I actually misread the price. The 4Gb RX 460 starts at 159€. Thats f'ed up. :(

 

Will the 2Gb RX 460 be sufficent for some time? Even if it's just "World of Warcraft"?

Will be sufficient for 5 years at least for that game. 

So I have 2 PCs that need a GPU upgrade.

 

One runs with a fx-6300 and is mainly used for World of Warcraft,

the other runs an i3-6100 and will be used for all kinds of games.

 

My budget is limited to 320€ (germany) so my guess would be:

WoW PC: GTX 950/ RX 460 4Gb (both around 150€)

All stuff PC: GTX 960 / R9 380X (both around 200€)

 

But that is a little over budget.

 

Any better ideas / suggestions?

RX 460  should be fine for that WoW PC, how much is left for the other card after you get that 460?

Hey, forgot to add the prices, corrected that. .)

The RX 460 4Gb and  GTX 950 both start around 150€ and the R9 380x and GTX 960 are around 200€

How much is RX480 or RX470 there?

If i were to choose between GTX 960 or R9 380X then R9 380X is simply superior.

Check the pricing for RX480 and RX470 first, if it's within your budget, get either of those 2, they are better than R9 380X.

rx 460 for the low end pc ( it costs less than the 950 ) 

rx 480 for the mid range pc ( as 1060 is a bit expensive ) ,If you can find the 4gb version otherwise get the rx 470 ( performs as well as a gtx 970 )

AMD Ryzen R7 1700 (3.8ghz) w/ NH-D14, EVGA RTX 2080 XC (stock), 4*4GB DDR4 3000MT/s RAM, Gigabyte AB350-Gaming-3 MB, CX750M PSU, 1.5TB SDD + 7TB HDD, Phanteks enthoo pro case

the RX 470 4GB (available) is 219, the RX 480 (only 8Gb) is 289.

 

I'm trying to fit the RX 460 + RX 470 in the budget right now, that comes pretty close and both have 4Gb RAM.

If you can get RX460 + RX470 then do that.

It will make you a happy gamer.

Guess so. 

I'll wait for some days if prices settle a bit and then see again if 4Gb is more attractive. Otherwise I'll go with that. 
Thanks for your help @all.
