So I'm in the market for a new video card and I read reviews of the RX 480 saying that the MSRP was $200. I can't find the thing for less than $230, and that's for the slower 4GB model, not the 8GB model blowing up benchmarks. Looking at price/performance graphs on my usual sites are all fucking screwy because they're using MSRP, not actual prices.

I was looking to spend $200, but I'm wiling to go $250 if there is enough of a performance boost to make it worthwhile. What are the best buys for those two price points? Doesn't matter if it's AMD or nVidia.

Or should I just wait - will these cards be any cheaper in the future?

Can't you basically download more memory for a 4GB model by just flashing it?

There is no competition between the two anymore. AMD makes low-end cards for people on a strict budget, Nvidia makes high-end cards for people with extra money that want a system that can get the job done. If you're not into gaming and want a dedicated GPU, get AMD, if you're into gaming get Nvidia, there is no competition, they are two separate vendors with completely different target audiences.
