NICE! One of these with a 144Hz 1080p Gsync screen = w1n! :cool:

In this climate it's a good price. It's just a shame i got similar performance with 3 games for £200 three years back. Still like i say in the current climate it's a good deal. These days it's almost like i stole that 290 pcs+

. Was from here as well.

Not a bad price though it is a shame in how the r9 290 launched 4 years ago for £300 something and was close to this in performance

This is exactly what I think when I see these cards and the prices. This card should be closer to half the price in my head to be considered a deal. It is like price for performance stopped improving in this price segment years ago

Not blaming Gibbo or anything, it is what it is, but it is sad to see.

yup seen the 290 go for £70 on the members market such a steal and still a cracking card

Great deal, whats the difference though in performance with this and a full size card (not a mini)

There is no difference in performance, the card is not cut down at all, its just smaller.

Ok, usually you sacrifice performance for size.
I am looking for a new card, I assume this would be good enough to stream some battlegrounds and battlefield?

Would love to go for a 1070 but just can't afford it at the moment.

Couldn't agree more.

You would only sacrifice performance if overclocking and not much if at all. The smaller cooler might restrict and even then i am not sure how much. The 1060 runs pretty cool as it's not a high power part. I doubt this card maxed out would feel any different to one that had a beefy cooler.

stream? you don't need a powerful GPU to stream anything. you need a decent internet connection and CPU power.

as for playing battlegrounds this is the perfect card to play it at 1080P.

So last stupid question before I buy it. I can stretch the budget to this card linked but which is the best card? Should I wait until the end of the month for this one?

About the same in performance.

x-st · 9 Oct 2017 at 17:22

Although the 580 is nowhere near as power efficient as the 1060.

It'll be louder than twin fan models due to only having a single fan to cool the chip, It's a shame we can't get a deal on Zotac's AMP model. I notice it's out of stock a lot, I would have picked it instead of the Asus when I bought my 1060. Same with my 1080 when I bought that I looked for the 1080 Amp but again it was out of stock

Better luck next time I suppose.

You do sacrifice some performance over a full-sized card due to the way GPU boost 3.0 works. Basically, the higher the temps (and this card will run hot) the lower the core clock speed, which means lower FPS in games. However, the difference is quite minor - less than 5fps.

It depends on the games you play and your PSU. Each card performs better in certain games, and as the RX 580 consumes more power it might require a PSU change (which would put the total upgrade cost much higher).

jigger · 9 Oct 2017 at 18:38

Hmm the RX580 seems a touch faster with a game... Quake any good these days?

imginy · 9 Oct 2017 at 18:47

Really wish there was something between the 1060 and 1070.

I'm a bit worried if I get this I won't be able to max out every game 1080p 60hz locked.

Could do with a deal on the 1070 gibbo please.

1070ti due for release soon. you will see deals happen just before that. in fact there have already been some at competitors.

also the 1060 won't max out every game far from it. however you will be able to play every game with respectable settings. more demanding games run on medium. well optimised games run at ultra.
