Should buy soon i5 6500 3,2 Ghz. 8gb of DDR4 hyperx with option to upgrade 8gb more in probably a year, ASUS MB - SOCKET 1151 - H110M-K motherboard and 500W Cooler Master power supply. Now, since price is a thing, I narrowed GPU to either rx470 or rx480(probably Saphire.

Since I dont plan to change monitor soon and he is enough for 1080p(maybe buy some for 1440 resolution in future) and dont plan to go over that, is 470 good enough for gaming in next few years in that resolution or should I go for 480?

And does 4gb or 8gb of VRAM on both of those cards makes any real difference there since 8gb is way more expensive variant of the card?

I mostly play RPGs like Skyrim, Fallout and Witcher so I need best card that could smoothly run similar games like that in the future in my resolution.

The 1060 6 GB is better than the 480, the 3 GB 1060 is also very good and is fine for 1080.
