    everyone hating yet that’s about a 250% performance increase.

    Try about 50%, good upgrade I hope your happy playing on your new GPU ✌️😎

    Any upgrade is a good upgrade, not everyone can afford the ridiculous prices of gfx cards from the last 7 years.

    Have fun gaming!

    I initially thought you were upgrading from RX 580 😭

  5. Casually_Weird

    I was in the same situation last year!

    Only I went from just an i7 6700 with it’s iGPU to a Sapphire Nitro+ RX 480 8GB (which is a slightly overclocked model)! And considering I got the RX for 20$ that was a steal!

    Since the RX 580 that you bought is a 8GB variant, it will still aid you in 1080p for a decent few more years! Enjoy your card!

    That xfx rx 580 was also my first ever GPU. Then I just downgraded to a 1050ti.

    So curious, what else is the system made of spec wise, what do you do on it, do you play games, what games do you play, WHAT DOES IT ALL LOOK LIKE ?

    that is like a 236% performance increase with x8 the VRAM amount

    very good upgrade, you dont neeed the latest and greatest to have a good upgrade, enjoy your new GPU

    I guess you’re still at 1080p, because that GPU is not going to work well with 1440p or above.

    my first upgrade was to a temp 1060 then a 2060 from a 570

    Not everyone can afford a top end rig, let my man game in peace

  13. ThrowYourDreamsAway

    good on you, man! enjoy the big jump!

    Great upgrade, before getting my current computer that was the GPU I was thinking about getting

  15. Congratulations OP,its a huge performance upgrade. Hope you will enjoy the game you wanted

    A great upgrade I used to use a 650ti boost back in the day. The 580 should be great for you man.

  17. Eagle_eye_Online

    The 580 is a massive upgrade and very cheap as well.

    Still a very solid GPU! I’ve an 8 gig RX 480 in my HTPC and it keeps up surprisingly well with simpler or older titles, but even newer ones are doable if your expectations aren’t crazy high.

  19. lonesome_game

    Hell yea! I love upgrades that jump a few generations to get hella gains. I switched out my 1050 2gb to a 4070 12gb

  20. OutrageousAccess7

    I know RX 6600 or B570 is better ones but its gpu choice is limited at certain price range.

  21. I still use rx580 on my PC, playing the same game I played all my life, world of warcraft…

  22. Sure_Fly_6904

    The rx 580 is still plenty capable in 2025. I still use my reference blower rx 580. I’m waiting on my 9060 XT to come in

  23. clumpychicken

    Man, I haven’t thought about Kepler GPUs in a minute! My first card was a 660ti, and later I had a 770. That was back when the 2 vs 4 GB VRAM debate was just getting started, lol
