256 bit bus is the reason for the longevity, and is the reason they are cutting down the bus speed on all new entry level cards, they want your GFX card to be obsolete sooner.... best way to do that is to giimp the memory speed

I run a 580 until a year ago. I didn't need to upgrade when I did. At 1080p my 580 never run out of memory or anything. I just got an RX 6700 cheap that was much better. I've since gone to an RX 6800 and that's where I am riding for the next few years unless something super cheap jumps out in front of me. It's going to have to be a deal because I've got Vram now.
I did run ati 7970 GHz edition. It has been rebranded to Radeon 280x, 380x, 470, 570. GCN 1.0-3.0 were good architectures. I did not have drivers on my GCN gen 1 card and there was weird support with new drivers being windows 8 only. Back then they dropped windows Vista and windows 7 kernels really fast.
@@x0vg5hs1 I ran a 7970 and a 280x in crossfire back in the days. Not that it helped much as most games either refused to use the second gpu or the frametimes were all over the place. Still great solid cards that turned out to be quite future proof, if there is any such thing with gaming hardware.
Just completed my pc build this month and I bought this gpu but only the 2048sp because I like the lower power consumption. The performance is great despite it's age and can comfortably play games like Elden ring, Rdr2, and sport games at high fps 1080p
RX 580 user here. The "UEFI to CSM" issue can be fixed through a stock VBIOS flash from the vendor's website. 99% of the cards at launch had seen a VBIOS update barely a week or two after, which seemed to have been targetted towards the aforementioned issue in particular. I have an AORUS Non-XTR model and a VBIOS flash fixed it. I did own the MSI model too at some point, (before it imploded due to being heavily used in mining by the previous seller), and a VBIOS flash fixed it as well.
Bought a 580 last year for my new PC because I couldn't afford a better gpu at the time. Used it for a year and I was very surprised at how well it performed. I upgraded to RX 6900xt a few months ago and I'm really happy with team red so far!
Vega 56 is basically the same price sometimes cheaper. Drawbacks are, you need a beefy PSU and most of them have been mining, but it's not like the RX 580 was not 🥸.
I actually bought a used XFX RX580 XXX Edition for $89 a month before COVID hit and the prices went up on graphics cards without realizing it to go with a R5 2600x processor. Fast forward years later and I am able to play games like Diablo 4 with zero issues.
Yep. My son and I had basically identical systems to yours. We played fortnight and war zone no problem at all. I've upgrade to 5600ryzen5 and a 6700xt 12gb GPU now. My son still uses his 580 and has 3600r5. We use Linux for a lot of our gaming and only use windows for games that require windows and AMD GPUs just work.
For the current times its a perfect esports gpu cant beat the price to performance ratio on it; absolutly best bang for the buck if you only play esports and easy to run games
Good advice and I completely agree :). I have s 2600x with a Rx570 and even with the handicap of only having 4 gbs of vram, it does surprisingly well. Nice vid!
I ran Hogwarts on an RX590 when it first came out and had no issue with running it but there was a game breaking water bug that was tied to pretty much all polaris cards. As far as I know neither the game devs or AMD ever put out a driver or a fix for it. I mostly play MMO's and an RX580/ RX590 will run all of them at 1080P with ease. (new ones like Pax Dei excluded) I will never have a bad thing to say about the RX590 and the RX 580 by extension. It was the card that carried me through the pandemic and the crypto cesspool that came at the same time. Tied into that, there are a lot of mining 580's out there so it's a bit of a lottery on what you will get for budget. If you get one that was treated well it will do it's duty.
just picked up one of these for $45, seller told me the ports were broken but i got a good deal on it because it all works perfectly fine. honestly just wanted something cheap for my home server that could also be used to game if my gf comes over. checked out this vid to see what numbers i should expect from the card, thanks.
This card aged like a fine wine. Seriously, AMD did a great job making drivers for Polaris better year after year. It's unfortunate that driver support has ended, but still, considering how cheap these cards are, there's no reason not to pick them up for your budget build.
Pretty much every AMD card ages like fine wine. Friends 1070 died, slapped my old 7970 in his pc until he could buy a GPU and it ran games that even I was shocked by.
I've had and I'm still gaming using my GTX 1060 6GB which I got on day 1 release the moment it came to my local store....Had it for 8 years already, best financial decision I ever made tbh 😂
I have the rx590 fatboy and did great when i got it in 2020 upgrading from rx280 to play at 1080 some 1440 games. Now it it is in my back up pc and gaming on evga 2080ti which is amazIng card today. Been wanting to upgrade but to have amazing jump again the card needs to be over a 4070 or 7800xt
Yeah at this point I will wait until 5xxx or new AMD and build a whole new rig for 4k as 2080ti undervolt OC gets me solid 60fps for the non fps games as mainly rts gamer.
