in the land of unavailable $1000+ GPU's this looks to be a good bang for buck 1080p GPU with 8GB ram (and RGB).

Likewise
i got the RX470 4GB version of this card 5 years ago on release day for $270AU :) and I'm still using it today
I will be upgrading it to whatever 120W-150 RDNA2 card comes out next year.
I bought this few weeks ago when was on sale, same price. Very nice price….
Good price, most Strix cards are pretty highly rated
Usually the most expensive out of all the cards in the same model number for good reason.
Too bad EVGA only makes KingPin models of the dopest cards.
A KingPin XXXtreme watercooled version of a 1030 would be pretty funny.
For the 8GB version, this is a pretty good price
Good find OP :)
bruh i bought a 1650 super for $220 a month ago :/
Hand in your ozBargain licence immediately
Isn't the 1650 Super @ $219 considered a good deal? https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/569096
It's $229 now but I'm still considering it.People on that thread were saying it's comparable to RX580 but way more power efficient.
Yeah still better value than this deal IMO. Although it is only a Galax with no backplate.
I bought a watercooled Aorus 1080ti for $600 a month ago….
honestly, that's not bad, could sell it for $550 without too much issue I think. I sold the 1080 ti xtreme 2 weeks ago for $550
The 1080ti beats out a 2070s right?
@OssieA: Not much in it, depends on game https://www.techspot.com/review/1907-geforce-1080-ti-vs-rtx-…
I bought a EVGA nVidia GeForce GTX 1070 SC Gaming ACX 3.0 8GB GDDR5 Graphics Video Card 12th October 2016 for A$544… they even sent me some extra/free heat pads I had to apply so the card wouldn't burn up.
Good, that's a much better card than the 570, even slightly better than the 580.
Be glad you did, that's a better value deal than this.
Also same amount of VRAM as a $1000 GPU.
And my car has the same number of wheels as a Ferrari, and equally useful stat - both have enough wheels to not be the limiting factor.
Yeah but VRAM ain't wheels, it's displacement.
I don't understand enough about video cards or cars to understand the comparison.
@misterpotatomato: VRAM is the cornstarch in potato gems. You need it to be fluffy inside, but if your potato is no good then it won't matter how much cornstarch you stuff inside the potato gem.
Conversely if you had low amounts of starch but good potato in a potato gem - it would still be tasty but you would know something isn't right, the lack of starch is limiting how good the potato gem can be. It won't be the best performing potato gem it can be, but it will work and likely we will see (possibly planned) revisions with more starch later.
The right amount of starch for how good your potato is, is what you are after misterpotatomao.
@studentl0an: Your specialty areas of knowledge are cars and potato gems? Are you the nerdy guy from The Chase?
It's really not. More VRAM is not more power. If you don't have the GPU power to utilize the VRAM in a sane amount of time it's … useless. You can shove bigger and bigger textures and more and more complex geometries into VRAM but if you don't have the cycles to get through rendering a frame, you're SOL.
More VRAM is more like a stronger drive train. If you're not stressing the drive train it aint gonna do shit.
Just like adding more RAM to a computer ain't gonna do shit if you already had more than you needed.
Or adding wheels to a car.
VRAM is a limiting factor, if you hit the limit you've got issues. If you're inside the limit you're fine. Put too much power through a drive trian, it pops, stay inside the limit, you're fine.
@studentl0an: Displacement is absolutely one of the factors in determining the power a piston produces. Its not "just displacement"
For reference: https://mycourses.aalto.fi/pluginfile.php/637203/mod_folder/…
"Just displacement"…..?
@Joker042: This isn't the 1950's anymore gramps, there's tens if not hundreds of variables more important than 'displacement' in producing power or being an indication of power.
@studentl0an: Mate, there may be other factors, but increased displacement increases power unless you majorly screw the pooch or come up against material limitations.
Go back to reading Muscle Car Weekly.
You know as much about mechanical engineering as you know about graphics cards.
@Joker042: Ok, boomer. You are free to increase the volume of your engines as your indication of power while I'll stick with what every single internal combustion development team has done for every single internal combustion engine the last 50 years - improving power and efficiency while DECREASING displacement.
@Joker042: Look, we can be nasty to each other till the cows come home. You could have just left my comment about VRAM being displacement as is without downvoting it and then being pedantic (while still being incorrect). Did it ever occur to you that because we are pulling analogies out of our arses that VRAM could be argued to be both a stronger drive train and/or an increase in displacement? Or did you just want to downvote and give your opinion why my comment was wrong?
