Gigabyte released a Radeon RX 480 of their own, the G1 GAMING model comes armed with 8GB graphics memory, and we review it. This WindForce 2X cooled mainstream graphics card series will allow you to play your games in both the Full HD 1080P range as well as in WQHD (2560x1440). And all that at a very attractive price.

Among custom RX480 I'd place XFX GTR as first, excellent overall cooling (also on phases) and quiet. MSI, at least in my country, is priced higher and does not offer much more.
Gigabyte lately is not doing so well with cooling, also on Nvidia cards and often has coil whine problems. Asus too not so good. Powercolor RX480 Devil has overall a good cooling but way too big and not so quiet (there is a video on youtube where Powercolor Devil is compared with XFX GTR and XFX wins in everything).
