RX 480 4Gb / 8Gb – Which is better for mining? Why?

I’m around to get the knowledge to be able to choose between the two cards –
4Gb version is cheaper by around $50, which is $300 by 6 cards.
So it’s worthy to know if is it really weaker? How much?

I found the tech specs, etc… but doesn’t really find the answer about if it worths / or will worth to have the 8 Gb version.
E.g. There is a probability the optimized miners will (significantly?) perform better on that, due to more ram, or it’s really nothing to do with mining at this point.

What do you think?

Apparently you can run several instances at once. Each one would take 1.75 GB…With 8GB you’ll have more room to play and wont be limited by the RAM…
