Reddit mentions of Gigabyte Radeon Rx 480 G1 Gaming 8GB GDDR5 Graphics Card (GV-RX480G1 GAMING-8GD)

no they don't look on amazon i found this one right here https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Radeon-Graphics-GV-RX480G1-GAMING-8GD/dp/B01KCWZ12W/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1482982237&sr=1-2&keywords=rx+480+8gb

That's way too much. You can get a RX 480 for 230€ from amazon: https://www.amazon.de/GIGABYTE-Radeon-GAMING-192bit-WINDFORCE/dp/B01KCWZ12W. The best RX 580 is at 260€: https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/8GB-Sapphire-Radeon-RX-580-Nitro--Aktiv-PCIe-3-0-x16--Retail-_1167547.html.

I saw that prices at coolblue.nl are elevated compared to this. Consider buying in germany, or from another vendor.

CPU Cooler: Buy the Cyrorig H7. It's the best in it's price point at the moment, and looks amazing. You won't need a better cooler for anything unless you want to overclock, which you really don't need to do with a CPU as good as yours.


Video Card: For 1080p@60fps, I would advise the GTX 1060 or the RX 480. Both will crush 60fps at 1080p, but if you want extra future-proofing at a higher price, go for the GTX 1070. The 1060(try for 6GB), and the RX 480(try for 8GB) are excellent cards that will run any modern game well, even at 1440p. The 1070 is even better, but only really needed if you want something like Hairworks for The Witcher 3 or intensive mods for Skyrim.

RAM:Since you have a motherboard with 4 RAM slots, get another 2 4GB sticks of your current RAM and run it in quad channel, 16GB in quad channel is amazing for modern games, although your RAM's speed isn't probably high enough nowadays.

PSU:Upgrade if you want to(I'd advise it), but I won't go advising you on any because PSU's can be so inconsistent. Just try for one above 600w that gets good reviews and few failures, unless you feel OK about your current one.

You can get a Radeon RX 480 for the same price on Amazon.

oh really? I honestly just thought the 1060 was the newest best card for that price, I will check out the 480 now.

This is an updated version of the Rx 480 8gb vs the Gtx 1060 6gb. I would take a look at it and compare it to what games you usually play and pick which one suits you best. As far as aftermarket coolers go, I usually tend to go with the cheapest one, unless there is a better version for like 5$ more. Usually the difference between most coolers are anywhee from 1-5 fps or cooler temperatures. I recommend this Rx 480 or this for the 1060 version.

Otherwise

$220 after rebate. Probably the best you're gonna get under $250. Remember to use the smile.amazon.com!

How's this? GIGABYTE RX 480 G1 8GB GDDR5 Video Card for $340.96 including shipping.

Thanks for the suggestions! This looks good.

• Given the obscene price difference in NVIDIA vs AMD, I won't complain - I hadn't even considered AMD :). But it looks like the AMD GPU performs worse, not better. Should I wait for the RX 490 to come out in a few weeks? I'm not in a hurry. (EDIT: looks like the RX 480 costs closer to INR 21k on Amazon.in including import fees + delivery, not 18k as indicated by pcpp)
  
  
• One concern is Linux compatibility - are there stable Linux drivers for AMD's latest cards?

In my thread people advised to buy the fresh new RX 580 but it's quite expensive here in France (>280€ for the 8Go version) and I read it isn't a lot better than the 480. Should I buy this 480 for 240€ instead? Or do you think prices are gonna drop in the next weeks for the 580?

Sorry I don't know much about PCs but you can keep your case, HDD, SSD.

You can get a Ryzen 5 1600 said to be $219.

An AM4 motherboard is around $100 : Link

Then you can get a Gigabyte RX480 G1 Gaming 8gb for $240 : link

You can get a 8gb DDR4 memory kit for $60 : [link

all this will cost you around $610-620. Sorry if this is a bit above your budget. Again, I don't know much about what is best so please forgive me if this is bad in overall value.

Here you go dude.

I had this exact kind of setup for quite a while, except I had PCI instead of PCIE. I made this gallery thing on imgur a while ago to show what it looks like to have a Wi-Fi card and a graphics card on a mATX mobo. Now I have an ASUS Crosshair VI Hero and a Gigabyte PCIE Wi-Fi card, so there's much more breathing room.

It will be a TIGHT fit. Make sure you have a somewhat slim graphics card (mine is an RX 480 G1 Gaming 8GB for reference).

How about this 480? So many damn variants. Only gaming at 1080 for time being maybe will get 1440p when money allows https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Radeon-Graphics-GV-RX480G1-GAMING-8GD/dp/B01KCWZ12W/ref=sr_1_2?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1484166449&sr=1-2&keywords=rx+480&refinements=p_n_feature_four_browse-bin%3A6066318011%2Cp_n_condition-type%3A2224371011%2Cp_6%3AATVPDKIKX0DER $20 rebate not bad

I removed the GPU and it runs games without crashing.

I have found out that The GIGABYTE RX 480 G1 8GB GDDR5 DVI/HDMI/3XDP Gaming Video Card has a BIOS (F4) error. I tired downloading the new BIOS (F8) and installing it but I do not know if it took because it still crashed.

Other people have posted the steps on amazon reviews for the GPU

Well there's this one.

This one

And this one.

Go for the Gigabyte RX 480. It's 8GB, will provide support for VR and allow you max out games at 1080p in the future. 3GB isn't enough nowadays. They're basically the same price in India.
