I think my OCD is kicking a little bit maybe, but hopefully I could get some opinions on something the has been plaguing me lately. My RX580 GTS has turned out to be a pretty decent overclocker ( Final 24/7 is 1500core / 2250mem @ 1.275v max 60-70c temps ) But I have been thinking about possibly jumping to the XFX GTR (or GTR-S) mainly because it seems to have a bit better PCB and cooling as well as 8+6pin for power, where my GTS only has a single 8pin. Thinking that may lead to even higher "Possible" overclock. Help me out here, need some input, this has been nagging me and I'm down to my last day or 2 for my return on the GTS if I'm going to do it.
And what are your thoughts on the Asus Strixx RX580, It sounds like it has the best PCB (VRM) and cooling of all 580's .. but they ONLY come in single 8 pin ... lord HALP MEH!! ;)

If you have the cash I don't see any reason to buy another RX580o_O
Buy a faster single card instead, a GTX1070 or faster....
Unless you will use them both for CrossFire.

Kinda holding out for Vega tbh... This is just temporary to feed my overclock/tweaking addiction :D

*Update*

Modded bios last night to use 1750 strap and 1.2 base Vcore in WattMan and got a very nice bump in scores from bench from the added Mem bandwidth. Jumped +50 points to 2750 in Superposition alone at the same clocks 1500/2250. More tinkering later ... I think I'm gonna spring for a EK universal waterblock to play with this further.
