RX 570 vs GTX 1050Ti

[emerald_piggy]

I have $170 saved up so I can buy a gpu. But I was wondering which is better a new 1050ti or a used rx 570? or should I save a little extra and go with a 570 8gb or an rx 580 4gb?

rx570 is on par with 1060.

Rx 570 is on par with the 1060 3GB.

 

I suggest you save up for an RX 580 8GB as 4GB of Vram is on the edge of its lifespan. And 3GB on the 1060 3GB is too little in todays games

Yeah get the 580 8gb

Look for RX 580 in both memory configurations and tell us the price. If they cost much more, than just get the 570 4gb. Comtrary to what others say, I think 4GB VRAM is already enough for a card meant for 1080p high settings. Sure even higher settings will need more VRAM, but you'll run out of compute power from the GPU in the case anyway. Dont need more VRAM.

From what ive heard other experience is that 4GB is not enough in all titles. Currently i believe there are a handful of titles going beyond 4GB.

I havent seen that myself, aside from console ports with bad optimization. We call them poorly optimized for a reason.

the rx 580 4gb used is about $190 or $180 if you can get lucky or $230 new. The rx 580 8gb is $215 used, $200 if you win an auction or $270 new.

How many games are there that require 8gb ram and can be run decently with a 570?

 What resolution do you play on and what's the rest of your specs ? 

 

Generally speaking a 8gb would be a better resell

Pretty much all of them atm. Though its more of a concerb with future games

RX 580 4GB will be my choice. Maybe new ones instead since used cards is likely to be used for crypto mining (i.e. on full blast 24/7 for months, albeit with reduced power limits so not as fast as it could have been)

 

8GB cards are very likely to be mined, definitely no.
