Great card for the price

I was a little worried after reading the reviews, so I prepared myself to have to clean these cards and reapply thermal paste, but when they arrived I was pleasantly surprised. The 3 cards I recieved could have passed for new out of the box. The had the driver disk and the original "getting started" pamphlet. The only thing not included was the original boxes. I installed the first one in my wife's computer yesterday. It works very well at 4k on the desktop, but my 4k tv was limited to 30hz so I dropped it down to 1440 and was able to play Elder Scrolls and Paladins both at 1440 with no issues. the poerformance and responsiveness felt as good as my gtx1060 which is limited to 1080p by the monitor I have for it. The RX580 and the GTX1060 are pretty similar in performance overall, where the 1060 pulls ahead in some games, but the 580 pulls ahead as a good compute card, and has slightly better fps in easy games like smite or minecraft. This would be a great card for someone who wants 1080p or 1440p entry level gaming on medium to high settings depending on the game, and also wants to do a little more with their PC when they aren't gaming.Read full review
