RX 580

Pythosa

Looking at the 580 and wondering is there much point at paying the a lot extra for the extra 4GB between the 4gb and 8gb? Looking at gaming 1080p on games such as Skyrim, witcher 3, PUBG, Battlefront 2, Battlefield 1

If you can find any in stock, get the RX5808GB, then sell it for $400-$450 and buy a GTX 1070.

You may want to get a 1060 6GB, because miners are buying up all of the 580s, so even if you can find one available, it will cost $400-500

I found a 4gb one at £200 and an 8gb one at £226/£235. Should I stick with the 4gb cause that's in stock and the 8gb is currently in restock (27/6/17 or the next few days but no guarantee on whether I will be able to snag it)

On Craigslist if you are in the US. Or just state your country and someone will probs know where to sell locally.

Do what @Zando Bob suggested, get it and sell it to miners and then you will be able to afford a 1070 :D
