Hi everyone

Im going to buy my first budget gaming build soon.

I picked this part for my build:

CPU: Core i3-7100
MB: MSI H110M Pro-D
RAM: 2x 4GB G.Skill DDR4 2400
PSU: 480W 80+ Bronze

and I'm now just stuck between Gigabyte RX 570 Gaming 4GB or MSI GTX 1060 3G OC for choosing my graphic card.

Im going to play all new 2016 & 2017 games at 900p or 1080p resolution with high to ultra settings.

I heard the GTX 1060 3G is a little more powerful than RX 570 (like 2-3%)
but i worry about 3GB VRAM for future games. RX 570 have 4GB of VRAM.

So, which card you guys suggest just for games (Current games and Future)???
 
Solution
As mentioned above, the g4560 is almost similar in performance at half the price. Atleast thats how it is in most parts of the world, not sure about your location. So you can save some money there.
Ryzen 1200 would be a very good choice indeed as its a true quadcore. But if you can wait for a while, once the cheap b360 motherboards launch, the 8100 will be hard to beat it that price range.
On a side note, look for a good deal on RX580 instead of the RX570.
You should start a build thread as I would change that build. The 7100 performs only a little better than the G4560 which is nearly 1/2 the price. For 7100 money you should get a better Ryzen build. If you give full budget we may be able to squeeze in a better gpu than you expect.

oh, thanks for asnwer :)
both card performs almost the same overall, but I think RX 570's additional 1GB VRAM will be come in handy in the future!
plus, in my country, both cards costs almost at same price!!

i3 7100 isnt just enough?
how about building a Ryzen 3 1200? is that a better choice pairing with RX 570 or GTX 1060 3G in games???