Like I'm sure as a car guy you've had this argument before with people who say there's no replacement for displacement? Like I'm certain you don't actually hold that view, but you've been backed into a corner where you're now going to defend displacement as an indication of power?
It's just strange is all, I think it would have been best for everyone if you would have just let me say VRAM is displacement rather than wheels (cause every god damn car has 4) and not downvoted my comment and tell me why in your opinion it's wrong.
@studentl0an: Nah mate, you downvote comments because they're stupid and wrong, which is why I've continuted to downvote your inane continuations as well.
@Joker042: I’m afraid he’s right. Displacement no longer has the bearing it used to and is often an inhibition to increased power in a modern engine due to increased mass. Look at the recent history of Motorsport where small displacement, high power engines keep getting banned from classes because they make all the popular big displacement muscle cars look like they are standing still.
@roller: And you don't think that has to do with the weight power tradeoff? That's always been a thing, increasing the weight of the engine increases the amount of mass you need to accelerate. That doesn't mean the engine is producing more power, it means its power to weight ratio is better.
There's a reason mining trucks don't use small engines. There's a reason trains don't use small engines. It ain't rocket science.
@Joker042: As forced induction and monitoring/emissions efficiencies get better, both mining trucks and trains use much smaller, yet more powerful and more efficient engines (because technology) than they did many years ago - and that trend is continuing. The same happens to every single engine in the history of engines, from trains to space going rockets. I bet your heels have a lot of weight behind them to dig in, because you ain't budging on a very stupid hill to die on.
Displacement is for dumb old people who don't like speed and are adverse to technology. It's why I see so many fat old men on Vtwin bikes when a straigh-4 that has 1/4 the displacement massacres them. But yeah it's got torque to move their morbidly obese asses to the nearest KFC and they think it's cool cause it's loud and big, which at the end of the day is what people who believe displacement is more important than technology care about - being slow, fat, loud and inefficient, just like their engines.
tempted to just get some thing like this until next year when the next gen GPU's might be affordable .. i totally blew my build budget getting the 5600X on launch .. lol aside from having next to no chance at the new Radeon GPU's (stock wise)they wont be cheap either…
why did you get the X version anyway?
Looks like there are no non-X models this time around, at least so far. Someone correct me if I'm wrong…
as sensys said.. no non X .. maybe next year they'll release it (i'm pretty sure they will)… but after buying bits over the coarse of now 11 months i said stuff it… i just dont think the GPU situation is going to improve much this year.. or even early next.
Should I just settle with this budget card or wait for 3080 Ti? I mostly use my rig to play free games from Epic and casual WoW.
You do know there is a huge I mean huge differences between the 2, right?
Hyundai or Bugatti…
Such a tricky decision!!
I assume that's why he labelled this as the "budget card"
Sounds like this card will fit you needs above and beyond anyway. If you accept some of those free epic games to be at low - med settings.
Maybe you'll need a 3080 only when Cyberpunk VR comes out in 2077 :P
Depends, what is your CPU? If you are fine with 1080p60fps on most newer games at low-medium settings that might be fine, as long as you aren't expecting to play games like RDR2 or Cyberpunk on decent settings. But the 3080ti is literally like 4-5x faster than the 570, not really on the same level and aren't really marketed to the same people.
This card won't run Crysis.
Much difference between this and RX470?
About 5-10% difference I think I've heard, likewise the 480 to 580.
I am in between buying this one now or waiting for black friday sale to see if there will be some good deals for the similar range cards like this one, RX 580, 1650, 1660 etc.
Were there any good deals for graphics cards in the past black friday sales? Is it worth waiting for another 3 weeks?
In the exact same situation….
1660 Super for $280 and I bite!
I'm also tossing up whether to wait for Black Friday to get my 1660 Super
I'm still on an old 7950 and a 290x in my 2 machines, but I only really play csgo these days. Is it worth it?
No it's it's about the same GPU power as the 290x. It just uses about half the watts to do it.
Pretty much.
If its just CSGO, I'd increase the power limit and overclock it mildly with the 7950 even and you're set.
My 7950s did very well back in the day but they were severely limited by the stock BIOS'
Does it support 4K, H265 and HDR?
Is it better than GTX 670, my current graphic card
thank you.
regards
Yes, yes, yes, and yes.
