Best budget card

Bayron

So I wanna buy best bang for the buck gpu, my budget 160 euros, currently there are not very big options to choose from(still expensive cars in my country) , my eye is on xfx rx 570 8gb(it's 150 euros), I know rx 580 would be better option, but cheapest is like 200+ euros, next options under 160 is gtx 1650 4gb, gtx 1650 super and that's basically it, there are no other options for new ones. 

 

And then there's used market, full of 1060, rx 580 and etc, but most are used for mining. 

 

So what's the best deal? Is any of those card some future proof? 

 

Tnx for help :)

rx 580 used would be my pick, just buy it from a reputable seller, on nvidia side, nothing less than a 1660 super,.

Used RX 580 

 

Or R9 fury if your power supply is up to it

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 needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

There are no good sellers in my region, messeged one about rx 580, he had a few cards, asked if they are mining used and he sad no, yeah right, but has many same gpus. 

 

Found one that is selling whit half an year warranty, but he has not yet answered me, I hope he still has it. 

 

My goal is 1080p gaming, not higher, and mostly cs go

700w doesn’t mean that psu is good tbh, if you have some low quality, or no name brand psu it may not handle well higher tier cards

I’d say a 1650 Super if it’s the same price as a 580. They perform roughly the same but the 1650 Super is significantly newer and will receive more updates, consumes less power and will have less fiddly drivers.

Who needs fancy graphics and high resolutions when you can get a 60 FPS frame rate on iGPUs?

There is still good sources of used or unboxed, or refurbished products out there at good prices. these options will give you half decent performance at a reasonable price.

you have to do your homework and read reviews / check things out, like buying used from ebay. or sometimes you can find local computer hardware stores advertise on ebay or other websites that have feedback and guarantee on products.

i bought a used 1070ti super clocked EVGA gpu from ebay and it works perfectly fine, no problems or issues.  

like i said do your homework first and you should be able to get a RX 580 or something similar.

Why not the 1650 Super? It's a little faster than the 580 and significantly faster than the 570. 4GB VRAM sucks for sure, but not like a 570 is ever likely to run games well that need 6-8GB anyways.

RX 580 = GTX 1650 Super > RX 570 > GTX 1650

 

So what you get really depends on local prices and availability, but they're all fairly good except GTX 1650. GTX 1650 is trash.

 

You could also look at used RX 470/570 or RX 480/580.

Not in my country, font have ebay, no Amazon, mostly fb market place, 1 website for used stuff, and that's basically it, all stores that sell cards are totally overpriced. So my only options are new or risk on fb market.

Yeah, I checked benchmarks and it a bit slower than 580 but it's cheaper to get(at least new)

can't you buy from any components store, most sell / ship internationally,  try looking at open boxed or refurbished. 

there is so many options for buying and paying for products, i am sure you will be able to find a good deal, have you looked at newegg? what country are you in / need shipping to?

International shipping isn’t cheap at all, so it’s not an easy choice.

This is very true but not impossible, maybe better deal than buying from your own country.

shipping is expensive now, all i can suggest is you will have to work hard, save up and treat yourself to a GPU you can afford with the shipping. 

I work a min of 6 days a week, just to keep the bills away. i want to also upgrade my CPU & GPU but will wait because there is more important things in life that come first.
