Hello can anyone advice me to choose cheap video card rx 480, gtx 1060 or anything else that can run game on 1440p (2560x1440p) resolution with 40-50 fps high to very high setting like gta v, fallout 4, without any msaa vsync always off, droping fps doesnt bother me too much
And currently i have
i5 6400
8gb ddr4
R9 380x
And run:
Gta v on very high setting @ 1080p 55-38fps (fps drop on very high grass) no msaa no vsync
Fallout 4 on low to ultra setting @ 1080p 55-43 no vsync (using mod)
I am using frame rate target control to 55 fps
Thank you:)

For the games you gave, the GTX 1060 crushes the RX 480. You can see performance tests here...

If you want to buy the GTX 1060 with an aftermarket cooler, I strongly suggest the MSI Gaming or Gaming X version. The best thing about them is that you can switch between 3 performance modes to balance between performance and silence.
