Msi armor was worst card i used
I couldn't push rx 580 armor with Samsung memory more than 30mh on eth only (tried about 7 different roms)
But my only asus rx 570 ex micron giving me 29.5 mh
No real deference in cooling

whichever you can actually find in stock is best, my guess is neither

Armor cards are pretty bad even at stock (pretty much the bare minimum for cooling but it's OK). Both cards aren't the best but I'd probably go for the Asus card. The MSI Armor is also one of the """cheapest""" RX 570s out there for system builders, a reason why more are hitting the market today (people buying whole PCs, selling gpu and getting cheaper one).

msi armor cards suck if you over clock and push them.

asus dual  cards suck if you overclock and push them. not sure if the dual is the same as the expedition

so if you don't mind lower hash rate and don't push them they will work.

I have some nvidia 1070 armor msi and they use the same cooling system.
People are complaining all over the web, but I never had any problem, they are running just fine.

More details: <65 degrees at 50% fan speed in a 25 degree room

Hi guys,

These are two of the cheapest options available out there, but there's really not much information available about these cards. The lack of information regarding these models is a bit surprising considering these cards sell for about $30 to $40 less than the more popular Nitro+, MSI Gaming, etc...

If any of you guys could let us know a bit more about how cool these card runs (the main drawback on cheaper versions is usually the cooling system), how much power do they draw ?

I'm pretty sure there are MANY people in the same situation since these are by far the cheaper cards available.
