jayz 2 cents got a video that the GTR oc's better than any rx 480.

XFX slightly better but the power issue still exist but seriously not a big deal.

for AMD users, i highly recommended match with higher end processor

Jayz 480 GTR is definitely silicon lottery, i've seen 480 GTR barely overclock to 1400mhz and some get to 75c-80c at stock.
But it is one of the best build RX-480 alongside 480 Strix and maybe Nitro.

MSI Gaming is no slouch either, so try to pick the cheapest between all these 4 cards.
From Haswell Core-i3 is good enough for Polaris imo, for older gen you need i5 at least from my experience.
Did you try reinstall the driver? Or use DDU.

I don't know how to answer this, 8GB is probably the better choice in the long run but when? I know the new RE is very heavy on texture but the impact is much smaller when you turn off shadow caching iirc.

If you want a tier higher overall performance the 4GB 480 is the better choice than 8GB 470 imo.

RX 6500 XT unofficial name would be WTF AMD edition.
Even GTX 1660 make more sense than this card.

Pleass don't. Just hold it out. Just maybe you'll be at the very least move up to a 1660 or 2060 if the prices keep falling.

If not urgent, better wait till the drop in price is reflected in Malaysia market.
If can't wait, I see 2050 can get below 2k and 3060 around 2k

Coming from a 2700X, I'd experienced CPU bottleneck in games like Warzone. Older Ubisoft titles such as Division 2 and Wildlands are fine.

You can determine the bottleneck yourself by monitoring the CPU/GPU usage, and decide whether or not you actually need that upgrade with the games you're actually playing. 5600 non-X will be a very affordable upgrade.
