Hi, I currently play a lot of low requirement games, e.g Payday 2, Runescape 3 (People still play this, right?!) Minecraft, Skyrim etc. However, I do own games such as ARK and GTA5 which I'd like to play more smoothly (Currently get about 30fps in GTA5 and less than that in Ark, I currently have an FX 6300 CPU and 650 Ti(not the greatest, but still)
My choices were;
Sapphire Nitro RX 480 4gb/8gb version
Zotac GTX 1060 Mini (Cheapest version)
Rx 470 when it comes out
MSI GeForce GTX 970 Black White OC
roughly £200-250 budget
If it makes any difference, I'm looking to upgrade to Skylake or Haswell at the end of this year so the CPU won't be so much of a problem.
I don't have a Gysync/Freesync monitor though I'd possibly be more inclined to go Freesync just because it's cheaper.
I am considering the 1060 just because I'm impatient and it seems to be easier to find stock. I'll probably continue to have this GPU for 2-3 years, though I probably won't be playing super demanding games, which is why I'm unsure of 4gb v 8gb version (The slightly lower clocks etc don't seem to be considerable)
Thanks for any and all help
