    Should I get 570s for ETH mining/selling?

    I found a supply of RX 570s for about $220 each. Would it be worth picking them up (under the caveat they dont arrive for a month) to resell for ~350 (current price on ebay)?

    Unlikely... Ethereum is crashing because of difficulties and robbing of a lot of Ethereum coin robberies/hacks so cards will (SHOULD) get back in stock soon.

    That said there's always some cryptocurrency around the corner that will start the next craze.

    Get a 720s instead.

    720s seems like too much in my opinion, I'd settle for a 675LT

    I'll have to agree with you there. It's a nicer looking car too, I'm not really a fan of the 720s styling.

    From what I'm seeing it looks like a 6 month ROI right now. Not sure if I want to hunker down on that.
