A gaming card that looks cool while keeping cool and pumping out polygons like no tomorrow.By IGN
The RX 580 from Gigabyte is a fantastic bang-for-your-buck GPU. The high-end cards from the top manufacturers usually perform similarly, so buying designs usually come down to aesthetics, software, warranty, etc. Given this situation the Aorus is certainly a great GPU that is well-built, has aggressive looks with great lighting, and performs well while being whisper-quiet at all times, even under full load.Good luck finding one for MSRP though.
By TechAdvisor
The Asus ROG Strix Radeon RX 580 TOP Edition 8GB is one of the most expensive Radeon RX 580 cards available, but offers excellent performance delivering similar overall frame rates to an overclocked Nvidia GTX 1060, although this will of course depend on which games you play. The board offers superb build quality and a great selection of features including programmable lighting effects and bundled overclocking software. It’s sheer size may be a problem for some smaller cases, however, and audible coil whine can occasionally spoil the experience.By TechRadar
Undoubtedly this isn’t the card we expected AMD to launch right now. The RX 580, is no Titan killer, nor does it change the GPU ecosphere in any meaningful way, however it just slips in, taking back that value crown, away from Nvidia’s GTX 1060.By Notebookcheck
Those who do not want an Nvidia GPU and are on the lookout for a good graphics card that costs no more than 300 Euros (~$344) will not be disappointed with the Asus ROG Strix Radeon RX 580.Besides the good cooling solution, the GPU also features eye-catching RGB effects.
Above we have shown the overview and depth specifications of both the graphics card. Now, we are sharing the full review of both graphics cards.
OVERVIEW
GTX 980 | RX 580 | |
S.Proces/ C.Cores | 2048 | 2304 |
Base Clock | 1126 MHz | 1257 MHz |
Boost Clock | 1216 MHz | 1340 MHz |
Memory | 4GB GDDR5 | 8GB GDDR5 |
Interface | 256-Bit | 256-Bit |
Bandwidth | 224 GB/S | 256 GB/S |
NOTE – Things like Cuda cores, stream processors, and clock speeds are not directly comparable because both are based on different architectures. ![]() |
It’s worth noting the RX 580 is only available in both 8GB version, and GTX 980 is only available in 4GB version. So, it’s not got the same amount of GDDR5 memory.
RX 580 has more Base and Boost clock than GTX 980. RX 580 is also ahead in the bandwidth.
Most people will think that RX 580 is the winner because of more memory. When you see the results of GTX 980, it will just leave you in shock. But RX 580 is more futureproof than GTX 980 because of that extra memory.
PERFORMANCE
For testing I’m using the MSI Armor Radeon RX 580 8GB OC @1540MHz and MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 980 4GB OC @1500MHz. Expect slightly different results with different models.
The system that I’m testing with has an Intel i9-9900K CPU in an Asrock Z390 TAICHI Ultimate motherboard running at 5.0GHz, along with Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro Series 2*8GB DDR4 3000MHz. And the operating system is Windows 10 Pro – 64Bit. This same system was used to test both graphics cards.
Let’s get into the results:
Battlefield 5
Battlefield 5 was tested in campaign mode with high settings rather than multiplayer as I find it easier to reproduce the test run and it seems to be less CPU intensive. In this game the RX 580 appears to be winning, the average frame rates of both are extremely close together.
Devil May Cry 5
Devil May Cry 5 was tested with high settings using the built in benchmark, and in this game the RX 580 was coming out ahead in all instances. At 1080p, RX 580 was just 5FPS ahead and at 1440p, it was 2FPS faster.
DOOM
DOOM was tested with the built in benchmark at high settings, and at all resolutions the the RX 580 was a fair bit ahead. At 1080p, the RX 580 was only 6FPS ahead and 4FPS at 1440p.
Far Cry 5
Far Cry 5 was tested using the Ulletical benchmark with all settings set to high, and this game was consistently performing better with the RX 580 in terms of average frame rates.
Ghost Recon
Ghost Recon was tested using the replay feature with the same replay file, and at high settings the GTX 980 was coming out ahead in both resolutions. At 1080p, we’re looking at 3FPS faster with the GTX 980. At 1440p, there was only a difference of 2FPS.
Hitman 2
Hitman 2 was tested in the practice range with high settings, as this allows me to replicate the test accurately compared to playing with bots or other players. Again the RX 580 was coming out ahead in both resolutions.
Metro Exodus
Metro Exodus was tested with the built in benchmark at high settings, and in this game there was only 1FPS difference at both resolutions. The game was smooth on both graphics card.
Rage 2
Rage 2 was tested using the built in benchmark with high settings, and the results between the two were much closer together here, within a frame of each other at 1080p and 1440p.
Witcher: Wild Hunt
This game was tested using the replay feature with the same replay file, and at 1080p, I was seeing RX 580 was 3FPS faster than GTX 980. At 1440, GTX 980 was winning with just 1FPS faster.
Woifenstein
Woifenstein is a resource intensive game which I found to play well on both cards even at 1440p with very high settings. I think it runs pretty well as long as you’re getting more than 60FPS.
WHICH TO BUY?
I’ve only tested games though, I’m suspecting that the RX 580 may be more useful when it comes to compute tasks, especially things that can better utilize that 16gb of HBM2 memory. Either way I think it’s great to see a graphics card capable of 1440p gaming with good settings from AMD.
Personally, I will choose RX 580 because it is cheaper and performing good, when compared to GTX 980.
GeForce GTX 590 vs GeForce GTX 980 Graphics cards Comparison
If you are going to buy a new graphics card and are choosing between GeForce GTX 590 and GeForce GTX 980, there are a couple of things to consider. Cards with more VRAM in general perform better and allow you to play on higher graphics settings. Size also makes a difference. A model with a large heatsink can occupy up to three expansion slots on a motherboard. Be sure you have enough room in your PC case. When comparing GPUs with different architectures, more processing cores and even higher TFLOPS will not always translate to better performance. To help you decide which GPU you need, we have measured frame rates in a number of popular games. For more on how the GeForce GTX 590 stacks up against GeForce GTX 980, check out specs charts below.
