RX 570 is cheaper...but the one you selected the ARMOR from MSI is aweful...the cooler on this thing is about the thickness of 3 paper sheet and those cards are stupid loud and run stupid hot :)

i'm sure you can find a better one ;)

 

Actually it's good enough for a 150w card. I bought an ex miner RX 480 8G Armor (not sure if repasted or not, I guess the miner didnt bother) for a friend and it tops at 80C under an ambient temperature of 30C. Not quiet, but inside a Corsair 200R the noise of case fans already drowns it out.

NO NO NO NO NO and NO...

Go read reviews for this card...it's AWEFUL...the cooler weight NOTHING and it's son thin it's not even funny there is barely 1$ worth of aluminum on this thing...for real...go check reviews the red dragon shit all over this crap MSI model...i swear to you.

I won't ever suggest that company, deal with it. It's the same reason why I won't suggest BFG (?) ASUS XFX. Only reason for buying their card is if you have to be cheap. So what if their fans are crap? Their card won't crap out on you and with proper airflow like I've said it won't matter because the cases airflow will remove the heat faster than it can build up.

Also you're at 310$ and AMAZON in canada charge a lot more in tax than newegg..so it's quite abit more expansive, for a much worse card....MUCH MUCH worse...don't go by brand...go by product quality for a second...don,t get me wrong i LOVE MSI cards...i have their top end 1080ti and it's amazing...but their low end models are some of the worst.

 

If Newegg is not charging the proper tax that's likely due to not having local tax number. So that only works if OP is in Quebec.
