AMD Radeon RX 570 4GB

The Gigabyte Aorus is a gorgeous, well-performing graphics card. The Radeon RX 570 is the best sub-$200 gaming option around—but it isn't much of a step up over the RX 470.

If you are interested in RGB and are all about the light shows within your system, this card does not match up to expectations. It has one little area which has an area that you can control, but it is nowhere near as nice as the bigger STRIX cards which are some of the nicest and best implemented RGB cards on the market.

ASUS delivers a solid implementation of the RX 570 but it is only worth considering if the price falls closer to RX 570s from rival brands and cheaper RX 470 equivalents aren't available.

A real brute of a mid-range GPU, the RX 570 is a great addition to the AMD lineup. But watch the competition's pricing closely.

Ultimately, the AMD Radeon RX 500 series cards are iterative updates that offer more performance at every market segment. They don’t offer huge, generational leaps in performance versus the RX 400 series, but are measurable upgrades nonetheless, that offer more features and support for the latest technologies, that older cards lack.

AMD’s RX 570 is a sub-$200 video card even a hardcore gamer can love.

As the card doesn’t make a lot of noise, it won’t cause problems to the user. The only issue is the price, which seems to be the case for most graphic cards these days, thanks to the mining craze. Even though the card is a solid performer for 1080p gaming, you’ll have to wait a bit if you’re on a tight budget in order to satisfy your gaming itch.

Great price to performance ratio, capable of running even the latest triple-A games at high graphics settings without feeling too sluggish.

The ASUS Strictly Radeon RX570 performed well throughout our testing, considering it's one of the mid-range powerful graphics cards out there in the market. It is the beast when it comes to performance and the fact it is only over 9.5-inches long and...

The Asus ROG Strix Radeon RX 570 is a nice addition to the RX 570 market. It offered good frame rates at 1920x1080. Many games even ran quite well even at 2560x1440. No matter what the resolution, it always delivered impressive frame rates. Performance...

So after a wide range of tests, I'm left a little baffled by this card. Despite being based being based on a more mature version of the same silicon, performance of the ASUS STRIX RX 570 seems to just match or slightly lag behind that of the PowerColor...