Replaced my 580 for 7900 xtx recently, but I was very happy with 580 for number of years. Recording with AMD ReLive didn't affect my framerate at all (to the point I'd notice). For $70 or so, it's an absolute steal.
Considering the new cards have clock speeds twice as high, the performance is still decent. Can’t imagine how this card would have performed at 1.9 GHz if it was possible, I would say this arhitecture was legendary! I’ve gotten mine in 2019 for 200€ and it has been enough. Quite a long time 😊
These cards also run Diablo 4 like butter. Sure, no hi-res textures, but apart from that, perfectly servicable. Also the 2024SP variants are identical to RX570 in shader count, but they *can* come with slower memory chips. Research needed. Lastly, GTX1070 and Vega 56 come almost as cheap and are twice as fast in some scenarios.
I own a 2048sp model, one thing the lad didn't mention and I would SUGGEST taking into consideration A LOT is the "power connection" of the graphic card. For example, mine has a 6pin, therefore I cannot overvclock it. If you have an 8pin module, you could possibly give it a bump or another at gpu's core freq or perhaps memory freq - Or even both, thats the point. But if so is yours 6 pin, it can be dangerous perhaps at full power. I wouldn't, the gain is minimal though... LEARNING how to set up the game/application is more important than anything. It is a great graphic card, even the 2048sp. I do not regret it at all. But I would have bought a 6600 model instead, as it uses less energy and is certainly better. If you feel like your rx 580 is not good, change your desktop to 1280x720p and try using that resolution. That gpu is A BEAST, and it OVERKILLS at 720p. It can 1080p "medium", but it shines a LOT at a smaller resolution. That would be probably my piece of advice, maybe. Also, you don't need to run everything on ultra, put textures high (it usually takes it well for it's 8gb ram), the rest medium/low (idk, we talking bout NOTHING, swing around, it might even take things with ease at ultra as well) and you will get to understand the sweetspot to obtain an amazing performance. And if you're annoyed that yours is 2048sp, accept it, the performance drop is around 10~13%, usually around 7~14 fps, get your shit done, in most cases it wouldn't change a thing. Be happy instead, this gpu is amazing anyway, and there are "unnoficial" FSR ways to increase it's performance even more. I love to see it thriving... In the end, i'm just a humble man!
i came wo any broadcasting knowledge at all so im still learning, but doesnt mean can be treated unequally, if theyre good and profitable then profitable why the long route
As saturated as the budget tech space is with Polaris GPU recommendations, it's for good reason These are still the absolute cheapest bang for buck cards I can get in my area, with 470s as low as $20 per and 8GB 480s/580s for like $40. As much as I'd like to buy more interesting cards for the budget builds they do, nothing even comes close for that price unless I stumble across the rare unicorn deal. Hope to see the sub $100 (really the sub $50) used market begin to offer newer or more interesting alternatives soon. Some of the 900 series cards are hovering down towards a similar price point which is nice to see. Great video as always! Look forward to whenever/whatever the next one is :)
Sapphire Nitro+ Rx 590 purchased in 2018, still running most games at 60-90 fps on medium to high settings. The main thing it struggles with is high quality shadows and reflection but set those to medium if your game struggles and you will be fine. OC to 1600 or 1650 Mhz, undervolt to 1090mv, custom fan curve, GPU stays at 54-58 C. Even can OC memory from 2100mhz to 2250mhz around 980mv - 1015mv. Power consumption is usually 135w upto about 155w with these settings.
Thanks for the BIOS information. I've been trying to learn what the newer features they have and uh... yea I'll make sure my bios is set up properly. I've bought this card because I'm sick and tired of wanting to upgrade my GTX 1050 which is the same age as the one in the video but with 2GB of Ram. If I had known how important VRam was back than I would never have bought it, Also I didn't realize video cards would still be this outrageous.
I had a 590 (which is just an overclocked 580) and it served me well for years until the recent optimization crash of the UE5 era when i upgraded to a 3070.
I have one of the 2048sp models of the RX580 in my spare PC (paired with a Ryzen 5 1600AF and 16GB of 3200Mhz DDR4). It'd be worth trying the custom drivers for your card as the results I get in Hogwarts Legacy and Spider-Man are almost exactly the same but with a few settings turned up.
Dude thank you ao much people in some countries dont have leverage to buy expensive equipment so they go with lowest possible. I live in a third world country where equipment are really expensive and we are still stuck with 4 gb cards as well
im using the red devil, and i gotta say this card is stupidly insane, the number of titles you can still play on a decent performance low to mid insane.
On one of my computers my 3070ti oc die and i put my 580 8gb xfx and your right some times i had to reboot the computer like 5 times but when it works 💪 i running the games i play on it i ran perfectly. 5800x3d 2x8 3600 cl14 . I'm very happy with my new 4070 super . The funny part i have a cheap rx 460 4 gb to work on computers and it work every time i boot my 5800x3d pc. That's why I don't sale my old computer parts i save them for emergency purposes only ond fix computers especially the 460 4gb because it runs only in the gpu slot no power card.
