Given the prices go for Sapphire Rx 470 Nitro + OC 4GB        $247

But you could maybe wait until AMD announces Vega on february 28th. It might decrease the prices of the current Rx by a bit

Where can i find realistic hasrate for those cards? I'm also interested to buy rx 470 8g, because they are cheaper and also have more memory. Few tests i found about temperature and power consumation are also factor for me. My choice would be MSI. http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/msi-radeon-rx-470-gaming-x-8gb-review,2.html

None actually. Default RX 480 Nitro+ 8GB gives around 24-25Mh/s for Ethereum.

YOU CAN NOT GET OUT MORE THAN 24-25 MH/S FROM RX480 WITH STOCK BIOS , STOCK SETTINGS
YES THOSE VIDEOS ARE WITH MODDED BIOS WITH MODDED MEM TIMING AND SOME FINE TUNE

Be aware that those cards all have a fan bug nor resolved since 2015.
Google: gpu 0% fan bug ------------------- https://community.amd.com/thread/191955
        gpu 100% fan bug -------------------
  GPU fixe % of fan bug ------------------- http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2879222/amd-crimson-software-bug-fry-gpu.html

Their Wattman software is a piece of crap.

I'll join the question,

I can get ASUS DUAL RX480 4GB for $184
or the same card with 8 GB for $210,
which one is better value for the money?

Also, I can get Asus strix rx 470 4gb for $167 or MSI rx 470 8gb for $194.
How do they fare against 480?

While talking about RX 480's (and 470's), which company makes them the best quality:
ASUS, Gigabyte, Sapphire (I've heard bad stuff about them), Powercolor, MSI or XFX?

Thanks a lot!

I have bought MSI Radeon RX 470 GAMING X 8gb.
What can i mine with this card, my system is win7 32 bits, do i need 64 bits or upgrade to newer, i'm not an serious miner more like weekend miner. I won't boost this card beyond limits. But plan is to buy few cards more if this turns to be success.

Cubirez gaved you great advice because today AMD released their new AMD's next generation GPU architecture but that isn't aimed for mining. Well, to my mind it's better to still wait for some time because maybe that new graphics card which is aimed for high end games and vr technology, will cause price drops but at the same time don't do things to waste that times without profit, think twice. Also I think for Sapphire Rx 480 Nitro + OC 4GB
