An old woman who will give odds to the young
At the sight of the old Radeon RX 580 in 2020, many will have a reasonable question, what the hell is she even doing in the top of the best video cards under $250? Wait a minute, we'll explain everything. The fact is that this option from Gigabyte is perhaps the most affordable graphics card with 8 GB of video memory, which can now be found in stores. For many modern games, 4 GB is already back to back, and a next-gen like Cyberpunk 2077 looms on the horizon, where 8 GB of video and 16 GB of RAM will be mandatory for a comfortable game. And despite its age, the Gigabyte Radeon RX 580 fits these requirements perfectly. And they ask for it exactly the same as for the GTX 1650 SUPER and 5500 XT with 4 GB.
Power Supply
The reverse side of the coin is the "gluttony" of video cards based on the Navi chip. Of course, it is not as brutal as that of the VEGA line, but it is significantly higher than that of the 2019-2020 models. If the average GTX 1650 SUPER is enough for a 350W power supply, then a minimum of 500W is required here. And 550 W is better to leave a margin for overclocking. However, this can also be considered as a plus, by purchasing a good power supply with a margin in a couple of years, you can easily choose more powerful and modern components with a minimum regard for the power consumption limit.
Once a flagship graphics card
As for everything else, this card from Gigabyte used to be a flagship model with all the consequences: an advanced WindForce 2X cooling system with asymmetric blades, a full-fledged RGB backlight with RGB Fusion 2.0 synchronization, a reinforced backplate and a pack of ready-made profiles for different overclocking levels. By the way, overclocking is another advantage over its contemporaries. From the RX 5500 XT, few people manage to squeeze more than 5% on the core, but here you can count on an additional 10 – 15%. At the same time, the cooling system does an excellent job of keeping the temperatures of the components within the normal range and without emitting unnecessary noise. And in idle time, it goes into passive mode, reducing the noise level to the background.
