Sorry to ask maybe on the wrong topic.  I just wanted any opinions of the forthcoming AMD hardware and its possibility to bring forward mining speeds.   
580 will come soon but maybe a much bigger move will be Vega in May onwards.

Is Deep Learning relevant to crypto mining or not likely to bring mining gains for the various blockchains?

not sure 580 will change things significantly in performance per watt. More likely next generation Vega will though.


580 cards are the same polaris chip so until Vega we won't see anyting spectacular.
