rx 570 Nitro+ vs rx 570 MINI Pulse ITX

[Breesus]

Bonjour,

One of my contact is selling some of his mining cards :

RX 570 Pulse ITX for  $256
RX 570 Nitro + for $280

The ITX is a one fan card, is that enough to keep the card cool ? Does the Nitro + usually have a higher hashrate than the Pulse ?

Basically the question is : is it worth spending an extra 30 bucks for a Nitro + over an ITX ?

[Vann]

Absolutely, the Nitro+ is a better mining card with better cooling, a backplate and better resale value. The smaller ITX cards are meant for small form-factor cases.

With that being said, the ITX are also awesome.

They are both good and have their place.  Hashing won't be much different being that they are basically the same thing besides cooler.

For cooling it depends on your setup, open air setup with fresh air no problem, high density then it will run warm.

Nitro + will have better resale as it is built for over clockers, where the itx is good for some guy who just wants a nice card in his pc (non-hardcore).  For 24 bucks more Id get the Nitro +

Go for nitros you will pay off the difference with dual mining after few months and cards will be cooler than minis

For mining are both great although I suggest for only 24 USD more go for the Nitro+, they overclock a bit better. Still I have tried both versions and both works flawlessly in mining. If you are building a 6 GPU rig 24 USD x6 is not small savings anymore, you can pay your electricity for 3 months with that money.

Tight budget go with MINI Pulse, normal budget go with Nitro+
