MSI VGA Graphic Cards RX 580 ARMOR 8G OC

I am normally not one to rant but the delivery on this product through AZML US was completely ridiculous. First off, the first day I placed the order and it had been processed and shipped I had tracking info the entire time. About 24 hrs pass and It keeps saying sorry we cannot track your package at this time. I was checking very frequently because I was excited to put this new GPU in my rig and start gaming. If I had not checked to see if they had updated it every half an hour or more someone could have just walked up and taken the box. AZML US left the package at the bottom of the staircase (apartment complex / condo)!?!? They couldn't take the extra 20 seconds or so to walk up the stairs and even knock?!?!? There was no knock or anything they simply set it down took a picture and left! Lucky I had checked at the right time and saw with the mapping they where a few stops away, even then it was already sitting on the bottom of the staircase for anyone to come and snag without me knowing at all. I will NEVER use AZML US again, this is not the first time something ridiculous has happened with shipping. Actually I will be going to Newegg from here on out seeing as how nothing this ludacris has happened when ordering from them before. Couldn't even select pick up at local Fedex/Ups etc. Other than that, I am pleased with the product even more so than expected, hopefully I can get this thing in action and tested! Product is great. Delivery is poor (AZML US) GET A GRIP

The great price and AMD promotion for 2 free games drew me to this card, as well as the good reputation of MSI products. Just wondering, did anyone receive their code for their games yet? I haven't yet and am wondering about it (want to get Resident Evil 2 which releases in late January).Wow, what can I say but wow, amazing upgrade to my now 6 year old custom build PC. Spent less than $200 (after pending rebate) for a major increase in graphics performance (coming from a GTX 670 which was a top performer in its class when I bought it years ago lol). Very nice looking and sturdy gpu that runs more quiet than any of my older cards. Bought it mainly so that I could run my new LG Ultrawide 3440 x 1440 monitor with no worries (working magically so far!), and then discovered the amazingness that is 21:9 gaming! I've seen a few videos on it but never really intended that for this card, but just wow, the higher level of immersion that I am experiencing at 3440 x 1440 is just incredible, and this card runs at that resolution for Final Fantasy XV (demo) with no issues, and I feel looks a lot better than I remember it when I played the game on PS4 ^_^. My large and mostly unplayed library of Steam games are old and pretty much NO game will even tax this card, thus downloading the Final Fantasy XV demo. Will probably update this review as well as my LG Ultrawide monitor review as the months go by~

with the right CPU and 16 gig of at least 2400 ram you can run almost any brand new Triple A title on Ultra!!! It's also much easier to find, and cheaper to buy the monitors that go with AMD "freesync" I believe is it's name, than to try and find a nice monitor with G-Sync, and I'm a sucker for a 35" ultra wide!! I can't even play on a normal 16:9 anymoreThis may not be a popular opinion... and I don't know if it's the type of games I play or what, but I get comparable game benchmarks using a rx580 8gig paired with a RYZEN 17x or 18X, as I do with 8th gen I7 with a GTX 1070 (founders edition). The latter usually comes out a little ahead but not by a noticeable amount, and it darn well BETTER come out ahead! those components are almost twice the price. I do get more screen tearing on the harder games with the nVidia even if the FPS is a little higher due to all my monitors being AMD friendly. Personally id rather have average's in the 50-60 FPS with NO screen tearing, than 60-80 FPS with noticeable tearing

Pros: As far as frames per $$, this thing takes the cake. Runs most newer games on 1440 @ 50-60 fps on high settings. AMD FreeSync looks nice, too, given your monitor supports it. This card is an excellent value and will give you the most fps if you have $200 to spend on a card.Cons: Imagine you put a horse saddle on a Boeing 747 jet engine and tried it ride it around your house... That's what noise this card makes. Okay, maybe not as loud as a jet but let's just say I can walk in other rooms of my house and still hear the thing. On a moderate overclock, it's very loud. On stock settings, it's still loud, but bearable. I don't think my card is defective, just doesn't have a heat sync up to par with a card like the Gaming X. Other than this, the card sags a tiny bit. You can remedy this by routing it's 8 pin power cable from above instead of below - that's what I did.Overall, it's a great card if you can handle the noise. I think I'm going to return it and bump my card budget up to $300 to get something a bit quieter. If your budget is firm at $200, though, go ahead and jump on this card - the noise can be gotten used to and you won't regret the performance you get.

I like this video card for the price. This was my first real investment in a video card since 17 years ago.My only complain will be if you use this video card with Windows 8.1 you won't be able to stream videos in Discord. You are going to get a dark image of your stream for the viewers not you. Even if you update the Windows 8.1 or the ATI video card Drivers, nothing will happen. The only solution I find was updating to Windows 10. Something else, the AMD Radeon Software I think they don't like Intel I5 cpu, maybe they want me to upgrade to AMD Rysen (marketing).I was testing connecting two cellphones to OBS Studio and the system went down with some apps. I dont know if the video card was responsible.It is still a good card and it costs less now.(UPDATE)This video card streams works great in Discord, but you need Windows 10.
