I'm going to mine mainly ETH but i'm also developer testing & coding software for mining and i use my farm in these tests.
I noticed a huge difference in price between rx580 and 1070 and this is why i started this thread.
319$ and 499$ is big difference for such close performance.
Any concrete advantage of 1070 over rx580 ?
Thanks
Let me rephrase - ETH utilizes memory bandwidth and the GPU's compute performance is nearly irrelevant for this coin. On any other algorithm that utilizes the core, RX 580 performs about as good as GTX 1060 6GB while drawing more power, so GTX 1070 will be roughly 50% more powerful than 1060/6 and RX 580.
It's like saying that two different vehicles are the same because both can reach the speed limit.
