I just found these two graphics cards at a very reasonable price and I want to know which one is better, help me! Justify your vote!
1- Sapphire Pulse RX 580 8GB http://pulse.sapphiretech.com/en/580-8.html
2- MSI Armor RX 580 8GB https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/Radeon-RX-580-ARMOR-8G-OC.html#hero-overview.
Both cost exactly the same at the local store where I found them...

my bad, the 580 pulse actiually isnt shit. get the pulse

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Apparently, Sapphire's got the lead on your votes. By the way, I only have a D-Sub monitor, do HDMI to D-Sub adapters work with graphics cards?

The newer MSI Armor coolers are known to be insufficient...
