Hi,

I recently started mining Ethereum with one GPU RX 580 Sapphire nitro 8gb, and it works good on 31 mh/s.
I am planing to buy 5 GPUs more for mining but I don't know which GPU I will buy. So I have two questions:

1. What is the best alternative when Ethereum mining ends?

2. What GPU is better than RX 580 Sapphire nitro 8gb so I can use it on Ethereum mining now and on alternatives when Ethereum mining ends?

1. you can mine another Ethash algorithm like ETC

2. can use NVIDIA 1070ti or 1080ti.

whether you're serious about purchasing a GPU for now, I think it's not the right time.

For you the best alternative is Ethereum Clasic.

These cards are expensive 1080ti is 250% of RX 580 and 1070ti is 170% of RX 580.
So is it better to buy one another RX 580 for now?

no. not the best alternative but this coin still gives me a profitable. in fact, if I mine never stick to one coin, sometimes I mine in Ethash algo, XMR as long as it's profitable.

So is it better to buy one another RX 580 for now?
actually, i have 8x RX580 8GB but for now, i suggest you don't buy graphics card unless you don't care about ROI and have no problem with electricity.

Right now, Cryptonight (heavy/lite)/v7) algos are very profitable on AMDs if you can locate the right coins. 

$LOKI has been very profitable for me since their launch May 3rd. The difficulty is starting to catch up. But others: Solace, Ombre, Haven, etc.

SRBminer offers some good hashrate for those algos
