New GPU, what's the best bang for the buck?

[Slazyel]

Hi Guys, i'm from Brazil and the prices here are a little bit overpriced, but still i have to choose a new GPU among those below. So, with that in mind, what gpu do you guys think it's the best bang for the buck?

 

RX 470 4GB Powercolor Red Dragon - $256

RX 480 4GB MSI Armor - $272

Gtx1060 6GB Galax OC - $327

RX 480 8GB Power Color Red Devil - $352

RX 480 8GB (Better brands) - $380 +

 

 

[stealth80]

get the cheapest non reference 8gb 480, aka the powercolor

[Elehat]

Imo it's MSI 480 4GB for $272

[Space Reptile]

480 4gb armor , not the best 480 , but at almost 100$ cheaper definitely the better bang for buck out of all the cards

[MrPants_]

For 1080p i'd totally go with the RX 480 4GB

[Slazyel]

Yes, i will play at 1080p. I was close to get the 1060, what do you guys think?

[Andrew Sh]

If you're looking for 1080p GPU then check price of 1050ti too. Out of your list I'd go for the 480 unless you can find a cheaper gtx 1060. I have a 480 and works really well.

[Slazyel]

1050ti is close in price to the rx 470 here.

$80 not worth it over the 4gb MSI. The performance difference is like 2-3℅ at most if you're playin a vram hungry game.

Hold on a few weeks i know it's gonna kill ya ,wanting it now now. but saving that little extra for a 1070 my god you will have blissful dreams man. lol srs tho.

[SCHISCHKA]

the EVGA cards were giving pretty good bangs for a while until they fix them

I think maybe a 1070 is a bit overkill for 1080p at 60fps =/

Well if the deals are similar you can get a 8gb for the price of a 4gb at the moment on pacpartpicker. also OP never stated what resolution.

 

480 8gb MSI Armour - $219

And what about the GTX 1060 6GB for $55 more?

Sadly there's nothing better here. I'm playing at 1080p 60hz

That would be my second choice. If you really value all the extra Nvdia stuff then that wouldn't be bad either.

it ain´t if you wanna rock ultras while having decent future-proof. If saving the extra cash for the cheapest 1070 you can find is a possibility at all, it would certainly be worth it.

 

If not just do what has been said already, get the cheapest 8gb rx 480 you can find.

Well I'm working based on what op found. He did state that prices in Brazil are higher, as evident with the cheap power color being so expensive. MSI GPUs cost more so he would pay well over $300 for it, so again, not worth it.

These are 1080p GPUs so any higher resolution is not worth it. 

Ultra 1080p > med 1440p.

4gb is easily enough at 1080p

Hey OP. I'm from Brazil too.

 

What websites are you using to find the GPUs? I want to know if you forgot something so I can help you!

Nice! I'm using Pichau, Megamamute and Balão da Informática as reference. The others are way too expensive.

Cool. Those are good websites. I got a 1080 on Terabyteshop in the last Black Friday. They are not much known but their prices are awesome! Just don't go to Kabum, those guys never update the GPU prices. Not even on Black Friday... Greedy as fuck.

Balão da Informatica is kinda dead unfortunately  my first build I got everything from them.

Something I could recommend is for you to wait a little. In the end of February and the entire March the prices on Hardware drops quite a bit in our country. 

 

Right now I was looking for an samsung 850 SSD and the prices were amped up R$100 on just two weeks...

I know, but you have to admit that the gtx 1060 6gb will hardly drop price. It's r$1000 at Balão da Informatica. And has a good resell price if i want to change the card this year or next year.

Yeah, their prices are great right now. But their website freaking sucks.

 

Good to know at least they are at least trying to go back to the market...

Kabum is the best though.

They had a EVGA GTX 1070 Superclocked for R$ 1899,99 not far too long ago.
