I see the MSI RX 470 8GB is only 239.99 and the 4GB is 199.99

 

I really wanted to get the RX 480 but whatever, I play at 2560x1080, So basically 2k res. Which card would you get. Yes I know I would get a bottleneck but I don't care because I can adapt and am used to bottlenecks

Why would you buy a 470 if you can afford a 480?

 

Or why make this post at all if you can't afford a 480?

How about selling it instead of ruining it?