Underrated card really. I always picked used RX 580 for cheap build if anyone asking for a draft. RX 580 pack power and if they just playing single player games or emulators, it will more than enough to have decent gaming experience
for anyone tryna play warzone,you can get between 80-90 fps using the right settings.i get about 80-90 fps and i got a rx580 with a ryzen 5500 and 12 gigs of ram
This baby carried me during the pandemic, prices were crazy back then, and I found a powercolor one at a very reasonable price. i will use to build my niece a basic school computer desktop.
Remembered that this card is a 1080p beast back then. Still is. Seems graphical tech doesn't advancing as fast as the 2010s. My GTX 570 released in 2010, and 7 years later have been somewhat obsolete thanks to its incapability to properly use DX12 (driver side capability sucks, wouldn't count on it), and low VRAM (though the 2.5GB variant solves this issue). Checking out new games in 2024, even Black Myth Wukong works pretty well on RX 580! Perfect for 1080p60, although it's mostly low settings on modern games. A proper, but still affordable step up for this card are probably RX 5600 XT. Similiar in performance to RTX 2060S while being a lot cheaper (in my area it's around 110$ for the 5600 XT and 150$ for 2060S).
I had an Nvidia Geforce 770 but at some point it just broke down , couldn't use it. so I had one of my friend recommand me something from facebook marketplace. it was that card. one of the fan actully makes more then usual noise but i just put a blanket on my pc (not fully for it to still breath and not overheat) and that part is fine. I bought my radeon card at *40 CA$* . i still need to actually buy a new pc cause honestly its just overall starting to break down... but in the meantime im glad i bought that card... as far as im aware that card is actually better then what i had.
i wanted to build a low end pc to play pc-exclusive games like phasmophobia, battlebit remastered, and portal with my friends and I think I will have a great time using this card!
Wow, man you have perfect selection of hardware for a review) I always return into your channel to make decision when buying old stuff (hello from ryzen 3600 😄, that by the way now in pair with RX580 8Gb) Best wishes to You!
My RX580 started crashing since last month. It's indeed a performer but there's just something with AMD GPUs since last year. So many posts in forums about their GPUs crashing with the HUNG error.
S.A.M. does work with the RX580. It works for the RX570 too. I've had both. The mobo has to be capable. Even if the drivers say that S.A.M is not turned on, if it's turned on in BIOS, it's running.
The motherboard is capable, every other recent AMD GPU that I played around with such as 5700 XT, 6600 XT and RX 6800 all have SAM. Once I install the RX 580 it isn't available, even with resizable bar enabled in the BIOS.
@@RATechYT I used to run a Gigabyte Intel 10th Gen Board. I had the "Above 4G, and Resize Bar setting" in BIOS. With the RX570, and 580, in the Adrenaline drivers, it never said it was Enabled. Always greyed out. But, (from a RUclips Vid) look in Device Manager/Display Adapter/Properties/Resources. If it's says "Large Memory Range" on top, S.A.M. is Enabled regardless what AMD Adrenaline says. It did it with both cards. I even benched them before and after. After was definitely faster.
Im building a couple budget pcs to sell (xeon mobo cpu ram combos) and am looking for a decent gpu to pair with it. the 580's price tag on ali has definitely increased since last time I got 2 off there. I think the popularity of the 2048 cards boosted their sales and sellers caught on and upped prices. Sad to see, im just looking for 2 cards at around 50-60 each to pair with the xeons. I saw a 1060 6gb for $50 on craigslist and will probably go with that
hi guys great video, quick question someone may be able to answer, i dont want to use this for gaming but to use with a capture card from my xbox to the pc to record and stream will this be good?
Still using an RX 580 paired with my 32" HDTV. Tried using an RX 5700XT, but for some reason I kept getting frequent 1 or 2 second audio drops, and the screen overscan would keep failing and only use 95% of the screen, and I would have to keep toggling the HDMI scaler. So I went back to the RX 580, which never had that problem.
