What gpu should I buy?

[CarlosxD]

I have up to £450 to buy a new GPU, but I'm limited to buy it from amazon uk (I have it on gift card), I wanted to buy RX580 8GB but it says "This item has not yet been released", I was reading about it and apparently ppl buy it for mining and it will be out of stock for a while,

What do you guys recommend to do? wait? or look for another one?, in this case which one?

My cpu it's the fx 6300 6cores black edition

Thanks

Just remember with that CPU you will be bottlenecked by getting a really nice GPU. You may notice an improvment but not using the full potential of your GPU because of the bottleneck.

Why not go for something like a GTX 1060?

If you don't NEED to buy a graphic card right now (at this very moment) then don't.

Etherium mining has made the price of all good graphic card skyrocket to ridiculous prices.

If you can wait it out then I recommend you do so.

A friend of mine as an fx 6300 paired with an RX 480 and the bottleneck is pretty terrible. I suggest waiting a bit longer and save for an entire platform upgrade.

I'm planning to buy FX 8350 or the Ryzen 7 1700X, but for now I need the gpu first

Do you reccommend me to get the gtx 1060 with this setup?
Thank you for your answer

I bought the rx 480 8gb and it wasn't working apparently it was Factory damaged or something like that I got a refund and now the 480 it's no longer available

I want to buy this time the gpu and later the cpu so I can still play some games with my fx6300 until I do the upgrade

If you are planning on moving to a new platform (which I would recommend) then just buy the GPU you want for the new system. Like a 1060 or 1070. You'll get a bottleneck for now but that will be removed when you upgrade to the new system.
