Hello currently i have the following config:-
Amd a10 7850k 3.9 ghz 4 core
Corsair 750 watt cx psu

Now i want to add an discrete graphics card. But totally confused between the gtx and rx. Which one should i go for. I want to be future proof. Atleast for two coming years. My budget is around INR 15000(INDIAN RUPEE) OR USD 190 (approx).
Is there any other alternative in the same category?

There really isn't such a thing as "future proofing", but you can come really close to that. What you'll need to make it as future proof as possible is to get at least 4GB of VRAM, and to also have better DX12 performance. As there probably will be more and more games with an option to use that API.

Immediately this rules out Nvidia, because there is only one card within your Budget that has 4GB of vram, which is the 1050ti.
It's not a bad card, and yoy could go for that, but I think in this case the RX 570 will shine brighter.

Choosing the RX 570 will give 4GB of VRAM (you could go with 8GB but I think that's too much, and also that money could be better spent into maybe an RX 580 if your Budget allows), and also will give...

Around $190USD will definitely allow for a 570 4GB, but if you have he extra $10, you should definitely go for the RX580

Thank you for the reply. But i was considering the RX 460 4gb. What about it? Its 4gb vram plus dx 12. Actually i am very much tight on my budget.