5700xt needs 650w or better tier c power supply, low power supply causes weird sound stuff, some radeons the HDMI standard is not compatible, Displayport is more compatible but most TVs dont have displayport
I’m starting to build my first pc ever, do you recommend that I get this graphic card? I saw a lot of reviews on it on Amazon and a lot of people are saying good things about it, it costs $150 in my local currency and my budget for the entire pc is $800! Do you think it’s worth it or should aim for a better graphic card? Cause some people also recommend the rtx 3060 from ZOTAC Gaming which goes for $280! But it takes a lot from my budget 😅
Of course the 3060 is a much newer and more powerful card, it would make more sense to go with that one. In fact I'd forget about the RX 580 with your budget. I don't know how much PC parts cost where you live, but given the RTX 3060 costs $280, it looks like the prices are the same as they are in the US. You easily can build yourself a rig with a R5 5600, RTX 3060 12 GB and 32 GB of memory for that amount of money. If your main focus is gaming, I'd even recommend the RX 7600, which is a cheaper and generally faster card, at least without ray tracing.
i just picked one up for £54 (including postage) to replace my gtx 1050 ti. given the price i got it for, i may be able to make this a free upgrade if i sell the 1050. the speed will be nice, but i'm also very excited to go from 4 to 8gb of vram. i'm hoping to upgrade my modded fallout 4 from the choppy 30-50fps i get rn :)
The RX580 is the AK-47 of budget cards: cheap, reliable champ of the people that does the basic thing you ask it to do. I think the RX6700 XT will inherit that title next.
ID SUGGEST NOT WASTING TIME ON THIS ONE, YOU SHOULD GET I5 12400 OR 12600K, WHERE YOU GET UHD 770 WITH THE CHIP. THESE CARDS DON'T PERFORM BETTER THAN THAN THE INTEGRATED GPU.
@@ilikesinging7 that's not what I meant. If you are looking to build a rig specifically focussed on older titles, this would be a great buy. I have one of these as a spare GPU on my shelf, I know they are more than capable 😉
When I did my RX580 vs GTX 1060 Comparison, the RX580 was a hair faster. Also the extra RAM is certainly a bonus. In the end, the extra heat was not welcome. Also the fan profiles are not what I always used to (depending on brand). Sadly, it is much harder to find a GTX1060 when there are tons of RX580s available.
The CSM requirement is definitely not true for all RX 580s. Maybe there's something wrong with the one you tested. My best guess is that it was an ex-mining card and one of the previous owners flashed the VBIOS to one that didn't have UEFI support. You can fix it by finding your RX 580 model (or one close to it) in the TPU VBIOS collection and flash it onto the card.
baking af 74C found out that if you replace the fans with moded one gets quiet and colder from 70 to 57 and if i did undervolt probably will bump at 53 C and good quality thermal paste ofc.
im seeing the XFX Radeon RX 580 GTS XXX Edition for like $90 used should I get it or just get a brand new XFX Speedster SWFT 210 Radeon RX 6600 for $200
I don´t know your local used market situation but an RX 5500XT is the FAR better choice. It consumes 1/3 less power... is about 10-20% faster Has full driver support etc Got mine for about 75€
🙂 i wud chk 1070 ti 1080 470 570 480 580 56 64 5500 5600 5700, prices are weird so look around, if ur broke 970 980 seems to b cheaper and not too far behind the other cards

As for today you definitely CAN play the newest and greatest games 😂 just make sure you're not trying to run them on ultra details or so. 1080p is ofc 100% ok but sometimes you need to switch to just high, rarely to the medium ones and ALMOST NEVER to the low settings 😅
Does anyone know of a way to make an RX 580 run with ROCm on Windows? Yes, it's old, but it would be better than using the processor to play with A.I. and there are plenty of RX580s out there.
at this point in time (mid 2024) i think Rx 580 is done as an interesting GPU... i mean, yea... if you still have one, or want to build a secondary budget build then go for it... But there are so so many better options nowadays, and (most important) more and more newer tittles wont run propperly (i mean games that won't run 1080p 30fps at low, so you'll be forced to 720p since FSR won't save your gpu in every tittle). i'm still using my Rx 580 (4gb version) but i'm more than aware of its limits and i do know for a fact that i'm not playing any 2022 or newer AAA tittle
Hello bro please help me. Im building my first pc and the gpus that fit my budget are rx 580 8gb sapphire nitro+ it has good temps and physical condition but it was used in mining, theseller is reputable and goving me 2 months refund, repair warranty but not dead warranty meaning that if the card goes dead in 2 months he wont replace it. Second option i have is rx 580 4gb the seller said it hasn't been used for mining and is cheaper than the 8 gb variant, 3rd option is the gtx 970 4gb and 4th is 1060 6gb which is also not used in mining but it is expensive a bit. So what gpu should i buy which would last me a few years like 3-4-5 years. Thank you.
I can't help you with this decision since anything can happen with any GPU. I can tell you to pick one of these, and it might die within a few days (regardless of whether it was mined or not), so I don't want to take that responsibility, even though I bought plenty of cards that were used for mining and still function perfectly fine to this day. Personally I'd either pick the 8 GB RX 580 or the 6 GB GTX 1060, performance wise those two are the best. Once again though, buy used parts only after checking the physical condition, 10-15 minute stress testing, and of course at your own risk.
