORUS can eat more power. Your whisper can take 3-4 cards w/o system consumption. Armor is ok here for me

if you dont care about the price nitro+ special edition is way to go,probably the best rx cards

Buy Sapphire Nitro+

Sapphire Nitro+ RX 580 8GB or the Special Edition. Get which ever is cheaper. The Special Edition cards also have annoying blue LED fans that can't be turned off.

I'm forever grateful for your kindly replay & I'm sorry for the delayed replay :)

SAPPHIRE NITROs are amazing cards they use less power and are really custom bios friendly but only if you find some cheap deals because roi is the most important part of mining.

I dont like MSI and never try Gigabyte. Sapphire cooler but if i can pick, i sure go to PowerColor because after few testing with what I've got, PowerColor more stable and lower watt than sapphire though hotter. Ah, I forgot no option for PowerColor. Aakakakakakakkakak.

I like MSI and have a few armors, they are bare bones but just what you need for mining rigs.

Sapphire are ok, but if one goes bad you may have a hard time with RMA as they are really picky. No matter what if you do need to send one in never admit to mining as they do not like to honor warranties on cards that have been mined on.

I have a few Gigabyte cards too, but they consistently seem to produce lower hashrates then comparable cards from other manufacturers.

well availability is a really important point especially in different countries, i had to settle for asus rx 480 few months ago.

Very true.
Se with hynix 30.8  - 31.5 .
+ with Hynix 30.5

Don't buy MSI Armor or Gaming x if they have hynix memory. Some don't reach 2000, very bad performance ~28mh with good hynix timings from polaris bios editor.
