powercolor doesnt make great coolers on their cheaper cards though some of their higher end cards are okay

 

MSI ARMOR and ARMOR mk2 are avoided as both are shitty coolers and are really loud. also avoid the singlefan MSI card

 

Sapphire or XFX is usually the way to go. Asus is okay but Sapphire or XFX make the best cards. avoid the ASrock cards aswell, ASrock is new to the game and hasnt yet made a good cooler on the rx 580.

Own a Red Devil RX 570, 89% ASIC quality and overclocked like a beast. No complaints.

afiak, armor coolers are shit, tho not sure if that's exactly why people say not to buy MSI armor

MSI makes good 400 series mobos. they didnt make good 300 series motherboards. but they are currentyl selling the best 400 series mobos and high end mobos.

that is exactly why we avoid MSI armor cards. the armor cards on the RTX series is okay.

I am happy with my Power Color Red Dragon RX 580 8GB.

 

I've been running it for over a year with no issues. Great for 1080P and VR.

I've got a RX 580 XFX GTS Black Core edition (the one that is advertised as 1405 MHz) and I absolutely love it for 1080 gaming. I have it overclocked to 1465 MHz and it does so without complaint.
