oh so get the 570 over the 470

What games do you play? I'd like to see if the games you'd be playing would warrant the need of an extra 4GB of VRAM.

yea if you can you should go for an Rx 580 because for only ~$25 more you should see a performance difference of around 20%

Eh, so long as you aren't turning texture options to the highest settings in newer games, the 4GB of VRAM should serve you well.

Ok so if the 580 isn't available then go with either one the performance difference is about 10%
