From the information we gathered so far from the 480 RX mining ,it seems that 470 RX could be good for Eth mining.

If the 470 memory can be overclocked to 2250MHz or higher, its performance could match that of the 480.

After the price of Ethereum dopped below $10, it will be unprofit for me to me with 7970 next month.

Forget everything about the AMD cards, the 1060 will enter on July 19th in thr ring and will break everything ! I say that even if I'm an hard AMD defender, but what I saw a few minutes ago made me change my mind, at least until AMD do something better !

I say that even if I'm an hard AMD defender, but what I saw a few minutes ago made me change my mind, at least until AMD do something better ! please explain what did you see, what about hash speed / power ? I used to be nvidia fan, till iv switched most of my cards to r9 280x ,sold many off them when gpu mining was bleeding out..but right now im looking for a fresh stuff!

From the performance we see from the AMD RX 480 in the Ethereum mining, the RX470 could be a good card.

etheruem is not the top notch anymore, it does not matter how they are good on etheruem if they are shit on other algo

I think the AMD RX 470 could be a good card for the Etheruem mining as long as the memory width is 256 bit.

not better than the 480 already, scaling between the two should be very akin, so i see now point in buying one unless you want a low budget build

The 470 is good for the ethereum mining. But it is not good for other algorithms. The ETh mining will stop within a year.

The hashing rate is too high at present.

The hashing rate is too high at present. If you do not have existing graphics cards, it is better not to buy new ones now unless you have very cheap electricity price.
