anyone using the rx 590 gme in their system?

[Dr. Dro]

WTF you talking about it is literally the same silicon as the 590 barring slightly lower clocks

It is not the same silicon, the 590 GME has the 14 nm Polaris 20 used in the RX 580. Only the global release RX 590 has the newer 12 nm Polaris 30 core.

spot on. its all opinion based but no one has this card. also snobbery I think. I like older tech. I dont play newer games anyway. ill play batman arkham asylum knight and city. gta iv . never played cyberpunk or all the copy/paste list that most do. I dont need ultra settings at all.

im not a gamer, and little patience to play game. many times, I can go a week without playing, many times no more then 5-7 minutes.

all the posts here are of no one who has/uses the card.

I have many dvd games as well. I dont know many of the new games at all.

I understand you are not a serious gamer, but from the back and forth you should have caught your eye on something very important: It's on life support and buying one of these from marketplaces/Chinese sellers is like playing Russian roulette - there's a 99.9% likelihood it's been pulled from active duty in an Ethereum mining farm and it's been run down to an inch of its useful life. If you do not mind an older, used GPU, buy a GTX 1070 Ti or 1080. Those are inexpensive these days and were not popular for cryptocurrency mining, so you'll get decent performance on your older games, a few extra months of current release driver support and a more reliable product.

The RX 400/500 series, as well as RX Vega and Radeon VII series were generally poor performers at games, but they were either cheap (RX cards) or very powerful for compute and number crunching (Vega, VII cards), which meant that cryptocurrency miners bought them by the shipment - often 100,000+ cards per order, just to mine Ethereum on them, running them for years on end at full load with no maintenance, and retiring/recycling their "tooling" as it started to malfunction.

Ultimately it's up to you to listen to our advice or not. If you feel like it's worth the risk, best of luck to you brother. As far as performance goes, it's 1:1 with the RX 580. No secret there. It will run games the exact same, so if you want an idea of what to expect gaming-wise, here you go:

I realize id buy a used 1070 or whatever, but I hate nvidia after what they did to evga.

card says new. so they took these cards, mined them then clean them and sell as new?

Yes when truthfully they are 'refurbished'

It's your money.

If you get any mined gpu it will most likely need a re-paste, re-pad, and a bios re-flash, and since like 2017/18 many come here needing help with it. That is where @Imperator @VuurVOS @Count von Schwalbe, @eidairaman1 (myself) and maybe @Marcus L can assist you with flashing as long as it is not pcb or ic damaged.
