Price would be the determining factor for me. Vegas (the 56 especially) weren't intended to be in a price range similar or exceeding that of the 1080ti cards, but here we are...

Vega is only good to mine cryptonight and yet is very similar priced x gtx 1080ti, I would take a gtx 1080ti any day over vega.

I'll take 2x 1080 Ti - more future proof.

Out of the two choices I would go for 2 x 1080ti. In my opinion it gives more flexibility towards what you can mine. Anyway, check if your PSU can provide enough power for 2 1080 ti or 2 VEGA 64. Since I suppose this old PC is in a case it should be also well ventilated.

I have a PC I barely turn on anymore which might as well be used to mine.

Currently specced as follows:
I7 3770
GA-Z77X-UP7 mobo
16gb RAM
XFX Fury

I have no experience with mining, just hoping to eventually cover the cost of the cards more than anything else.

I'm thinking either 2 x Vega 64 LC or 2 x 1080 Ti, however I'm open to idea's.

Thanks ☺