@@Damian-th4zv Results depend on the resolution, if there's any upscaling etc, as well as the area that's being tested. If you fly through the exact areas that I tested in my video using high settings, the frame rate will definitely drop.
The frame rate in majority of games was already low enough so I wanted to show the best possible results of this card, I think it's clear that by increasing the settings the frame rate is going to drop. But yes, like I said in the end if you're okay with a console like experience you can increase a few settings or maybe even play more modern titles.

I'm still a big believer in this card! Still use it in many of my flips, combining it with the Ryzen 3600. Beast budget combo!
For the current times its a perfect esports gpu cant beat the price to performance ratio on it; absolutly best bang for the buck if you only play esports and easy to run games
best budget combo now is 3600 with RX 5600XT or 5600 with RX 6600XT
5600 & 6600, very good
I chose intel for cpu, so i3-12100f & rx6600
thats for +100$ range@@FoxSky-md1ul
Good advice and I completely agree :). I have s 2600x with a Rx570 and even with the handicap of only having 4 gbs of vram, it does surprisingly well. Nice vid!
Thanks! Good to see you around.
I missed you RA Tech, good to see you back!
Hey Mark! Missed you too, good to see you around!
I ran Hogwarts on an RX590 when it first came out and had no issue with running it but there was a game breaking water bug that was tied to pretty much all polaris cards. As far as I know neither the game devs or AMD ever put out a driver or a fix for it. I mostly play MMO's and an RX580/ RX590 will run all of them at 1080P with ease. (new ones like Pax Dei excluded) I will never have a bad thing to say about the RX590 and the RX 580 by extension. It was the card that carried me through the pandemic and the crypto cesspool that came at the same time. Tied into that, there are a lot of mining 580's out there so it's a bit of a lottery on what you will get for budget. If you get one that was treated well it will do it's duty.
They fixed it, or at least modded drivers integrated the new amd driver fixes.
I appreciate the attention to detail, like showing the fan RPM in HWiNFO and measuring the power consumption from the wall. Subbed!
I for one like these videos on older video cards and how to get the most out of them. Running rx 570 8gb I got for 30 bucks CAD
just picked up one of these for $45, seller told me the ports were broken but i got a good deal on it because it all works perfectly fine. honestly just wanted something cheap for my home server that could also be used to game if my gf comes over. checked out this vid to see what numbers i should expect from the card, thanks.
This card aged like a fine wine. Seriously, AMD did a great job making drivers for Polaris better year after year. It's unfortunate that driver support has ended, but still, considering how cheap these cards are, there's no reason not to pick them up for your budget build.
Pretty much every AMD card ages like fine wine. Friends 1070 died, slapped my old 7970 in his pc until he could buy a GPU and it ran games that even I was shocked by.
Driver support hasn't ended the card will be receiving security patches if one is available
@@princekells2 how can you be so sure?
@@GamingGeek2024 it will ,hummm am willing too move to nvidia still their 2016 cards still receives updates
@@princekells2 ye an nvidia gtx 750 ti which was released in 2014 still gets driver updates to this day
I've had and I'm still gaming using my GTX 1060 6GB which I got on day 1 release the moment it came to my local store....Had it for 8 years already, best financial decision I ever made tbh 😂
Good work as always! Really surprising longevity for a lower midrange card. It is basically a 1080 Ti-light at this point.
I have the rx590 fatboy and did great when i got it in 2020 upgrading from rx280 to play at 1080 some 1440 games. Now it it is in my back up pc and gaming on evga 2080ti which is amazIng card today. Been wanting to upgrade but to have amazing jump again the card needs to be over a 4070 or 7800xt
😒👍 7900 XT FTW
Yeah at this point I will wait until 5xxx or new AMD and build a whole new rig for 4k as 2080ti undervolt OC gets me solid 60fps for the non fps games as mainly rts gamer.
Replaced my 580 for 7900 xtx recently, but I was very happy with 580 for number of years. Recording with AMD ReLive didn't affect my framerate at all (to the point I'd notice).
For $70 or so, it's an absolute steal.
Considering the new cards have clock speeds twice as high, the performance is still decent. Can’t imagine how this card would have performed at 1.9 GHz if it was possible, I would say this arhitecture was legendary! I’ve gotten mine in 2019 for 200€ and it has been enough. Quite a long time 😊
These cards also run Diablo 4 like butter. Sure, no hi-res textures, but apart from that, perfectly servicable.
Also the 2024SP variants are identical to RX570 in shader count, but they *can* come with slower memory chips. Research needed.
Lastly, GTX1070 and Vega 56 come almost as cheap and are twice as fast in some scenarios.
