I am confused between gtx 1060 6gb, RX 480 4gb or RX 470 8gb

Pricing is not a factor . I am aware of the price hikes. I just need to know which one of the above three cards is good in performance. I will be mostly playing GTA V online at high settings.

From these 3 the GTX 1060 6GB will perform best in GTA V, especially if you enable MFAA in NVIDIA Control Panel to override MSAA for better performance.

 

I played with GTX 1060 6GB overclocked at 1440p Ultra + maxed out advanced settings + x2MFAA + TXAA at around 50FPS in Online.

Is the 1060 better than RX 580 4gb?

Depends on game. The 580 is a bit better overall but then you would sacrifice 2GB of VRAM.

 

The 580 8GB is a clear winner over GTX 1060 6GB.

the RX 480/ RX 580 is the stronger overall card but its pretty close to the 1060 6GB and trades blows with it. in GTA V i dont know which card comes out on top so go look at some benchmark videos or something off that at the resolution you want to play at(1080p/1440p) and see how they preform comparativly. the 470 is great value but it gets beaten by both the other cards.

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...

"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
