Gigabyte AORUS RX 580 8gb

[SooWhat]

Is it a good version of rx 580?

Any problems compared to other cards?

Noisy? Warmer than it should be?

Any extra info would be great

AMD generally runs hotter, likely due to higher power consumption.  Once you're around the $200 price range, it's generally better to go for the GTX 1660.  You can also wait for the Navi cards to come out July 7th to see if NVIDIA cards drop in price to compete.  The real AMD deal is in the RX 570, since I've seen it as low as $110 + 2 games (World War Z & The Division 2 - Gold).  Anything above that pretty much pushes into better performance, power consumption and heat from NVIDIA range.

 

From what I can see, your specific model is pushin around the $300, so it'd be even better to go w/a GTX 1660 TI or wait for the possible lowered prices of the RTX 2060 after Navi's launch.

 

If you're lookin to stick w/AMD or that specific card, then I haven't heard anything bad about it, whatsoever.

Sooo basically I bought an used Sapphire RX 580 Pulse 8Gb for its quieter fans. Going to see how it performs tomorrow.
