The hype in crypto-currency mining is something the Radeon board partners jump onto. See below the first Radeon Mining Edition cards from Sapphire. The models are available in RX 470 and RX 560. Should the bubble burst, most cards to not have any resell value as they do not have display outputs.



The Sapphire Radeon RX 560 Mining Edition gets 4 GB of GDDR5 memory and is advertised as a 12 tot 15MH/s based on a 60 Watt TDP. Currently in the UK the product sells for as massive 170 pound sterling which is 199 euros (ex VAT). The Sapphire RX 470 Mining Edition on its end will become available in 4GB and 8GB models with mining compute rated at 23-26MH/s en 25-28MH/s. The TDP is at the 125 Watt marker there. These cards cost 260 pounds, which is 299 Euro ex VAT (!).
 

 
That makes the price level high compared to your normal gaming edition graphics card version. The cards can be used for  crypto-currency mining like Ethereum and Zcash.
