480 vs 580

So with the leaked 580 specs being out, it looks like an overclocked 480. Will there be any improvement over the 480 other than lowered thermals due to the new manufacturing process and a higher clock speed? I have a 480 overclocked to 1375 and I'm wondering if there will be any advantage that the 580 has. Also, will it be crossfire compatible?

13700k, 3070, 32GB@3200

 I wouldn't worry about switching to a 580 since it isn't that big of a difference. As far as Xfire, just get another 480 if you want to do it.

Powercolor RX 480 8Gb Red Devil @1330Mhz

 

Bottom line:  Don't be a spaz or an 800lb gorilla when installing your expensive CPU, and you won't have any problems. --Phate.exe
