Is this ok ???

[RoryRB]

Is the rx590 (specifically the msi armour 8 GB OC) to much GPU for a 2200g ???

While the pairing is fine, the armour cards are horrible. Get a Sapphire NN intro or MSI Gaming X model

It doesn't matter if you're an AMD guy or not, the cooling on the Armour series from MSI sucks. MSI makes the cooling shrounds, not AMD. The Gaming X cards are much better.

590 isn't worth it anyway, see if you can get a GTX 1660/1660ti. New or used should be fine

Ahh ok. Well, as I recommended before, a 1660/1660ti is better, so try and get that, new or used

I have considered that he just wants me to look deeply into both sides because he thinks im an nvidea fanboy and that my decisions might be a bit bias

He can run them at 100%, it won't matter. The armour series is garbage.

Honestly, I'd look for a used vega 56 non-blower as they can be had for around 590 prices, unless the 590 got cheaper.

He wants everything new as its his first time building a pc and he wants warenty coverage incase he screws something up

It all comes down to prise. The 1660;is slower than the 590 and the 1660 Ti is only a bit faster. Not worth of it's more money.

The 590 is significantly cheaper for me.

Yeah but the 1660ti is an extra 70 pounds for me and he is on a budget and needs the most performance for the lowest cost while still keeping everything new

Yeah you know I guess you are right.

In that case, as @valdyrgramr recommended, try find a Vega 56 for around an RX 590 price.

Then get a 580 or 1660 non ti. A good GPU cooler is important for longevity, stability and noise.

I just bought a used EVGA 1080ti. You just go to their website and put the serial number in and the warranty gets transferred to you as the new owner. I'm sure other companies do this as well.

 

Also, many warranties don't cover user error.

A nitro + RX 580 would not be far behind an Armor 590, might want to consider that instead

I personally just bought my brother a 580 Gaming x for his birthday, he's been on a 750Ti for awhile.

MSI Gaming X 590 is also solid. The XFX Fatboy is sadly crap. Asus Strix 590 also does well.
