EDIT: 19/03/01 my edited opinions appear below, after my original unedited review.
I use it for gaming. I'm not a framerate zealot so keep that in mind.
I left the HW settings at default so far, so as not to cook everything before it's time.
I haven't noticed the fan at all and running the utility shows it taking my gaming load in stride.
I replaced an R9 380 3G with this and the 8G memory lets me use better settings and stuff sparkles for a month or so till I adjust and start dreaming of the next GPU upgrade on a limited budget. :)
I always choose as much ram as possible for my budget for PC's and GPU's when selecting.
I had medium/high expectations(within reason) and it delivered. I'm a happy camper.
I got way more than I had, at less than I spent for the R9 a while ago. "Ohhhhh shiny!" :)
EDIT: 2019 March 1.
I removed 3 stars because the "RX 580" has serious issues @ 4k across all brands.
I have 2 Intel Z77 mobo's that do 4k@60Hz no problem on my display.
The RX 580 in my Intel Z77 mobo's causes POST errors. I wish I had checked that out first!
I have an Intel H390 mobo that does 4k@60Hz no problems.
I have an AMD R9 380X 3G that does 4k@60Hz no problem.
I can't even get 4k@30Hz, 1/2 of what is advertised, many others complain about 'only 4k@30Hz'.
I have tried lots of different cables after searching the net for answers, no go.
I have beefy power supplies in everything, it's NOT a power issue.
Evidently I am now among the growing hoard of unhappy RX 580 customers.
If you are lucky, as some are, you MAY get 4k @ 30Hz out of it.
If all you want/need is 1080P and have no immediate plans for a UHD/4k monitor, it works OK.
If you are reading this before your purchase "You have been warned!"
