Great price for the RX580 8GB. I have one of these from a TechFast build I purchased a few months ago. Runs 1080p 60FPS at NO issues on Ultra settings, can run 1440p at 60FPS for some older titles at Medium settings. No issues for eSports titles at high settings.

    RX 580 8GB for $191.20 That's an all time low.

    Cheapest on static ice is $288.82

      Thank science the mining boom is over

    • CoronavirusVaccine on 26/04/2019 - 16:47

      Now that's a reasonable price to weigh against waiting for Navi!

    • N1NJ4W4RR10R on 26/04/2019 - 17:36

      Yeah, hell of a price. This is 570 range.

      How can they list it on eBay as "brand new" when the card has been used for mining? Surely they should list it as Refurbished

      • Viospeed on 26/04/2019 - 19:59
        +1

        I would assume it is brand new. The RX 580 card was in high demand for mining as it was cheap and mined ethereum well.

      • N1NJ4W4RR10R on 26/04/2019 - 21:33

        It's just a Biostar buzzword as far as I can tell, like GAMING.

      • Calvinlei1231 on 26/04/2019 - 22:15

        i think they mean the card is suggested for mining.

    • OKJoe on 26/04/2019 - 20:18

      Thanks mate! Just bought one and waiting for delivery!

  • prawnhead on 26/04/2019 - 16:23

    Silly question, does this card compatible with Asrock z68 extreme4 gen3 motherboard??

    • Merlict on 26/04/2019 - 16:32

      Sure, see no reason why it wouldn't be.

    • dcep on 26/04/2019 - 16:40

      check psu for 8pin supply

      check cpu for bottlenecking

      • prawnhead on 26/04/2019 - 16:49

        I have i5 2500k, 8g ram. Does it work?

        • dcep on 26/04/2019 - 16:53
          +3

          yes that's good enough

          what about power supply ? do you see any 8pin plug cable dangling around

          • prawnhead on 26/04/2019 - 17:00

            @dcep: I have 650W power and I am sure i have a 8pin plug. My GTX 580 stop working few months ago so I am contemplating whether I should get a whole system ( https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/452470 )or just get this card and stick around for 2 more years. Any suggestions??

              +1

              @prawnhead: I suggest waiting for zen 2 and navi. You survived without a gtx 580 thus far, I see why not you can wait some more months.

            • N1NJ4W4RR10R on 26/04/2019 - 17:38
              +7

              @prawnhead: I'd advise just getting this and waiting a bit to upgrade the whole pc personally. Your other parts should still be capable for at least another year.

              I'd normally just recommend a 570, but this is a stupid good price (in the 570 price range).

    • StuBalls on 26/04/2019 - 17:38

      I have the same cpu, same motherboard, same wattage PSU as you with an RX 580 and it runs well.
      I plan to upgrade to 3rd gen Ryzen and keep the RX580, coz it does any game Max settings at FHD.

    • cheap-sk8 on 26/04/2019 - 21:50

      i've been told that almost all motherboards are compatible with any graphics card, past maybe 1998.

    • flame21 on 27/04/2019 - 08:37

      Hi,

      Of course Zen 2 will be good, but your CPU is special enough to overclock to 4.x GHz.

      You're very lucky that your CPU and Z Motherboard should allow you to easily overclock to 4.5G or even higher.The CPU won't be the bottlenack in all current games.

      I'm using i7 3770(no K) and asrock z75, OC to 4.2-4.3G, and I'm getting this card.

      If you're a more serious gamer maybe consider nv 2060, but it's $500+. Otherwise you can get this card, and should be good for gaming in the future 1-2 years.

  • corbz on 26/04/2019 - 17:20

    What does it mean by mining card? Can I use this normally?

    • Viper8 on 26/04/2019 - 17:26
      +2

      Normally means reduced warranty and a bare-bones box without the marketing imagery on the outside and support media and docs on the inside.

      • N1NJ4W4RR10R on 26/04/2019 - 17:38
        +1

        Note that this could also merely be a "buzzword".

          Yeah it's a Biostar buzzword

      • garage sale on 26/04/2019 - 20:06

        Firmware on some mining cards was different to retail cards …

    • Rizzler on 26/04/2019 - 20:41

      Yes, it can still run pornhub.

  • Terencee on 26/04/2019 - 17:31

    But can it run crysis at 60fps

    This or an RTX 2060?

    • KutchAu on 26/04/2019 - 17:57
      +3

      Need to know a lot more information about your gaming habits / intended use, the two cards are pretty much in different leagues and with that, price ranges.

      To be honest for e-sports / older titles this is probably good for gaming at 1440p, new AAA titles at 1080p. 2060 is another step up which will push you in the 60fps+ 1440p AAA title direction.

    • tianyujojo on 26/04/2019 - 17:58

      RTX2060

    • cashews on 26/04/2019 - 18:02

      I've got both, depends on what resolution/settings you want.

    • Merlict on 26/04/2019 - 18:19

      $190 or $500ish, not very comparable

    • Agret on 26/04/2019 - 19:20

      That's like asking Nokia 3.1 or Samsung Galaxy S10. Totally different price point and target market.

  • Briefcase Mong on 26/04/2019 - 18:07

    Is it worth buying 2 for crossfire ?

    • Merlict on 26/04/2019 - 18:20
      +10

      Imo no. Crossfire / SLI is pretty buggy and poorly supported these days, my experience was poor.

      I've got two RX570s and have barely used crossfire. Support isn't there although when it is the performance is amazing. I've played Strange Brigade at 4k 60fps ultra setting with no issues. Better to buy a 1660Ti or 2060 if you're willing to spend $400+.

    • Agret on 26/04/2019 - 19:21

      No, spend the money on a 2060 instead.

  • jayz on 26/04/2019 - 18:30

  • beyondparadigms on 26/04/2019 - 19:06

    This may well be an upgrade on the $45 dollar Gigabyte GT 710 I ordered yesterday… but doesn't seem worth to just play indie games and watch occasionally 1080p videos.

  • pacificstorm on 26/04/2019 - 19:23

    With this card, will I see marked improvements over my current Gigabyte 680 windforce like higher fps in ultra settings? Thanks.

  • Cave Fire on 26/04/2019 - 19:31

    the mining card means it has less features and maybe warranty too. The last deal was a $180 odd card that only had two DVI ports as outputs for example.

    • N1NJ4W4RR10R on 26/04/2019 - 21:36

      Seemingly just biostars choice of buzzword. Comes with the standard array of ports, can't find anything that says the warranty is lesser

  • asdffdsa on 26/04/2019 - 19:53

    Should I bother upgrading my 1050ti to this or is it too marginal?

    • asdffdsa on 26/04/2019 - 20:19

      And does anyone know the dimensions of the card?

    • Yuri Lowell on 26/04/2019 - 23:07

      About 40% more performance than 1050Ti and these cards are pretty big, off the top of my head its around 25cm long with dual pci slot design.

  • Zylam Marex on 26/04/2019 - 20:17

    Wow what a deal, I thought a RX570 at 190 was a good deal a few months ago and now this. Wish I'd waited!

    This card in most of the reviews, was only slightly better than 1060 6GB - but hotter and taking more power (almost double) compare to Nv 1060.
    Should we wait for 1660/1660Ti/2060 to have a special price, or Navi?

    This card would have been pretty good for Xplane I should have bought it because it has so much memory but am wary of non Nvidia cards because of driver issues. Either way the longer I hold off upgrading the better. Maybe able to find a 1070 GTX at similar price in a few months.
