Thanks for the answers, so which NEW cards would you recommend for mining then?
Regards

RX 400 SERIES ARE SELLING OUT--

If you can buy a new RX 400 series card, you are lucky.  I do not have any RX 500 series cards, but they currently sell for less than a same-level RX 400 card.

On the other hand, R9 280X cards can be bought used for much less (1/2 price?).  They have a wider bandwidth, and perform well.

I am sure that RX 500 series cards will be optimized before the Vega cards reach the market.  Expect a price drop then.

I have a rig's worth of R9 280X cards on the shelf.  I'll likely use them again before selling them.       --scryptr

the 7950 (the one the 280x rebranded) are even cheaper.
