Thanks, Connor
Also by the way while I'm here should I get a Gigabyte Radeon RX580 8gb or Gigabyte GTX 1060?
Try your luck with the new altcoins, there is always a rush at the beginning and if it becomes succusfull you might get a decent cut.
As for your second question, it depends on what you want to mine, the Nvidia cards are better with some altcoins while the AMD card is better with others, Nvidia cards are cheaper right now, but I personally would go with AMD, because their GPUs (the chip) are more complexe and have more functionalities baked in that doesn't get exploited right away and their brute computational power are higher so they tend to age much much better, it is called FineWine tehcnology .
