Topic: Best gpu rx 580 (Read 376 times)
thx
i have 10 gpus from 5 diffirent brands with hynix/samsung memory, all doing fine [email protected] just a question of modding/config miner proper. hynix is a littlebit tricky, so i would suggest samsung memory for beginner
Some time ago I had ASUS brand but I went to the manufacturer MSI. Quiet cooling. For me it's RX 580 GAMING X 8G - https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/Radeon-RX-580-GAMING-X-8G.html#hero-overview
I have had good luck with MSI 8GB - hashing equihash/Ethos/298h/s at 48C.
Sapphire and Powercolor.
You must have a defective Nitro+ card or you have the card in a location without airflow around it. The heatsink is much larger on the Nitro+ compared to the Pulse cards which also don't have open heat pipes. There is no way the Pulse cards would run cooler than the Nitro+ with the same settings. I can overclock some of my Nitro+ RX 580 cards to 2250 MHz memory while the Pulse only handle 2100 MHz running at 72C while dual mining and having a fan blow directly on the cards, otherwise they would hit 78C. The dual Bios switch on the Nitro+ cards is good to have for loading two different optimized timing straps for mining different algorithms like ETH and XMR.
I have Nitro+ and Pulse. I can confidently say that the Pulse is better. They have better cooling and the rate of 1mh/s faster. If you double the production remains the same difference. The fact that these cards have dual BIOS is irrelevant. I never use this feature and don't understand why it is needed.
I have Asus, MSI, Powercolor and Sapphire RX 570/580's. I have the best results with the Sapphire Nitro+ non SE RX 580 cards. Both the SE and non SE cards overclock well after a simple Polaris Bios Editor v1.62 'one click timing patch' Bios mod and run cool. The non SE cards are cheaper and I prefer them. The blue RX 580 SE cards also have annoying blue led fans that can't be turned off.
From a mining aspect, the Sapphire Pulse cards are good for dual mining but run much hotter and don't overclock as well as the Nitro+. I wouldn't recommend getting the Pulse cards if the price difference is $25 or less. No dual Bios switch on the Pulse card either.

You mean the best brand?
Frankly speaking it will still be the same RX 580 even if it is a different brand the only difference is the factory overclock / boost clock of the brand and the cooling solution. I would suggest that get the cheapest card that you could get since it will still be the same architecture and the factory overclock / boost clock is just a minor bump in performance or hash rate. The only this that you would consider is the cooling solution or the fans of the card which will be beneficial if you will be using it for mining(remember that you will run your GPU 24/7).
For that note I would suggest that you get a Sapphire Nitro+ or Pulse if it is not that expensive since it have better cooling than most RX 580 brands out there.
