Need a Replacement GFX Card. 1650 Super Vs. RX 580 Vs. RX 590?

Hey folks,

As the title suggests, I need a new graphics card to replace my dead HD 7970 that managed to cook itself just before Doom Eternal was released.

The rest of the PC specs are: i5-4690k, 8GB ram, 750W PSU, 250GB SSD.

I am leaning more towards the GTX 1650 Super as it is a lot newer and has the same performance as the RX 580.

However the RX 580/590 has 8GB VRam which is making me think they might have better longevity?

I mostly game at 1080P, but have a 4K TV that I would like to play at 1440P if possible.

I am looking at getting them from UMART, and the prices range from $260 - $300.

RX 580: https://www.umart.com.au/Asus-Radeon-RX-580-Dual-8GB-OC-Grap…
RX 590: https://www.umart.com.au/Gigabyte-Radeon-RX-590-Gaming-8G-RE…
GTX 1650S: https://www.umart.com.au/Gigabyte-GeForce-GTX-1650-Super-Win…

Any help?

  • Rx if you want your card to double as a space heater I suppose.

    • Currently bench testing 14x used 1070’s before sending them out. I can tell you that these boys get HOT!

  • The cpu bottlenecks anything above a 1660 super, so if you want to save some money go the 1650 super route.

  • not the best prices

    but if strictly at those prices

    i'd spend that 299 to get rx590

  • get an used one, plenty of RX570 4GB, RX580 4GB, GTX1060 3GB on EBay around $140
    I was looking for a GTX1650 and ended up with an used GTX1060

    • I've had a look but there is nothing on Gumtree.

      On Ebay, used RX 580 4G/8GB are oging going for a minimum $225 so not much discount for used goods.

      • +1

        Used GTX1070 $200 on facebook at wantirna south

        • This is easily your best option

      • $140 it's too low you won't get one for that. How much would you pay for a used 580?

        • I got a 1060 3GB for $126 on ebay last year, $140 with shipping, there are RX570 4GB with similar prices, mostly ex-mining though

  • I would say go for the RX590 because of the extra RAM. You will probably need it if you want to play anything in 4k.

  • I'd source a second hand GTX 1070 for around $300~ if I were you

  • 1650 super. cant go wrong
