Hi all, I want to change cards, I'm actually using rx580Nitro+ 4GB, but want to go for either rx580Nitro+ 8GB or gtx1070, or vega 56, considering prices, which is the best option at the present time? Even other cards would be fine, which is the best compromise for power consumption/price/hashrate now? Thanks in advance

While changing cards, is it a good idea to use 4GB cards to mine another currency? Or would it be better to still use them on ETH even with low profit?

You can't mine etc on 4Gb at all anymore, try etc or other ethash coins. As for the price of GPUs, good luck finding 1, that is if you are willing to pay 2-3x over retail for one. Even used gpus on eBay is selling at 2x the retail of a brand new one. Anything with less than 8Gb is useless for eth.
