The RX 590 cards are out and shipping to customers. Strange no one has posted the hash-rates yet ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

Here is good review of RX 590, but nothing about hashrate: https://hexus.net/tech/reviews/graphics/124211-amd-radeon-rx-590/According to review: "Though no obvious changes in architecture have occurred since the original Polaris XT (Radeon RX 480) launch in June 2016, this latest GPU, Radeon RX 590, kicks up the core clock by over 20 percent. Radeon RX 590, therefore, is an overclocked Radeon RX 580 which is an overclocked Radeon RX 480."

Price $300 buy gaming slower than 1070
what amd thinking about this product?
Hi I read reviews for the RX 590, 1070 and 1070ti think there is a graphics card between. If the price is $ 250, I think it could be a great start.

How can you go from a 14nm chip to a 12nm chip and double the power requirements? 225 watts? Don't smaller die chips usually go the other way on power consumption? If you're not making a more power efficient and higher performance product what's the point? Everyone will simply switch back to $100 used RX 470s and 480s and call it a day while AMD goes down in flames. Something is definitely odd. Chris B.

The RX590 series is nothing more than a overclocked , fine tuned RX 480 / RX 580 ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) So the wait and the speculation over , the cards are on the market ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Radeon RX 590 is still based on AMD’s fourth-gen Graphics Core ( RX480/RX580 ) In other words, all of the 590’s gains come from a higher core clock rate , and of course higher power consumption. Radeon RX 590’s official board power is 225W compared to the "older" 580’s 185W rating. 22 percent power consumption increase for 15 percent overclock, for what AMD claims is an up to 12 percent performance boost. With a board power rating of 225W (higher than GeForce RTX 2080), performance per watt metrics won’t be a pretty good options for miners ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) The only notable difference is a transition from GlobalFoundries’ 14nm FinFET process to a 12nm FinFET node

Nothing new actually from this card except a bit of more Teraflop. Amd has not brought anything new like Nvidia did with their RTX. I hope they have in mind something better for mining in March of next year, at that time usually they come up with something new.
Mining at this point makes very little sense although I am keeping my miner on. We should wait for something better than a card with 225 watt power consumption with no real improvement to the hashrate, that 10-15% more performance is seen only in gaming so far.

I've ordered 1 (one) Sapphire RX 590 from Amazon to test. If it performs good with decent running wattage I'll buy more. If not, it will be disposed of on Ebay and I'll stick to the older 4th and "5th" so called gen cards. 12 nm has got to be better than 14nm, surely. Chris B.

Depends on the algo, core intensive algos might have advantage on rx590 but at the price of higher consumption, memory is pretty much the same as on rx570/580

STrange that nobody isnt showing eth hashrate.Does anybody know will polaris work with 590? I will probably buy one on monday its 250e app 300 dolars (Fatboy from xfx,probably micron memory) and try it out myself and ofc share results.

First one is that 14nm -> 12nm is not a major change in die size. And second is that you can see that they have very different clock rates. You need to compare the power consumption with equal specs and you will notice a difference but it will be minor change. I agree with you however that an $100 second hand RX 470/570 is a better bargain if you are mining, however these are mostly geared towards gamers.

I wouldn't be surprised if RX 590 can handle 200MHz higher core at the same voltage even while undervolted. This means that 1400MHz @0.9V or 1200MHz @0.8V is possible, which brings ~15% higher hash OR ~10% lower power draw on core-bound algorithms, including cryptonight. Ethash hashrate will most likely be unaffected, so this card wouldn't be viable for ethereum.

It does not seem to exceed the watt performance of RX 470.
Actually it should be better or everybody hope so ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) if rx590 make better power efficiency it good news for miner. but in long term when miner what to change card price surely drop very much because gamer like nvidia card more than amd card. and performance of this card not impress when compare to 1060 nvidia will launch 1060 with gddr5x with same price and next year nvidia launch gtx2060 too. The performance of the RX590 is increased by 12-15% (Core - 1469-1545 Mhz), so its hashrate during the mining of the Ether will give 30-32 mh, which allows to compete with GTX1070. If we compare the memory bandwidth of the GTX1060 6 Gb GDDR5X (192 bits) and the Radeon AMD RX590 (256 bits), we see a 7% lag of the model from Nvidia, which is completely leveled by a higher memory speed (by 20%). Performance of the memory subsystem of both video cards is approximately the same with a small gain from Nvidia (when using ETHlargementPill). Considering that GTX1060 6 Gb GDDR5X uses 16nm process, the energy efficiency of these cards should theoretically be worse than that of the RX590, which are produced with 12 nm process. But in practice, AMD cards can consume more because they use more cores.

Ethereum hashrate has almost nothing to do with core speed, as long as it is high enough (around 1150-1200MHz mark). Increasing it further has no effect on the hash.
