[adast]

so i have 2 weeks left to build my self a desktop at the first i have added rx 480 gpu but then i saw a gtx 1060 which everyone says to go with gtx 1060 as i saw the price between them wasint that much as i can spare that extra £20 and get the gtx 1060 MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB GT OCV1
so i dont know which one would it be better as too i saw benchmarks its like 7fps more in amd gpu and 7fps more in nvidia gpu
here is my system just in case

6GB version is maybe 10% better.
It's your choice whether you want to spend the extra money on it.

If you plan to play mainly Dx12 games Rx 480
If you plan to play mainly Dx11 games GTX 1060
Otherwise depending on the concrete games do you plan to play or personal preferences.

well ... performance wise, they are practically identical - you can't tell the difference without benchmarking.
I'd go for the lower priced one and make the effort to get i5

most new games will come with dx12 support so go for rx480 nirto+ oc 4gb n have fun 😉

yeah I would say get the rx 480 since it's not far off the gtx 1060 in dx 11 now due to driver updates while retaining it's performance advantage in dx12
