Rx 570 it's a great card. I mean I have one rig with Hynix, 30mh/s in dual with Dcr at 750mh/s.
And the price of 1900$ for 6 cards is very good if you ask me.

Not bad !

May I ask what miner you are using, and what model of rx 570 you're using ?



Sure Smiley Claymore v10.0, cards are MSI model.


Given all the changes in recent time, What looks to be the best buy now?

$260 1060/6gb
$180 1060/3gb
$210 RX 570 4gb
$230 RX 580
$400 1070
There is no best buy, there never was, it's all about managing the risks and calculating the overall cost. With amd cards you're mostly stuck with eth and cryptonight, and right now they're doing very well, but no one knows how they'll be doing a few months from now. The advantage of nvidia cards is that they are efficient at many more algos. The question between "more of the smaller cards vs less of the powerful ones" also has no definite answer, it's mostly down to the price of the slot and the total number of cards you manage. There are just no simple answers to complex questions. None of the 5 cards in the list is a bad choice.

I agree. That is a nice lineup though. But I would advise you to have both Nvidia and Amd, but it's up to you and what you want to do.
Claymore v10.0 are very good! I have them in my configuration
