1070 gtx is much more powerful on the compute side , also the cards access  memory in a different way .  more over the 580 not modded is much slower than a 1070 .... 1070 in ETHEREUM uses half of the energy of a 580  or 2/3 depends  on the oc ...  1070 gtx is overall a much better card

GTX 1070 is a way better card then the RX 580.
But in Etheruem AMD cards are better so that's why you don't see the difference.
But Nvidia cards are stronger in Zcash, so that's the reason why your RX580 won't compete with a 1070.

You just repeated what he said...I think he wanted to know WHY Cheesy

One of guys who write minig software could probably explain it best
(claymore, wolf etc)

Haha exactly. You are right I should ask wolf or claymore about this, because it really doesn't make sense.

Diffirence is on memory rail  ,example Gtx 1080 256 bit vs gtx 1080ti 352 bit.
You are right  there is difference between gtx 1080 and 1080ti, but rx 580 and gtx 1070 have the same memory bus, in another words they are the same 256bit cards. Edit: and have the same memory size 8GB vs 8GB

Is about modding i think, AMD share a lot, in counterpart NVDIA prefer to keep everything for NVIDIA. I suppose AMD get a lot more of work time from all this miner dev, in result AMD can versus NVIDIA, but i suspect if dev miner put equivalent work on NVIDIA optimisation ( but as i think is more complicated a lot of nvidia env is closed ).

Can someone explain to me why is Rx 580 doing about 32MH same as Gtx 1070 on ETH or ETC, but rx 580 is doing about 300sols and gtx 1070 about 450sols on ZEC? I really dont get it, they are both gddr5, they have the same memory speed and memory bandwidth, only difference is core speed, gtx have 1920 cores at speed 1650, rx have 2300 cores at 1350 which is about 7% faster on gtx, but gtx is getting about 50% more sols on ZEC.
