Which one do you recommend? (RX 570)

Kinan135
Hello,
I'm considering building a 700$ AMD PC Build
700$ spent in Switzerland is like 500$ in the US.

So I'm pairing Ryzen 5 2400g with an MSI
Radeon RX 570.
But I have two GPU models at almost the same price
I would like to know which one do you recommend;
- MSI RX 570 Armor OC 4GB VRAM 1168 MHz 7 GHz ($158)

- MSI Radeon RX 570 Armor 8GB VRAM 1168 MHz 1.75 GHz ($161)

(they might seem overpriced but remember this is in Switzerland)

The first GPU have the 'OC' in the name, does that mean that the second one is not overclockable?
I would like a PC Build that will stay relevant for me for couple of years.

if it's just $3 for an extra 4gb of VRAM then you might as well just get the 8gb 570.

much better than the MSI Armor 4GB for sure. I myself won't pay $40 extra for 8GB of memory for a card only this fast, it's often overwhelmed by settings that need more than 4GB memory imo and frame rates dip below 60 regardless. I'd get the Sapphire 4GB

Do you already have a 2400g? You could get a 2600 for about $10 more.  6 core 12 thread.

 

For the price difference I would grab the 8gb

Get the 8GB version. OC means it's overclocked out of the box. You can buy the 8GB version and OC it yourself. 

 

Also is 2400g the only option? I'd try to get a 2600.

I don't have the 2400g yet but I'm choosing it because it comes in a bundle.
But yeah I think I will buy the 6 cores for some extra dollars.

Definitely get the 2600 if you can squeeze it into the budget, it should last you years where as you might be wishing to upgrade in a year or two if you get the 4 core.
