Re: AMD Radeon RX 590 Rumors 💲⛏ (Specs/Launch/Price)

It does not seem to exceed the watt performance of RX 470.

Actually it should be better or everybody hope so Grin

if rx590 make better power efficiency it good news for miner.

but in long term when miner what to change card price surely drop very much because gamer like nvidia card more than amd card.

and performance of this card not impress when compare to 1060 nvidia will launch 1060 with gddr5x with same price and next year nvidia launch gtx2060 too.

It depends on algo. XMR and other CN coins definitely AMD. ETH mining with 1060 GDDR5X will be better only with ETHlargement if it will work. The other algo like Keccak will be better on Nvidia for sure, but there is almost no difference with memory so you are pretty much fine with standard 1060.
RX 590 will be for sure more power efficient than RX 580, but we will see after first tests.
RX 590 should cost 300 USD, but I haven't seen price for 1060 6GB GDDR5X, but it will be more than 300 USD since GDDR5 version cost that.

gtx 1060 Launch price is 299 for Founders Edition and other brand price around 249-299.

i think nvidia will drop 1060 gddr5 to 199 same price as Launch price of 1060 3Gb and make 1060 gddr5x at price range 269-299
