I've been kinda eyeing around a bit the last couple days at an upgrade from my R9 280X 3gb card. I have come across some seemingly decent to good deals on Newegg including an RX570 8gb card for $160 after rebate an some RX580 4gb cards in the same price range, around $200. I checked a few 1060 6gb cards but none cracked the $200 barrier that I saw. I'd like to return to team blue but for a casual gamer, pricing seems to be stopping me so I have stuck with the value orientated team red.
I currently have 2 1920x1200 monitors so my gaming is 1080p but of course, the more power/bang for the buck I can get the better as eventually higher res monitors will land on my desktop.
So would a 570/580 be a worthwhile, noticeable upgrade from my 280x? Are there any other cards out there you guys could recommend I check out?
My only requirements are more than 3gb of RAM (duh these days) and it be around, or preferably, under $200. Thanks gents!
