If i was you i would like to mine a new coin.
Do some research about new altcoin that have a good development and potential in the future,
Only that way you can earn profit,if you want to mine something like ETH or XMR you will only gain a loss.
Because the difficulty is too high and you electricity fee.
But if you want,you can try your luck mining in nicehash like other people did.

Just beware,do not push your pc to the corner because it will only bring a harm to your pc

If it's RX480 and you have a good PSU, you can mine ETH or some of its variants.

Use the following link to calculate your profit. You need to know your hashrate and cost for electricity.

The above tool may not be accurate but may give you an idea.

If that card is RX 470, then mine the ETH.

Besides heating your house, paying the electricity bill and reduce your computer lifespan. I don't think mining is still a good option as for today.
So, either you are very optimistic about a coin you think will be worth 100x it's current value for example (and hence mining will profit you in long-term)
Either you can turn to low market cap currency and mine a few of them, crossing the fingers that one day the market cap of these cryptocurrencies will be high
Or either you can turn to other cryptocurrencies that don't use CPU or GPU mining like Burst (HDD mining)
