I was wondering which graphic card I should buy. The Rx 480 costs 249€ in my country and the Rx 470 costs 245€ (the 4Gb version costs 221€). Would I be able to max out the game with a Rx 470 with 8Gb? Would be the 480 4gb version not enough for the future? I cant deal with this D:
Thanks for the help

These are 1080p cards, as such 4gb is enough. If your budget is tight, get the 4gb 470, otherwise get the 4gb 480. Don't worry about the future. So much can change that it's pointless to purchase something in 2016 for something that may or may not happen in 2018 or 2019. For example, if you bought a 4k monitor, a 470 even with 8gb still isn't going to be enough to game at 4k.

Thanks for your reply, I think I will get the 480 because I want it to last at least 4 years
