team AMD here and this is a good buy. love how power efficient nVidia is. i'd probably take a RX 470/570 over this...but doubt I could find one at this price (cheapest i see on is $180). would recommend this over a $100-$140 1050/1050ti or 460/560 any day -- definitely worth the money to go next tier if your PSU can support it and you don't need a low profile card!
this is $185 on with a game (Ghost Recon) if you happen to be looking to buy that game it is a nudge in the right direction. the jet deal @Casecutter mentioned above on the 570 is pretty enticing!
^ If you saw my stance on the RX 5X0... welcome marginal performance but not on scale given the price hike (more holding pattern). Especially looking at it against the 4X0 series "move them out" rebates we saw thru March-April.
As to the of 580's 8Gb I'm more tolerating as some are not just "revamps" but new to the OEM's moving them into the channel. It's not the pricing I'd like... but that should change as summer approaches. The 570 4Gb different story, RGT set a $170 MSRP (and their "supposed reference" is a dual fan with aluminum extrusion), but still many of the entry construction are $190+ (yes the MSI ARMOR is that). There aren't any 570's at $170 in the market (at in stock to purchase), and RGT and their OEM's need to be aggressive now!

Temporarily no longer a deal being now $15 more... it's now more just the going price.
Jet.com you can get a MSI RX 570 ARMOR 4Gb OC for $161.50, when you use the their 15% off. *No Rebate* either.
