RX 460

[cadd]

So i was checking out Canada Computers yesterday and i saw the rx 460 and 750ti next to each other, the rx 460 being 160$ for 2gb and 190 for 4gb, i was going to get a 750ti for Christmas until i looked up benchmarks for rx 460 vs  750ti, and apparently its ~30% more powerful in most games, so will the price drop on it by christmas? I waws going to get a cheap 750ti on sale at newegg for around 100-120$ CAD, but i dont mind spending 30-40$ more on the rx 460 if the price drops. 

 

my current rig is: 

g3258 @ 4.5ghz 1.4v 

gtx 550ti

8gb ddr3 ram

h81m-p33 mobo
evga 430w psu

The RX460 is much newer and more powerfull, not only due to a newer arcitecture. It is a good fit for your system

mainly CS:GO Overwatch, Dayz, H1Z1 and some other survival games, but i think im going to get 4gb just for games in the future. and do u mean 2 gb when u said "rx 460 to be held back by 4gigs"

the 460 is weaker than a gtx950 so it will likely not be that much better than a 750ti in actuality
