Whats normal power draw from 580 cards? The specs says 250W. But some sites says 125-150w.
110-125 (undervolt).

The cheapest ($361) is Gigabyte Radeon RX 580 4GB Aorus. 1381 mhz. 2 fans.

The most expensive ($120 more) is ASUS Radeon RX 580 8GB ROG Strix Top Gaming, 1431 mhz. 3 fans.

About 40 mhz difference, will it be noticable?


A $120 premium for a RX 580 is absolutely not worth it no matter what type of RX 580 it is. The difference will be minimal if it's even noticeable. The price for the card is a little more than I am accustomed to seeing in the US, but if you really want to start mining now then go ahead. I've been seeing 570 4GB cards in the US near $200 USD recently. Both the 70 and 80 cards hash almost identically, and what's cheapest is usually best if there are memory mods/straps for the card.

Good:

Gigabyte Aorus RX 580. This model is heavily overclocked out of the box (1439 MHz) and has a new cooler that's a huge upgrade over the Gigabyte RX 480. The card been praised as being cool and keeping clocks stable and Newegg claims that temperatures and noise levels are excellent.

Sapphire Nitro RX 580. Sapphire revamped the cooling solution and the Nitro RX 580 is a huge upgrade over the Nitro RX 480. The cooler is quiet and remains at 75 C or below even at a 1450 MHz clock speed. This review has the Nitro 580 being quieter than a EVGA GTX 1060 SSC which is pretty crazy.

Sapphire Pulse RX 580.The Pulse RX 580 has three heatpipes on the bottom of the heatsink which is the same configuration as the Nitro 480 (look at the image above). The Pulse 580 heatsink is definitely different from the Nitro RX 580 (the image above shows that the Nitro 580 has two heatpipes on top and two on the bottom). Thus, I still think that the Pulse 580 has the same heatsink as the Nitro 480, which makes the review's findings quite unexpected. A new review for the Pulse 580 was released; it confirms that the Pulse 580 cooler is actually improved over the Nitro 480 with a larger heatsink and an extra heatpipe.. I've moved it from "probably good" to "good" since its thermals and fan noise are pretty good, especially for the price.

Hi.
What rx 580 to choose? There is so freaking many of them.

Sapphire Radeon RX 580 8GB Nitro+ SE seems to be the best?
CHEAP IS BEST, so find the cheapest GPU with dual fans if you in HOT area or you can go with 1 fan if in COLD area.
