200$ dollar graphics cards

Hi Friends,

I am so confused to decide to choose which graphics card in 200$ mark should I choose.

The options for me are 

RX 570 4GB

RX 580 4GB

GTX 1060 3GB

 

I don't mind about freesync/gsync as I don't have a monitor with that. And I am planning to play my games in 1080p. So I don't think so we need more VRAM.

 

 

Also I found these unusual price for RX 570 4GB and RX 580 4GB in Amazon which is like 350$ dollars and more. Is it happening only to me or this is usual. As I never purchased a graphics card before.

 

RX 570 4GB

I've seen some rx 500 cards priced for 350 in the US for some reason. (They cost about that much retail in Norway :(). I think it has something to do with availability, though. Get a 580 if you can.

580 4GB is the best, but the extra money it would take to make it an 8GB 580 is likely to be worth it especially in the long run

It's mostly 8GB 580s with stock issues.

I'd go with the 4GB 580. Check r/BuildAPcSales also

580 4gb

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

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.

I would go for the RX 570, because it isn't weaker than the RX 580

Amazon's pricing can be really weird when stock is low. I have seen things like physics books that go for $15-$20 selling for $6000 on amazon when they only have one or two in stock. Wait a couple of weeks for the prices to stabilize and then grab an RX 580 4GB for around $200.

I would go for the rx 570 personaly because if you are looking for solid 60fps at 1080p with decent settings this is a great bang for the buck
