Comparing – RX560 vs RX 560XT vs RX470D vs RX580
As we have already said, the RX560XT is much closer structurally to the older RX570 / RX580 line than to the RX560 from which only the name remains. To make the positioning of the novelty clearer, we have compiled a small table.

The RX560XT significantly surpasses the RX560 in terms of the video memory subsystem and is very close to the indicators of the older series, which will primarily have a positive effect on the mining of Ethash and ProgPow algorithms.
The number of ALU cores will come out to be 80% higher, as well which means that the the performance of the RX560XT will be very close to that of the RX570, but a bit lesser in money.
