Hey /g/, how good do you think Vega will be when it comes to cryptocurrency mining?

Think it will be worth it to mine with it over the RX 580?

Think the gaming version will be better for mining?

Also I thought only difference was cooler designs (same as with the Nvdia founders edition fiasco)

no, mining is all about the best performance per watt. Top tier cards are usually too expensive and too power hungry compared to good middle tier cards.

Welp there goes my excuse for being an early Vega adopter

I'll wait for the regular "gaming" version then and see how that does

same

I was thinking of getting a 580 for a while but seeing how rare they are and how long I've waited I figured I might as well save a hundred or two and get some 1070+ tier low range VEGA for dank 1440p 144hz in the future
