Hi guys,  I'm about to buy a new gpu and right I'm able to choose between RX 470,  RX 480,  GTX 970 and the GTX 1060.

 

I mostly only looking for a card that can hold up for a few years before needing to upgrade. And if I were to choose the RX series,  does the extra 4 gb worth to pay for? 

 

And if there is any other gpu suggestions,  please do share it with me.

 

Thank you and sorry for my English.

Unless the 1060 is outrageously expensive in your country there is no reason not to get it if you can afford it. If the RX 480 is cheaper, then it is a good alternative.

Yeah the 1060 Mini from Zotac is actually cheaper than RX 480 , should I go for the 1060 ?