I own a 2048sp model, one thing the lad didn't mention and I would SUGGEST taking into consideration A LOT is the "power connection" of the graphic card. For example, mine has a 6pin, therefore I cannot overvclock it. If you have an 8pin module, you could possibly give it a bump or another at gpu's core freq or perhaps memory freq - Or even both, thats the point. But if so is yours 6 pin, it can be dangerous perhaps at full power. I wouldn't, the gain is minimal though... LEARNING how to set up the game/application is more important than anything. It is a great graphic card, even the 2048sp. I do not regret it at all. But I would have bought a 6600 model instead, as it uses less energy and is certainly better.
If you feel like your rx 580 is not good, change your desktop to 1280x720p and try using that resolution. That gpu is A BEAST, and it OVERKILLS at 720p. It can 1080p "medium", but it shines a LOT at a smaller resolution. That would be probably my piece of advice, maybe.
Also, you don't need to run everything on ultra, put textures high (it usually takes it well for it's 8gb ram), the rest medium/low (idk, we talking bout NOTHING, swing around, it might even take things with ease at ultra as well) and you will get to understand the sweetspot to obtain an amazing performance.
And if you're annoyed that yours is 2048sp, accept it, the performance drop is around 10~13%, usually around 7~14 fps, get your shit done, in most cases it wouldn't change a thing. Be happy instead, this gpu is amazing anyway, and there are "unnoficial" FSR ways to increase it's performance even more. I love to see it thriving... In the end, i'm just a humble man!
i came wo any broadcasting knowledge at all so im still learning, but doesnt mean can be treated unequally, if theyre good and profitable then profitable why the long route
At Russia rx 580 is one of the most popular and most "meme" card at the same time
😒👍 just like Vodka comrad
As saturated as the budget tech space is with Polaris GPU recommendations, it's for good reason
These are still the absolute cheapest bang for buck cards I can get in my area, with 470s as low as $20 per and 8GB 480s/580s for like $40. As much as I'd like to buy more interesting cards for the budget builds they do, nothing even comes close for that price unless I stumble across the rare unicorn deal. Hope to see the sub $100 (really the sub $50) used market begin to offer newer or more interesting alternatives soon. Some of the 900 series cards are hovering down towards a similar price point which is nice to see.
Great video as always! Look forward to whenever/whatever the next one is :)
Sapphire Nitro+ Rx 590 purchased in 2018, still running most games at 60-90 fps on medium to high settings. The main thing it struggles with is high quality shadows and reflection but set those to medium if your game struggles and you will be fine.
OC to 1600 or 1650 Mhz, undervolt to 1090mv, custom fan curve, GPU stays at 54-58 C. Even can OC memory from 2100mhz to 2250mhz around 980mv - 1015mv.
Power consumption is usually 135w upto about 155w with these settings.
Good to see you back brother, been binging your fx vids and gotta say my love and appreciation for the fx processors has really grown
I really like how you will use a system that most people will either buy or at the very least could afford, subbed!
Finished Witcher 3 with my RX580! Such a powerhouse GPU! Smooth gaming experience!
Thanks for the BIOS information. I've been trying to learn what the newer features they have and uh... yea I'll make sure my bios is set up properly.
I've bought this card because I'm sick and tired of wanting to upgrade my GTX 1050 which is the same age as the one in the video but with 2GB of Ram. If I had known how important VRam was back than I would never have bought it, Also I didn't realize video cards would still be this outrageous.
I had a 590 (which is just an overclocked 580) and it served me well for years until the recent optimization crash of the UE5 era when i upgraded to a 3070.
I have one of the 2048sp models of the RX580 in my spare PC (paired with a Ryzen 5 1600AF and 16GB of 3200Mhz DDR4). It'd be worth trying the custom drivers for your card as the results I get in Hogwarts Legacy and Spider-Man are almost exactly the same but with a few settings turned up.
Had an extremely limited time with this card, I'll definitely give Nimez drivers a try in the future.
I'm still playing Warthunder at max settings on my $20 RX470 4GB getting 60 to 100 FPS up to today LOL
Dude thank you ao much people in some countries dont have leverage to buy expensive equipment so they go with lowest possible. I live in a third world country where equipment are really expensive and we are still stuck with 4 gb cards as well
im using the red devil, and i gotta say this card is stupidly insane, the number of titles you can still play on a decent performance low to mid insane.
On one of my computers my 3070ti oc die and i put my 580 8gb xfx and your right some times i had to reboot the computer like 5 times but when it works 💪 i running the games i play on it i ran perfectly. 5800x3d 2x8 3600 cl14 . I'm very happy with my new 4070 super . The funny part i have a cheap rx 460 4 gb to work on computers and it work every time i boot my 5800x3d pc. That's why I don't sale my old computer parts i save them for emergency purposes only ond fix computers especially the 460 4gb because it runs only in the gpu slot no power card.
I've been using the MSI RX 580 8gb Armor for 5 years now and I don't need more, and I can still game all the time.greetings from France
can u run r6 on 144 fps on low settings
Underrated card really. I always picked used RX 580 for cheap build if anyone asking for a draft.
