Im going full team red. Bought two RX 480s to crossfire to replace my 1070. Every game I play supports crossfire. Looking at 22% performance increase in those games with crossfire, with the dual 480 setup being $100 cheaper. It will also be around 100% more efficient in mining crypto, which will pair nicely with my 1700x which also mines quite well. Slightly superior gaming performance, significantly cheaper, and significantly better crypto mining performance. And it'll look cooler. Whats not to love with that? Gonna have to do all sorts of comparisons before and after.

haha, I don't have them yet. Just purchased them today. I will be selling the 1070. Its worth ~$280. That pays for my 480s and gives me ~$70 profit and I have a $40 SLI bridge I can sell as well. The entire point Is I literally get a vastly superior setup - and I get paid to do it. The cards will have a gap in between , they'll have plenty of cooling.
It'll look like this (What I used to have) but of course the color scheme will change from green to red as I can no longer associate with green:
