what you guys think? I'm thinking of upgrading my rx460 to a rx480. But with Navi so close maybe it's worthwhile waiting and saving a bit more to get navi. After all there's just a handfull of games where rx460 falls short, and Windows games mostly not that I care much.
It should be taken into account what happens with the mining industry, with coin prices low and ASIC miners being 5 times more efficient than graphics cards, prices should stay low, but you never now what could happen in the future.

I'm mentioning 480 because you can probably get it cheaper, and the 580 it's a refresh, my 460 reports as a 560 in some apps.
I don't know what you call high.... on AMazon you can get a 480 refurbished for 140 and a brand new for 220 usd. I don't mind buying refurbished as long it has amazon seal of approval.

now here's an article that says that by the end of the years AMD will launch the rx 6xx lineup, a polaris refresh. I don't think they will launch Navi so close to rx600, my guess is that navi will come way into 2019.

Naming of the GPUs is a bit odd if true, but well i guess they want to line up with the ryzen numbers and then also its marketing, so they have higher numbers than nvidia. But yeah, since the RX590 problems i wouldnt hold my hope for day 1 amazing support.
