From what i've heard,AMD is THE BEST for mining,hashing.So for mining,AMD build will do just fine.

For rendering,check if the software with which you render uses CPU or GPU for rendering.If it uses CPU then there is no point in buying a 1070.If it uses GPU for rendering you can consider a single GPU(GTX 1070) although you should know that the programs which demand GPU for rendering prefer Quadro series GPU from Nvidia.

Could I do one gpu mining on one card and rendering on one gpu?

Yes you could

Don't mine unless you get asic miners. there is no point at this stage.

Yep.He is right.ASIC miners are the most profitable ones.Unless you build a hardcore rig.....I mean a really hardcore rig like a 8000 USD rig,mining won't be profitable.
But if you're planning to mine during free time provided the electricity charges are very low,then go on.

You think so? Is it hard to mine w/ GPU these days?

I will do in spare time, and also I want to pay off my Build slightly sooner.

I doubt that even with a 3000 USD build ,the time to get back what you invested is very long.

That is why people use ASIC miners or build a pc with a ton of GPUs which will eventually cost around 8000 USD

Would it be hard to use ASIC? Cuz Im still a noob. how many dollars per day would I earn with the 2x rx580 4gb, considering average electricity cost in Hong Kong?

I don't know much about mining bud.But try asking questions related to mining here https://linustechtips.com/main/forum/37-foldinghome-boinc-and-coin-mining/
