RX 580 and GTX 1060

[pakitomkitom]

Should I get the 580 or the 1060?

And if the 580, is there a big difference between 4gb and 8gb?

where did you find rx 580 there are barley any of them left those damn miners took them all xD

but if u found one go for the rx 580 so that u can use it for mining/gaming

If you can find one at a reasonable price, get an RX 580. Unless you are gaming at 1440p Ultra or above, 4GB is enough.

They are perform pretty much at the same level, it really depends on the game:

The 580 has a bit of an edge overall, but they're still going to trade wins depending on the game. 8 GB may let you run higher levels of AA compared to 4 GB, but beyond that I can only think of 1-2 games that have released ultra-high quality texture packs that want more than 4 GB at 1080p.

All the reviews I've seen have the RX580 perfomring about like a hypothetical GTX1065, i.e. better than a 1060Ti....; given equal or only slightly higher prices, it's a good deal, but, the 'good 'ole days of $249 prices on GTX1060Ti seem gone for some reason...

Actually, some of the newer games now use more than 4GB at 1080p. I've started playing "Player unknown's battlegrounds" and my R9 290x can't run it on Ultra at 1080p as it runs out of VRAM. I've seen videos of GTX 1060 running close to 6GB at 1080p in the game.
