Quoting: GuestRx470 is almost fast as rx570 and open source drivers are faster than in 2016, but this will help you:

RX570 is not that huge upgrade from GTX 770, unless you are VRAM limited

Quoting: ShmerlSapphire Nitro+ RX 580 is a pretty good card until next generation of AMD GPUs will come out. Get one with 8 GB VRAM though, it will help for Wine+dxvk especially.

Quoting: mt7479Id like to get myself some AMD love but I'm unsure what card to pick or if i should get one at all.

My rig is outdated (Haswell 2013) and I'm looking to do a rebuild next year, effectively waiting for 7nm Ryzen and next gen AMD GPU. I likely will stay with full HD for gaming, even for the next generation.

I'm playing stuff like Observer, Layer Of Fear, Soma, not the most demanding games IMO. I would like to revisit Deus EX MD and Rise of the Tomb Raider.

The two options I think i have are:

* Get a cheaper card, that will grant me some fun the next 1 1/2 years. Replace immediately on new build.
* Get a decent card for 1080p that will even be usable in my next build, probably until I swap for anything 1080p+.

I'm currently considering one of those two cards:

[PowerColor Radeon RX 570 Red Dragon, 4GB GDDR5](https://www.powercolor.com/product?id=1493878067)

I could get that card for ~ 219 €, only makes sense if I stick with 4GB VRAM, models with more get me in the RX 580 price range.

Now I can't find any benchmarks for RX 570, only for RX 560 which i think would not be much of an upgrade compared to my existing GTX 770.

[Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 580 8GD5](http://www.sapphiretech.com/productdetial.asp?pid=B66182B7-1EA6-42A9-8762-FCCE003B491A&lang=eng)

That card would be ~ 309 €. Phoronix benchmarks look good but I think I would be CPU limited. Also for that kind of price i probably would like to keep it a bit longer than next year.

Thanks for your help!

Quoting: ArehandoroSupposedly Nvidia will release the new generation and that might bring prices down of the current one too.

Quoting: ArehandoroOn the other hand, the kind of games that I play aren't so demanding either -The Witcher 3 is probably the most demanding game I have played for a while- which makes me think I could probably wait till next year with 7nm and the new cards.

Same here. The Witcher 3 is probably the most demanding game I have now. Vega 56 helps with it quite a bit though. Significant difference from Sapphire Nitro+ RX 480 card I had before (which is quite close in specs to RX 580).

Quoting: crt0megaLooks like JC went for that 580. Congrats! :)

Quoting: ArehandoroWhat CPU do you have and what's the wattage of your power supply, if you don't mind me asking? Heard Vega is a sucker for power and would like to keep that at a minimum.

Ryzen 7 2700X / Seasonic Prime Ultra Titanum 750 W. You can probably get a lower wattage PSU for such kind of setup, but I got this to have a spare margin. Vega is indeed power hungry, especially Nitro+ variants from Sapphire. That's why I got Pulse Vega 56. It's less power hungry and is still noticeably better than RX 480 / 580.
