Hi everyone,
I'm new on this forum (and new to cryptos). I'm gonna buy some hardware tomorrow to start mining, I don't want do build a rig but just have 1 (or maybe later 2) GPU in my computer. I've done some research on what hardware to buy, so far I think I will buy
PSU:
One of those GPU's:
As for the GPU I can't decide yet (and I know there are many topics about the rx 470 vs rx 480 with the 480 havin a 10% higher hash rate), but my main question here is: would it be a shame to still buy a card with 4GB of RAM? Right now 4 GB seems to be fine for mining (all / most) of the altcoins, but what's the chance that in the near future 4 GB will not be sufficient anymore and the card would be useless? Or will 4 GB remain sufficient for a long time?
Any advice welcome
