Hi,

 

Please help me choose between these two graphics cards for 1080p gaming experience, they are both priced the same:

Asus Phoenix Gtx 1060 3Gb 

Asus Rog Strix Rx 570 Oc 4Gb

 

Current specs:

CPU: i5 8400

RAM : 8GB 2666mHz

Kingstom SSD A400 240GB

 

I've a Samsung monitor with FreeSync support if that makes sense.

 

Thanks

The RX 570 has a very slight lead in gaming performance, and unless you love nvenc and shadowplay and stuff, that extra 1GB of vram comes in mighty handy.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Go with RX 570

 

1060 may be a tad faster on some games, but the 3 GB of memory may be a limitation for other games. 4 GB of memory is just fine for playing at 1080p high quality graphical settings ... 8 GB would have helped a tiny bit but the processor on the RX 570 would not benefit much from the extra 4 GB... so it's just right.

 

The 1060 with 3 GB .. 3GB is too little imho.

If you have no need to record or do streaming, get the RX 570. Polaris has terrible hardware encoder so you need the 1060 3gb for those things

It's not terrible. Not as good as NVenc but using OBS, it's fine for most people.
