I believe the default power consumption of rx 580 is slightly higher than rx 570 by about 20w(I might be wrong) but I am sure they where higher, I believe that explains the higher power draw at the wall.

Set lower voltages and underclock. Also you can mod bios to be less power intensive.

hello i had before 1x rx570 msi armor in my mining and it take at wall 167W. now i put only 2x powercolor dragon rx 580 4gb and they take from wall 390W (without the rx 570) that is not too high ? I expected consumption ~ 330W

Download saphire trixx n play with the volt to under volt it. It helps to bring down the needed power.

Also read up other topic on bios mod too.
