Sapphire RX 580 Nitro+ Vs Asus RX 580 Dual OC

Hi guys. My GPU died on me recently, and I'm in the market for a new one. I checked my local listings and I managed to find these two.

https://www.asus.com/sg/Graphics-Cards/DUAL-RX580-O8G/

http://sapphirenitro.sapphiretech.com/en/580-8.html

Under normal circumstances, I understand Sapphire Nitro+ would be more worth it, considering the fact that both are the same price. However, the Asus is new (3 years warranty), whereas the Sapphire Nitro+ is used, and has 2 years warranty left.

I know this is more of a subjective matter, but for those who have built their PCs and have had things spoil etc, would you guys recommend the Asus or the Sapphire instead? 

Also, the Sapphire card is superior to that of Asus, that I know. However, for normal usage (playing CS:GO, and other not-too-demanding games), will I see a major difference in performance if I do decide to go for the Asus in the end?

Thanks! I really hope I can get some helpful replies, because there's only one GPU for each, and I'd really hate to see them being sold off.

Asus gives 36 months of warranty for new cards. Sapphire gives 24.

If the Nitro+ has close to 24 months warranty left, it's also new.

I see...assuming both are around the same price, sapphire or Asus?

I have the sapphire Rx 580 nitro+ and it works really good.
