Hey! So I'm planning a new PC build and I did decide to go with the Radeon RX 480 MSI Gaming 4GB but Apparently The XFX RX 480 GTR 8GB is twice as better with performance and cooling for literally $10 to $20 more.
I only have another week until I get all the parts so please help me decide :)
Just to give you an idea I do a lot of video editing and gaming.
I would've been happy just with the MSI 4GB but if I can get twice the performance for $20 then I will, so please enlighten me, do I really need to go to an 8GB?

you will in fact NOT double the performance going from 4 to 8 gb

So I should stick with the MSI 4GB? Also the MSI has a lower clock speed as well so I don't know... I mean I know you can overclock it so...

as long as it has a good cooler you can set your core to match any of those cards yourself for free

for $10 more I would grab the 8gb
