Does anyone know why Sapphire is the goto brand for mining? Have a number of Sapphire RX480 (£240) but out of a batch of 12, 2 of them are not that good, constantly crashing. I am thinking of getting the ASUS AMD Radeon RX 480 STRIX 8GB version which is £220. What are the performance compared to Sapphire? I am getting roughly 300h/s on mine.

How about 8GB Asus Radeon RX 480 DUAL OC which is £190

yes sapphire is the best for mining  doesn't matter what gpu model, 270's 380's 470's  all my sapphire are faster than any others, mostly because they have higher ram frequency  and they always the cheapest in my area

and my asus (have 380 only) are the worst

Thanks for the reply - thoughts on RAM? 4GB only slightly worse off than 8GB right? I am tempted to try out the 470 as they seem to represent very good value. Just thinking if the extra ££ is worth the very small increase in % hash
