rx 580 overclocking

How To overclock rx 580?? Can anyone help?

 

RX 580 4GB, 1060 3GB or 2nd hand 290/970

RX 480 8 GB? Price should have come down on those because of the RX 580 8 GB models. RX 480 8 GB will beat all of the above.

GTX 970 second hand will be the most bang for the buck but that 3.5 GB effective memory is crippling going forward.

 

Help me find a graphics card

The cutoff between the high end basic graphics cards and the high performance graphics cards seems to be the AMD RX 580 series. That's what I would recommend you go with. I have an AMD Ryzen 7 2700X system with an OEM RX 580 card in it and I'm about 90% happy with it. With your system, I believe the RX 580 would definitely NOT be the bottleneck in performance, but it won't drain your bank account too much either.

You're looking at about $200 US for an RX 580 card. On my system, I do believe the OEM RX 580 is the bottleneck, but I'm not going to drop $300+ for a high performance card. My RX 580 OEM card gives me good enough performance. The biggest difference between OEM and retail RX 580s is that the OEM version only has 4 GB DDR5 VRAM and the retail versions have 8 GB.
