Hi guys,

I'm planning to get a RX480 for my 5,1 Mac Pro... it's currently running a GTX680.

Can someone suggest a bang for buck RX480 card to buy?

Many thanks in advance.

P.S. I'm running a 30" Cinema Display, so I guess need that DVI-Dual Link port.

The 3-4 week future RX 480. :) The RX 580 is due in the next week or so. May be an initial spike on its price, but in several weeks the RX 480 is probably going to be pragmatically priced lower at most outlets due to being superseded.

RX 580 is seems to be a 'version 1.5" of the RX 480. A decent chance more bugs are worked out even if there is no revolutionary increase in performance.
