RX 460 is better

 

Although might want to wait for the RX 560, but probably nit since sellers want to get rid of RX 460 stock and you'll get good deals.

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Will people that have Rx 460 actually upgrade to 560 tho? Anyways Ill either buy the sapphire Oc 460 for 80-90$ or a 1050 for the same price :) tnx for the help guys.

I'd take the 960 because 10$ is not a lot of money to me personally and I particularly like blower cards.
