Gtx 1070 vs Rx 580 8GB

[JellyBurger676]

Hi Guys,

Im building a PC soon and dont know whether to buy the gtx 1070 or the RX 580 8GB.

 

Specifically its between the Asus ROG STRIX Gtx 1070 https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-Strix-GeForce-GDDR5-Graphics/dp/B01HMDRY7E/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=ROG+STRIX+1070&qid=1594743492&sr=8-1 

vs

or the Asus ROG STRIX Rx 580 8gb Overclocked edition or the Sapphire Nitro+ rx 580 (which of these two rx 580's would be better for performance and thermals)

Do not worry I am not paying amazon prices - £150 for the RX 580 8GB ASUS/ similar price or lower for the sapphire card or £180 for the gtx 1070.

 

I have a 1080p display and want nice 60fps on high. Has the rx 580 drivers make it much better now?

gtx 1070 is much better! About as good as the 1660 super which is much better than the 580
