Hi guys
Im planning to buy RX480 but i noticed that XFX has manufactory overclocked gpu, i heared that overclocking reduces hpu lifespan, so it would be better to go for another brand.
And i heared about the pci thingy problem, my motherboard is z170-a, am i going to face any of ?
I forget to mention, am i going to face a problem using rx480 with i5 6600k?
 
Solution
The overclock applied by manufacturer don't the decrease the lifespan in any significant way as more voltage is not being applied to the card itself. Your system appears to be compatible assuming your power supply can deliver at least 500w.