RX 580 pack power and if they just playing single player games or emulators, it will more than enough to have decent gaming experience
for anyone tryna play warzone,you can get between 80-90 fps using the right settings.i get about 80-90 fps and i got a rx580 with a ryzen 5500 and 12 gigs of ram
This baby carried me during the pandemic, prices were crazy back then, and I found a powercolor one at a very reasonable price. i will use to build my niece a basic school computer desktop.
Remembered that this card is a 1080p beast back then. Still is. Seems graphical tech doesn't advancing as fast as the 2010s. My GTX 570 released in 2010, and 7 years later have been somewhat obsolete thanks to its incapability to properly use DX12 (driver side capability sucks, wouldn't count on it), and low VRAM (though the 2.5GB variant solves this issue).
Checking out new games in 2024, even Black Myth Wukong works pretty well on RX 580!
Perfect for 1080p60, although it's mostly low settings on modern games.
A proper, but still affordable step up for this card are probably RX 5600 XT. Similiar in performance to RTX 2060S while being a lot cheaper (in my area it's around 110$ for the 5600 XT and 150$ for 2060S).
Still using the 580. I gave it new pasta a week ago, luckily my ASUS model does not use cooling pads so i did not needed to change those
I had an Nvidia Geforce 770 but at some point it just broke down , couldn't use it. so I had one of my friend recommand me something from facebook marketplace. it was that card. one of the fan actully makes more then usual noise but i just put a blanket on my pc (not fully for it to still breath and not overheat) and that part is fine. I bought my radeon card at *40 CA$* . i still need to actually buy a new pc cause honestly its just overall starting to break down... but in the meantime im glad i bought that card... as far as im aware that card is actually better then what i had.
I have 3 RX 580's in 3 different pc's & i LOVE them.
i wanted to build a low end pc to play pc-exclusive games like phasmophobia, battlebit remastered, and portal with my friends and I think I will have a great time using this card!
Wow, man you have perfect selection of hardware for a review) I always return into your channel to make decision when buying old stuff (hello from ryzen 3600 😄, that by the way now in pair with RX580 8Gb) Best wishes to You!

bro my rx 580 gets 78 degrees playing GEOMETRY DASH WTF
rx 500 series known to run rather hot
My RX580 started crashing since last month. It's indeed a performer but there's just something with AMD GPUs since last year. So many posts in forums about their GPUs crashing with the HUNG error.
S.A.M. does work with the RX580. It works for the RX570 too. I've had both. The mobo has to be capable. Even if the drivers say that S.A.M is not turned on, if it's turned on in BIOS, it's running.
The motherboard is capable, every other recent AMD GPU that I played around with such as 5700 XT, 6600 XT and RX 6800 all have SAM. Once I install the RX 580 it isn't available, even with resizable bar enabled in the BIOS.
@@RATechYT I used to run a Gigabyte Intel 10th Gen Board. I had the "Above 4G, and Resize Bar setting" in BIOS. With the RX570, and 580, in the Adrenaline drivers, it never said it was Enabled. Always greyed out. But, (from a RUclips Vid) look in Device Manager/Display Adapter/Properties/Resources. If it's says "Large Memory Range" on top, S.A.M. is Enabled regardless what AMD Adrenaline says. It did it with both cards. I even benched them before and after. After was definitely faster.
@@Hoprgras If that's the case there is a chance it was enabled when I tested this card.
Im building a couple budget pcs to sell (xeon mobo cpu ram combos) and am looking for a decent gpu to pair with it. the 580's price tag on ali has definitely increased since last time I got 2 off there. I think the popularity of the 2048 cards boosted their sales and sellers caught on and upped prices. Sad to see, im just looking for 2 cards at around 50-60 each to pair with the xeons. I saw a 1060 6gb for $50 on craigslist and will probably go with that
hi guys great video, quick question someone may be able to answer, i dont want to use this for gaming but to use with a capture card from my xbox to the pc to record and stream will this be good?
Still using an RX 580 paired with my 32" HDTV. Tried using an RX 5700XT, but for some reason I kept getting frequent 1 or 2 second audio drops, and the screen overscan would keep failing and only use 95% of the screen, and I would have to keep toggling the HDMI scaler. So I went back to the RX 580, which never had that problem.
That's unfortunate.
5700xt needs 650w or better tier c power supply, low power supply causes weird sound stuff, some radeons the HDMI standard is not compatible, Displayport is more compatible but most TVs dont have displayport
I’m starting to build my first pc ever, do you recommend that I get this graphic card? I saw a lot of reviews on it on Amazon and a lot of people are saying good things about it, it costs $150 in my local currency and my budget for the entire pc is $800! Do you think it’s worth it or should aim for a better graphic card? Cause some people also recommend the rtx 3060 from ZOTAC Gaming which goes for $280! But it takes a lot from my budget 😅
Of course the 3060 is a much newer and more powerful card, it would make more sense to go with that one. In fact I'd forget about the RX 580 with your budget.
