As this card is based on the same RDNA1 architecture as the 5700 series AMD has had months to optimize performance. It isn't likely the overall rankings will change much unless the new consoles bring a major shift in game developer optimization priorities.
Given the average performance value of this card, it seems to me gamers who want a budget card for 1080p are better off, waiting for the xbox series S !?
Because the 4gb version is ~$30 cheaper and some gamers like monster hunter or quiet computing. The bottom line is that these products are far enough down the pricing totem pole that a good rebate or bundle can sway people pretty easily--at this range you're hunting minimally enjoyable functionality, not future proofing. Personally, I'm holding out until at least ampere arrives before I start throwing money around again.

"the company is also bundling the forthcoming “Master Edition” of Monster Hunter: Iceborne. This is the Iceborne expansion bundled with the base game"They'd better reduce price by $10-20 to be price-competitive with 1650 Super.

Anybody seen any comparisons of IDLE power use of real cards?I'd like to choose the one with least among 570, 580, 590 or 5500.
Are all the reviews like this one, idle power use against manuf. ref. cards?
