Nice! I just bought the Nitro last week for thanksgiving (US) for $209. Good deal I think considering I first found it for $280ish. It should arrive this Friday so I'm pumped!
Thats a heck of a price ! well done.
Same
I also got it for 209 good deal
I set up the new card and it performs really well! I haven't done benchmarks, but it runs extremely quiet and of course there's a slight temperature increase around the PC in general, but I expected that going from Nvidia 740 to an RX 580. Real world performance in games is great! No complaints!
Just got mine for 150€
Subbed, this comparison was exactly what i was looking for. Thanks.
So basically the nitro + has better power delivery, better cooling, is quieter and slightly better overall clock speed for 15% higher cost.
I had the pulse its the same thing lol overlocked like a champ too
its the same
Mazatzin Keej it’s not the same, the nitro edition is way better
Right now the nitro is cheaper than the pulse. That's why I came to this video.
@@cosmicgamer1262 where i live (england) the pulse is far cheaper than the nitro.
Perfect. This was just what I was looking for. I have been considering picking up the 580 and the price difference between the Pulse and Nitro+ is significant in my area.
Alot of the RX cards are appearing on eBay, this video helps alot thank you.
I bought my Nitro+ at launch for MSRP (249)..it runs at 1411 on the better bios switch.
The other bios was modded for mining.
I got my money back from mining during the day when at work..and mining at night.
And enjoying gaming in the evening..a decent 1440p card
Thats what I needed. Thank you man !
biggest confusion cleared, nicely explained....ty
Good review, i'm planning to buy the pulse edition pretty soon.
I got one today for 140 dude was buy it feb 2019
im verry happy
This is how an informational vid should be done!
Awesome comparison, dude
This channel is SO UNDERRATED, welldone!
Bought the Nitro+ version because AlphaCool make a NexXxos GPX water block to fit it perfectly and can use the stock back plate with it.
Great video! Thanks
I bought my pulse 95$ here in my country. I'm satisfied af
I've got NZXT Quiet(Kinda sound proof) Case so the "little" noise added doesn't matter to me :D
i just got 2 used pulses for 300 usd to play fallout 4, pretty happy as i got a massive upgrade from the r9 280 i was using and didnt break the bank buying a gpu, i can run the game at 4k high settings around 60 fps and 1440 high at around 70fps with xfire, my 280 was doing 1080 around 55 fps, they are loud at 4k but they are working hard
Great comparison, but there's a couple more interesting details: the 6-pin power connector on the nitro+ is optional. Also you can buy nitro gear accessories for the nitro+ and the pulse, but the is pulse only supports the replacement fans while the nitro supports the fans and the custom backplate. Finally I heard these cards are undervolt very well but I haven't looked into that.
I have that one ,if i dont conect 1x6 pin what will hapen .Can u tell me please?
So i can just plugged the 6+2 power pin? will there be any difference if i plugged the 6 pin as well?
Please let us know about Nitro gear accessories. Thank you
@@PanduBiasramadhan did you try this my friend ? only plug 6+2 power pin ?
For anyone wondering, I've seen plenty of people stating online that the 6-pin is really only needed for overclocking the card. I've bought a 580 Nitro+ 4gb and I'll report back in a few weeks once my PC is all put together.
my rx 580 nitro plus, still rocking till these day!
Nice content with loads of information ty :)
you didnt mention the pulse also has the tech to add a 2nd card without the crosswire id love to see a test with 2 cards
I have the 4GB Pulse edition, and it’s awesome :D
could you leave the graphics on screen longer and when comparative information, leaving them on the screen helps because you keep talking while you hasve to remember what the comparitive information was.
ty for clearing things up for me
I have the pulse and it was much cheaper in my area than the nitro+ .. I'm happy with it
Are u happy till now ?
Is it still working?
@@no_sauz_no_lyfe1420 imao 😂, This comment 😂 😂
still happy with it?
@@chloee7532 I bought rx590 pulse too 1 year ago and it works fine
Thanks for sharing!!! You are pretty good buddy!!! I have a mac pro 5,1 2010. Running Sierra 10.2. Which card should I get to run a Samsung 49" curved monitor?
For a Mac Pro 5,1 upgrade, basically just for mining and photo/audio editing... would both RX’s be sufficient, or is the Pulse more suited?
Thank you very much!
There is a very big difference between the Pulse versions and the Nitro+ versions, the Nitro+ plus cards use cherry picked gpu's to ensure max performance and the highest stable clock speeds. On a 580 for example they overclock to 1550 on the core without breaking sweat.
Thanks that was helpful
I have a pulse and I paid 185.00 US for it. So far it is doing very well for me.
nice video i think i will go with pulse because it is 30 usd cheaper in my country and the performance is slightly similar to nitro+. thanks tho great video loved it
dostum ne yaptın pulse versiyonunu aldın mı aldıysan memnun musun?
super useful. thanks.
so i have nitro+ ,and have this bios switch , and the card says that its multiple gpu , and you said if accidentaly break ''one of my card's bios'' does that mean that the nitro+ is 2 gpu's combined in 1 and can work separate ?
They are not selling the Pulse in my country, but the Nitro+ is really cheap, even cheaper than Asrock's Phantom.
Fucking finally a good comparison/review on this card, is there more information about the "RX 590 Nitro+" vs "RX 590 Pulse" ?