I don't know how much PC parts cost where you live, but given the RTX 3060 costs $280, it looks like the prices are the same as they are in the US. You easily can build yourself a rig with a R5 5600, RTX 3060 12 GB and 32 GB of memory for that amount of money. If your main focus is gaming, I'd even recommend the RX 7600, which is a cheaper and generally faster card, at least without ray tracing.
i just picked one up for £54 (including postage) to replace my gtx 1050 ti. given the price i got it for, i may be able to make this a free upgrade if i sell the 1050. the speed will be nice, but i'm also very excited to go from 4 to 8gb of vram. i'm hoping to upgrade my modded fallout 4 from the choppy 30-50fps i get rn :)
The RX580 is the AK-47 of budget cards: cheap, reliable champ of the people that does the basic thing you ask it to do.
I think the RX6700 XT will inherit that title next.
True rn im gonna be using the rx 580 for about a year that year im prob gonna save up the rx 6600
6700XT is great for texture packs, but the GPU part itself is the biggest weakness.
ID SUGGEST NOT WASTING TIME ON THIS ONE, YOU SHOULD GET I5 12400 OR 12600K, WHERE YOU GET UHD 770 WITH THE CHIP. THESE CARDS DON'T PERFORM BETTER THAN THAN THE INTEGRATED GPU.

@@RATechYT Oh wow! Good for you 😊
When I did my RX580 vs GTX 1060 Comparison, the RX580 was a hair faster. Also the extra RAM is certainly a bonus.
In the end, the extra heat was not welcome. Also the fan profiles are not what I always used to (depending on brand).
Sadly, it is much harder to find a GTX1060 when there are tons of RX580s available.
I was impressed by this MSI model thermals wise. I didn't need to increase the fan speed higher than 50%, it wasn't all that audible either.
The CSM requirement is definitely not true for all RX 580s. Maybe there's something wrong with the one you tested. My best guess is that it was an ex-mining card and one of the previous owners flashed the VBIOS to one that didn't have UEFI support. You can fix it by finding your RX 580 model (or one close to it) in the TPU VBIOS collection and flash it onto the card.
Yup, recently learned that it is related to the vBIOS.
baking af 74C found out that if you replace the fans with moded one gets quiet and colder from 70 to 57 and if i did undervolt probably will bump at 53 C and good quality thermal paste ofc.
74°C is a great temperature for a graphics card with a 50% fan speed.
5500XT-8GB and 6600 for those with a more flexible budget
5700 also
still rocking on this side

Does anyone know of a way to make an RX 580 run with ROCm on Windows? Yes, it's old, but it would be better than using the processor to play with A.I. and there are plenty of RX580s out there.
How can this card still do so good
at this point in time (mid 2024) i think Rx 580 is done as an interesting GPU...
i mean, yea... if you still have one, or want to build a secondary budget build then go for it...
But there are so so many better options nowadays, and (most important) more and more newer tittles wont run propperly (i mean games that won't run 1080p 30fps at low, so you'll be forced to 720p since FSR won't save your gpu in every tittle).

Hello bro please help me. Im building my first pc and the gpus that fit my budget are rx 580 8gb sapphire nitro+ it has good temps and physical condition but it was used in mining, theseller is reputable and goving me 2 months refund, repair warranty but not dead warranty meaning that if the card goes dead in 2 months he wont replace it. Second option i have is rx 580 4gb the seller said it hasn't been used for mining and is cheaper than the 8 gb variant, 3rd option is the gtx 970 4gb and 4th is 1060 6gb which is also not used in mining but it is expensive a bit. So what gpu should i buy which would last me a few years like 3-4-5 years. Thank you.
I can't help you with this decision since anything can happen with any GPU. I can tell you to pick one of these, and it might die within a few days (regardless of whether it was mined or not), so I don't want to take that responsibility, even though I bought plenty of cards that were used for mining and still function perfectly fine to this day.
Personally I'd either pick the 8 GB RX 580 or the 6 GB GTX 1060, performance wise those two are the best. Once again though, buy used parts only after checking the physical condition, 10-15 minute stress testing, and of course at your own risk.

@@Damian-th4zv Results depend on the resolution, if there's any upscaling etc, as well as the area that's being tested. If you fly through the exact areas that I tested in my video using high settings, the frame rate will definitely drop.

The frame rate in majority of games was already low enough so I wanted to show the best possible results of this card, I think it's clear that by increasing the settings the frame rate is going to drop. But yes, like I said in the end if you're okay with a console like experience you can increase a few settings or maybe even play more modern titles.
