Not sure how this deal will take however the card is $159 brand new with 3 year warranty and AMD just released drivers for this card as of 08-05-2025 Which means this card is now fully up-to-date
However don't expect newer driver updates

The price is reasonable for 8GB GPU with warranty.

at this price it seems to be a much better deal then the RX 6500XT 4GB which is around $199-220 Both cards are similar in performance however the RX 580 can do hardware encoding , specifically for H.264 and H.265 codecs and the 6500XT cannot.

Edit: Please note Dan24's comment this is the 2048SP model which means it's not a true RX 580

    Considering you can pick these up on Aliexpress (yes, IK its the 2048SP version) for ~110 dollars, I wouldn't say its worth it.

    At these prices, go used and grab a 1080 (TI) , 2060S, 5700 /XT for the same price. You'll have a much better time.

      Fair point however there is more 'peace of mind' purchasing a brand new card with warranty from a reputable store. I see on ebay people are asking similar money for the RX 580 which is obviously old and used, this card for $159 new while it isn't anything amazing it's probably a better pick then a 6500XT

        Absolutely not - if the card is 50% more expensive then you've just paid 50% more for the warranty 🤷

        This shouldn't give you peace of mind - you've just paid a 50% premium to cover a 0.1% chance of failure !!

  • Cheapsize on 27/05/2025 - 22:24

    I have an an RX580 since 2018 and I can run any current game well at 1080p.For a budget gaming PC this is a great pick up. People saying buy a second hand NVIDIA.. Ti die next year whatever it's called. Sorry but AMD cards are supported well after they stop selling them and they are stable. Do you want someone else's potential problem or a budget quality chipset that will last about 5 years more and it will last 5 years before you notice you can't play the next gen games on it anymore. That's my experience,I've had Nvidia cards and I don't think they are amazing or that much better. Radeon all the way

The same People will buy the best graphics card then buy a monitor that refreshes at 60hz and outputs at 1080p.

      And get your negative vote stripped from you for pointing that out and highlighting significantly better alternatives for little more money.

      Both the 6GB and 8GB RTX 3050 are substantially better value for money, as is the Intel A570.

      Then there's used RTX 20 series cards, and everything in the RTX 30 series up to the RTX 3070 (~$400).

      not quite it's around 50% faster source: tech powerup

    • jasswolf on 28/05/2025 - 09:29

      Still a better pick than the OP's deal, but would imagine it doesn't stack up favourably against the RTX 3050 8GB once you factor in DLSS 4, or the Intel B570 (though it should be below $350 by now).

      • BROKENKEYBOARD on 28/05/2025 - 10:15

        6600 should be about 20% faster than a 3050 8GB in rasterization so I would actually prefer that, plus it's cheaper. I wouldn't touch Intel unless you have a high end CPU.

        • jasswolf on 28/05/2025 - 11:28

          Totally fair if you don't have resizeable BAR for Intel, true, but for the RTX 3050 8GB, DLSS 4 even on the quality setting should be increasing FPS by at least 20% while overall looking better than native, that's my argument. I think it trumps the 6600 and maybe even edges out the 7600 often enough.

          But these are all much better options than buying an RX 580 in 2025. Shows you how ridiculous the narrative has become online.

            @jasswolf:

            That's a different issue. This video explain it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00GmwHIJuJY
            In Spiderman they show that a Ryzen 5 7600 isn't fast enough for a B580.

            Well not everyone exclusively only plays DLSS 4 games and even still, AMD upscaling seems decent enough nowadays. Eitherway if you're really going to be spending so much more you may as well get a 7600 or 4060 at that point.

              @BROKENKEYBOARD: I'm aware of the driver overhead issue, but it's one Intel have acknowledged and are actively investigating. It's also totally fine at 1440p right now due to lower frame rates, though maybe not if you're still rocking a Ryzen 1600/2600.

              AMD upscaling is improved sufficiently on the RX 9000 series, and even then it sits well behind DLSS 4. None of the FSR 4 improvements apply to this discussion. FSR 3 is a break glass in case of emergency solution despite having improved over time.

              DLSS 4 is a valid consideration when comparing the RTX 3050 8GB and the RX 6600, but I haven't run the numbers on that. There is more than enough game support, especially going forward.

              If you're not buying the RX 9000 series, AMD GPUs are almost dead in the water, and at the price tag of most RX 9000 GPUs - including the 9060 XT - you're often better off with RTX 50 GPU due to path tracing performance as you are presumably buying for 4+ years use. I know that seems extreme for the RTX 5070 and below, but developers will be integrating a lot of technology that improves the VRAM situation with path tracing (and detailed graphics in general).

              AMD are at least 2 years behind on all of this on RDNA4 despite getting the hardware relatively closer, and it's showing in the FSR Redstone tech demos.

                I bet majority of people wouldn't notice a "well behind" difference if they compared playing games side by side. You'd have to be comparing still frames zoomed in if you're noticing substantial differences.

                This is ridiculous, this deal is about a $159 GPU or $289 for the 6600, not a $1000+ GPU for path tracing. Also expecting current gen GPUs even the 5070 to be path tracing well in 4 years time is a huge stretch.

                  This is just me commenting more widely on AMD GPUs and their issues on-going. People have access to some of these technologies with an RTX 30 series card, and you're saying they should cut themselves off from that almost entirely with the RX 6000 series. It's a big gap in terms of AI and RT performance (performance that extends beyond DLSS and tracing rays in games).

                  That sounds like more gambling, there's no guarantee that VRAM limitations could be fixed, nor whether these fixes will be applied to already existing or future games, nor even whether the GPUs will have enough horsepower anyway.

                  You can literally play path traced HL2 today that works within this budget. One of the few gaming efforts that's actually bothered to integrate Sampler Feedback, and there's other compression and asset streaming at play.

                  Intel B580 at 1080p on an older machine is definitely gambling, this is vastly less so. Neural compression alone will see massive adoption due to decreasing game storage requirements and thus download size, all while being supported on every RTX card, and at least one series of RDNA cards.

                      RT? We're seeing advancements with neural radiance caching that may enhance even the entry level RT GPUs from NVIDIA, and failing that hardware-accelerated RT sound is a thing that can be done.

                      The HL2 RTX demo supposedly maxes out at 12 GB VRAM (note: not used), at 1440p, max settings… so I already gave you the example? The game happily dynamically allocates due to Sampler Feedback.

    rx6600 is $300 new on staticice for a comparison

    • jasswolf on 28/05/2025 - 11:37

      If you only have $150 to spend on a graphics card, you probably shouldn't buy new today. That's going to shift back around over the next few years due to various chip and AI advances and the new 3GB VRAM chip options, as well as newer iGPU configurations slowly coming down in price.

      If people are walking around with premium phones, they're going to get a lot of gaming value out of that and many can transform into a desktop experience with a USB-C dock, or at least feed a display and audio output and accept KBM input via one, and there's also affordable cloud gaming options they can flip on for a week or a month if they need to roll out something that is PC only.

      Invest in that, or save for that $300-$400 range, or alternatively divest of your current system and buy a $650-$800 pre-built and leap even further forward.

          Most likely an RTX 4060 at this stage, but 8GB 4060 Ti and the RTX 5060 should slide into that scope soon. You can see a number of offers here on the website.

          Smart move would be to get an AM5 system (AMD Ryzen 7000/8000/9000).
