Also Linux generally had better 1% lows, lower RAM usage, and lower CPU usage. A big part of this is that AMD no longer updates the Windows drivers for the RX 580.
Idk how trustworthy this youtube channel is, but crazy to think the RX 580 released in 2017 and the 8GB version was ~$230 lol
For a card released in 2017 for only $230, it’s still very impressing how well it still cooks
Still rocking an rx580. When I clicked reccomend graphics settings for armored core 6 and boulders Gate 3 it still reccomend ultra/high settings. That card is a fucking workhorse
I paid 600 cdn for a 1080ti sc2 which had 11gb… can still use it for games today if I wanted too.
these days, the high end cards would be $4000, have a high chance to burn my entire house down and are plagued with issues and glitches on windows.
Yeah. Had the 480 8GB and in December 2016 it was running 250. The 580 was basically the same GPU with some minor tweaks and changes plus faster clock speeds.
My stepson’s system was using it with ChimeraOS (similar to SteamOS) until there was some driver issues then upgraded it to a RX 7600. If they didn’t have the issue with the drivers it would probably still be chugging along.
