The ASRock Phantom Gaming Radeon RX 580 OC with 8GB graphics memory has reached Europe. This two slot cooled mainstream graphics card series will allow you to play your games in both the Full HD 1080P as well as gaming in WQHD (2560x1440) domain. It's ASRock's first series in a graphics card lineup, wanna check it out with me?

Hi Hilbert, always a pleasure to read your work.
A question to you and other readers:
Doesn't he 30 EUR difference between the 580 8GB and the 570 4GB seem way too small to justify going for the 570? I mean, on a 2 to 3 year perspective, don't the 30 extra totally make sense? In other words, why would anyone buy the 570 at that price?

Thanks!

8GB is preferred over 4GB yes, the 570 or 580 remains a personal choice in budget though.

Isn't "Gaming X" trademark of MSI? That can't be right.

Old, noisy, slow & hot are the words that come to mind! Boring GPU market, time for some changes!
