Reccomendation on Graphics Card

Dragonuser2000

So I was planning on Asus - Radeon RX 580 8GB DUAL Video Card but recently I found XFX - Radeon RX 580 8GB GTS Black Video Card that would fit the theme of my build a bit better however it's like 40 bucks more. There seems to be a couple of differences but they seem similar since they are both Radeon RX 580. I plan on using MSI - X470 GAMING PLUS ATX AM4 Motherboard with a AMD - Ryzen 5 2600 3.4GHz 6-Core Processor. This will be my first build so any help would be nice thanks. I'm trying to decide which one I should be using, from what I can tell they both seem to be good video cards. 

 

Edit I have found a third one which looks the same and is in between the two:

Any 580 will do. I prefer the msi gaming x (one of the better coolers). Though I do think xfx is better than asus's offer in terms of their cooler; core edition having higher clocks i believe. I love AMD, but a 1070 is probably more cost effective since (at least normal prices I've seen) are still crazy. just remember 580s offer little in the realm of overclocking. regardless, you'll be getting a great graphics card if the 580 is what you're aiming for. My first good gpu was a 480 4gb and that thing was a damn champion.

I see, I already placed my order so there's not much I can do about it. I do appreciate your thought though I did get the RFX and I'm glad that the 580 is at least great. I'm only a novice gamer so I probably won't be too concerned about not getting the most out of overclocking.Plus this one was red/black which really went with the theme so I really like it. Thanks again for your comment it gave me a boost of confidence.
