XFX RX 590 Fatboy or Sapphire RX 590 Nitro+?

[IproZ]

I RMA'd my RX 580 and I can get either of the two cards, but the Fatboy is available right now and the sapphire one hasn't been available for the past 3 weeks and who knows for how long. Would it be worth the wait for the sapphire or do I just get the fatboy?

Sapphire make very good cards with fantastic coolers. They are the EVGA equivalent of Nvidia GPUs, but of course that is subjective.

 

GPUs are typically a long term thing, so I would recommend waiting.

Yeah, prices were bad back in january when I got the 580 and 590s were not even available. Also there's an Asrock 590 also available. I RMA'd their 580 which was quite loud and was hitting 85°C on a hot day, don't know if the 590 cooler is much better
