Best GPU around the $200 mark??

[SkyguyXD]

I'm building a pc with a tight budget and need to pick out a graphics card for around $200.  

There's two I'm currently considering: 

 

RX 590 8g Sapphire Pulse

RX 590 8g ASRock Phantom Gaming X

 

Any of you have experience with either these cards?

Any other GPUs I should consider at this price-point?

A used GTX 1070 is also in that price range, for your consideration.

 

The sapphire pulse would be my pick.

You can take a gander at your local ads and see what is available, I reckon there should be plenty of people upgrading and selling their old but still good stuff.

Asrock can be hit-and-miss for GPUs, but since OP is going for an AMD GPU he really can't go wrong with Sapphire.

 

Sapphire has an extensive portfolio of well-made quality Radeon cards stretching back years.

The 980 Ti consumes a lot more power for more or less the same performance; if he has the PSU for it and can score a good deal on a 980Ti, of course he should go ahead. But, with a 250W TDP rating chances are he'll need to get a new PSU too, and then you are better off going for an used 1070.

Saphire or XFX

Any decent PSU is going to be at least 450W, which is plenty for a 980 Ti.  If it's a lower wattage then chances are he'll need to replace it anyway.

look for vega 56 on the used market.

The ASRock has an extra year of warranty coverage...
