Hello guys!
I'm shopping right now for a new video card. Used models, I'm aiming for RX 480-580. I see a lot of XFX for sale, and from the opinions I get on internet, it's rather 50/50 on whether they run hot or just fine. I'd prefer the latter, since the airflow in my PC case is rather basic. All temps are good, so it's alright, but no sense in picking a card that runs too hot and then I have to invest more.
Do XFX run hot or not?
Also, I sometimes get GREAT deals about Vega 56 cards. Just missed an opportunity for 150$. My PSU is a Seasonic S12II 620w Bronze. I've been told that it's an old unit, not recommended for this card.
Seasonic S12II 620w Bronze for Vega 56 8gb, good or not?
Details, just so you know:
My budget is 175$ US, maximum.
Aiming for 1080p gaming resolution, nothing more. Max my screen can do is 1600x900, and I'm happy with that. Don't need ultra settings. Medium-High for Cyberpunk 2077, I'll be happy too.
My PSU is just one year old, I'm not buying another one.
Thanks a lot, and have a nice day!
