I have what seems to me to be a stupid question. Do they make an AMD RX480 or RX580 mini? And is it worth it? What do they cost? I could get a reference design for cheap, but I struggle fitting a Twin Frozr 1050 Ti in my case, as it interferes with some of my cables. I see that it nearly directly compares to a 1060, and the 580s are pretty cheap now. Around 200.

Dunno about AMD, but Nvidia does! https://pcpartpicker.com/product/tJyxFT/evga-geforce-gtx-1060-6gb-sc-gaming-video-card-06g-p4-6163-kr

 

(I'm assuming youre asking about AMD because you have a freesync monitor though or something)

Get the reference one and throw an aio on it. the pcb itself is smaller than your dick

13700k, 3070, 32GB@3200

Pascal is more efficient than Polaris, so usually mini cards are pascal based.

maybe get a 1060 mini? more expensive, but also more mini.

No FreeSync. Just want to get a cheap, but good GPU. Plus, I want to see which brand I prefer. I used to rock an HD7570 back in the day, but hated the software that came with it. I might like the new stuff. So I want to switch to AMD for GPUs.

The PCB is what interferes with my cables. It was early in the morning and forgot to mention that.

If for some reason you want an ITX card for a Freesync display, there is the RX 570 Pulse ITX, or the older but still more powerful R9 Nano

But if no Freesync display, get an ITX GTX 1060 

RX 570 is a slight bump up from my 1050 Ti. And no FreeSync monitor. Just want to try a new monitor. And I seen from a few videos that the RX580 does better in some games than the GTX 1060. But that is the 3GB model, which is in my price range. Along with the 4GB RX580.

R9 Nano if one is on sale or second hand maybe. (better than RX 580 almost same power consumption)

 

RX 570 Pulse from Sapphire is a mini variant.
