Hello. Which country are you purchasing the GPU in? Which website, or store, will you be purchasing it from? What are your main games? What is your motivation to upgrade now, meaning what performance level (game settings and FPS) are you currently hitting, and what are your target game settings and FPS?

Also, which R7 200 series GPU do you currently have? R7 240? R7 260? etc

According to the "relative performance" chart link above, an AMD RX 580 8GB (try to ignore the 4GB version), would represent a 50% FPS improvement. Ideally, I'd opt for no less than a 60-80% FPS improvement, with 100% or greater being ideal.

If you'd like us to take a look at a specific website, please feel free to link it here. Google translate will probably be helpful enough for us to navigate it.
