I am currently undecided about what GPU to buy. I am new to PC Building and because of low budget I want to be sure to get the BEST out of my money. Its kinda paranoid to be honest.

So Im undecided between a RX570 Gaming X that can be overclocked to 1400MHz and a Gigabyte RX580 Gaming 4GB with a base clock of 1350MHz.

The answer seems obvious but the gigabyte raised suspicion on me because it is extremely cheap (it is 5 euros more than the RX570).

Thanks for your help in advance.

Companies usually offer more than one model of videocard. This is so they can hit different price points. They'll typically have the least expensive model, a mid range model, and an expensive model. The Gigabyte expensive 580 is the Aorus, not the Gaming. The MSI Gaming X is their expensive 570. I think that's what's going on here. This is least expensive 580 vs most expensive 570.

This is, by the way, one reason I don't like to buy the most expensive in the line of cards offered. It is usually close enough in price to the next model higher in performance, so that it's a better value to just buy the faster card.

Thank You all for your answers guys! Wasn't expecting it to be this fast. I am buying it from a portuguese local store, PCDiga, hopefully you can translate a bit of it with Chrome!

In reddit someone told me it might have cooling issues, is this true or am I fine?
