I personally go for gtx everyone I have the option anf as a have a hobby of building pc's when people specifically for a amd gpu and I tell them to put a gtx and they ask for explanation . Help plz

Well, if you can get RX 470/480/570/580 paired with a Free-Sync monitor then its a no brainer. Unless the prices are sky high vs GTX 1060.

I m not a amd gpu expert but the think the the Rx 570 is the closest in perfirman as compared to 1060 and it's just 12 bucks more but it has 8 GB vram while 1060 has 6  GB but Nvidia has way better compression tech so it will do the job of 8gb vram in 6 gb. I m really confused man

The compression helps with not having to use ridiculously big memory buses.

If you have 4GB worth of textures stored in VRAM it will take 4GB on each GTX or RX.

the 570 is slightly better than the 1060 3gb while the 580 is about equal to the 1060 6gb.

Nah gaming or streaming at tops. No video editing and basic photo shop that a 4 GB ram laptop can handle

Oh and 580 is about 23 buck more expensive that gtx 1060 6 gig

I would vote for a GTX then #GoGreen

if he has a freesync monitor then the 580 would be a better choice, but otherwise the 1060 will be fine.