But you'll need an (expensive) HDR capable monitor to get real HDR. You'll also struggle to play games in 4K on it, unless it's League.
My ROG rx580 still going strong after 2 years. I won't upgrade for another year I think but most probably end up getting the 5600xt.
good for hackintosh
can i run 2 4k monitors at 60fps? thanks
edit: not for gaming
This or 1650 super??
1650 super is a fair bit faster but a bit more expensive, depends on your needs.
I don’t get why people compare the 1650S to this, the 1650S is faster than the RX580…
The 1650S is more comparable to the 5500XTBecause this is $192 shipped, while the 1650S was very recently $219 shipped. So it's fair to compare them cost wise. Spec wise, the 1650S is much better, and almost everyone says it's worth the extra $27 (if it comes back on sale, now it's $37 more).
Will it work in Dell Optiplex 9020 MT without replacing the PSU?
pretty sure PSU not enough and optiplex motherboard wont support either the card.
If it's 250+ W and 80 plus rated it's fine
The one I have is a 350W preinstalled PSU.
Will the 570 run most games at ultra settings at 1080p without any problems? ( I know the 580 does just fine)
I have a 4GB RX570 in my sons PC, it runs recent games like BF5 and battlefront2 at 80-100FPS at 1080p,
I had the 570, not Ultra anymore, High 1080p/60 for this year.
High/Med next year.
Med/Low for 2022.
I'd still recommend at least 1060 (6gb) card for upgrade these days. I have both and have to say you can actually feel the night and day difference..
Rx 570 is on par with a 1060..
It's only on par with the 1060 3GB, the 6GB is comparable to a 580.
Fair enough.. but the 580 beats the 1060 6gb
Same Boat, I am on 1060 3G. bought it for 220, 3years ago.
Currently have a 280x and a 4590 CPU is this worth the upgrade to max out my CPU? not looking to upgrade anything else atm. Use a Dell 1440p monitor @ 60. Light work and occasional games.
yes this will be good upgrade, if you wanted to spend more then i would only look at a 1650super at around the $240-250 mark, then the 1660super,
At the moment I have an old R9 Fury which has given me nothing but heart ache with crashes etc…
Was looking to upgrade to a 1660 super if it comes on sale black friday but might just jump at this. Just not sure if I want to go AMD again after the experience with my Fury 😞
RX570 is proven stable platform, this one more so as it has a very decent cooler,
It's probably worth keeping in mind that an RX 570 will be somewhat slower than a (working) R9 Fury on average.
That's what I thought I might hang on a few more weeks to see what else comes on sale.
Do you think this can endure the next-gen of NBA 2K22 & unreal engine in FIFA 22 & PES 2022 at Ultra 1080p setting ?
Yep 1080p at ultra shouldn't be an issue considering that the RX570 does 80-100fps at ultra settings at 4k for FIFA 21.

Saw this same card on SE the other day with an extra 10% off (may have been $199 before the discount though). Still wouldn't buy even though I need a GPU, rather pay a little extra ($10-$30) and get a 580/1650 Super/1060 6GB.
For the 1650 Super, yeah. I'd only be buying a cheap card to tide me over until I get one of the new Nvidia or AMD cards. Running on integrated for the time being.
$192 with shipping hmmm….
decent deal considering the price of second hand rx 570's on aliexpress has almost doubled due to mining…
It’s a decent entry-level option for a Hackintosh build or virtual machine with GPU passthrough.
Guys
I'm running an old Radeon HD 7970 / R9 280X which has been really faithfull, but struggling with Far Cry New Dawn.
Would this be a worthwhile upgrade? I'm not current on the most important stats.
https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/Radeon-RX-570-vs-…
Not a hard core gamer.for the money at 1080p resolution this is good bang for buck,
if you wanted to go faster this is what I would be looking at for the price:
RX570, around $180
1650 super, around $240
1660 super, around $330Cool. Thank you.
Further to this…
Current CPU is an AMD FX-8350 Eight-Core 4GHz Socket AM3+ 125W Black Edition
What is the chance that the CPU is going to bottleneck an RX570?
Is there any way I can find out how compatible these will be?The games I'm currently playing appear to be maxing out GPU whilst CPU is only at around 30%. But don't know if that's relevant to CPU/GPU compatibility.

Great card for the price, my rx570 served me well as a temporary card