Please which driver version is stable for the graphics card rx580 sapphire
No one has mentioned this pulse has crossfire tech or even tried 2x these to see how it performs. I want to use 2 as was told I dont need any xtra wires or plug because the tech is in the system please please advise or review
Just bought a Sapphire Nitro + RX 580 8GB for $120. Now that's what I call a bargain!
Just got one for $150. Cheers
My friends getting a used one for 130$ what a steal
Got mine for $58
@@HazrdHazrd how 😂
Just copped one at 50$
Hi is the pulse good for 4k video editing in premierre pro?
I just bought the Nitro + 590 because i got 3 games with it. When i get my taxes im going to hand it down to my daughter and get something with a bit more oomph. Its a nice card though i recommend it to anyone needing a gpu on a budget. Its 259$ american and you get The Division 2, Resident evil 2 (remake) and Devil may cry 5 with it until april 6th the game deal is going.
D K I recently been looking at graphics cards because I’m going to build a new pc soon I might have to hop on that it’s a bank for your buck but I have a question can that Gpu be paired with a ryzen 7 2700x?
How long did you have to wait for the coupon code for the games?
@@perfusioninvader5020 from new egg you got them 24 hours after yyou get order confirmation. from amazon you get them when the items are delivered. You cannot use them until you have the hardware in your computer and you run an app to detect the hardware so just be patient. then it took a few days for the resident evil and devil may cry games to be ready to claim but the division 2 was ready right away.
🙂 thx for the detailed comparisons 🦃🇺🇸
Is sapphire better or msi and other brands are better for GPU (rx580)??
Is there any difference between nitro+ 8gb and sapphire pulse rx580???
if your going to be gaming at 1080p and playing games like CSGO, team fortress, quake champion ( on low/med), Overwatch and other less demanding games. THESE cards are perfect. I really like the Nitro+. Im thinking about grabbing one and put it against my 1080 ( of course i know which one will win). But i just wanna do it anyway!
The 580 can easily handle more demanding games at 1080p and even some 1440p gaming... You must be thinking of the rx 560 which is made for lesser demanding titles
@@croewen4720 generally people say the nitro plus is the best rx 5xx card you can get but the black core seems pretty good. What's the price difference between that and the nitro?
@@croewen4720 and how much is the nitro?
@@croewen4720 If the xfx model you're talking about is the 8gb version, I would just go with that. You can pony up the extra cash for the nitro 8gb for the slight increase in performance, cooling and noise reduction but you can't go wrong either way.
I need a bit of Help, do i need for saphire version with 8+6 pins to connect both 8 and 6 or Is 8 just enough? (3:40)
Is the rx 580 pulse lite the same as normal pulse because the lite is 30bucks cheaper and I’m not sure which to get
Best review, with data and charts.
hi, i'm discovering that they don't output audio at all on my macpro... disappointing !!!
is sapphire pulse Radeon™ RX 580 and razer x core compatible with mac?
I have questions. If I use only 8 pin, what happened?
I think if you overlooked, then use 8+6 pin? Or immediately i need use 8+6 ? Help!
I bought used rx580 nitro+ installed card ran for 30 min played one game for 10 mins for testing im using 8 pins no issue I think it's for over clocking
@@shaheryar8603 same :)
Just got the Sapphire RX 580 8gb pulse from Amazon at 184.99 USD... It's a Beast!!
-Aboslutely Zero Noice on the fans.
-Max temps never got over 59° C.
-TDP never got over 120w.
-Everything maxed Out at 1080p/60fps guaranteed.
❤ Go for it If you plan on getting one!!!
@son of god 316 extra wattage in case you need to overclock your GPU.
@son of god 316 Probably not. The manufacturer recomends a 550w PSU minimum for the pulse, the nitro + requires even more juice. My pulse consumes 125w under load yours can get up to 160w or so which is a lot for a 450 PSU. Get a better PSU 550w minimum Corsair or seasonic.
Danicolasol tomorrow i will get the rx 590 nitro Saphire blue edition for 200€!!!
the nitro+ is cheaper at $215 than the pulse which is at $220 right now. It was 200 flat up until a couple of weeks ago
I can't find RX590 Pulse, so I brought RX590 Nitro+ Special Edition and it has awesome bluish color and good performance
i bought the gold edition one
@@orangeyellowyy nice!
Can the Sapphire RX580 Pulse run off a single six pin power cable?
thanks for sharing the video. Which one better, Saphire vs MSI? thanks
depends if you are talking rx 580 armor edition DONT it get super hot and super noisy but the X edition is actually really good and in my honest opinion better than the nitro but not enougn to make it worth 40 bucks more sooooo.... just go for saphire
How is the 580 still carrying a cryptomining premium? They were released a year and half ago at a price of £219, surely AMD has got on top of supply by now?
Memory cost
@@Jolinator yeah that will be a big factor for sure. There's a hell of a lot of money to be made if you can start up production of memory. Are chips and memory really that different? Couldn't GoFlo switch to producing RAM as no one seems to be using them to make chips at the moment?
Miners are dropping these cards as well as Power Color's Red Devil on eBay. I got a few cards from the testing I just started they (sapphire 570, red devil 580) are doing really well so far.
I have the Pulse and Frankly a Light Clock Boost to 1411 and the cards performance is Identical, a custom fan curve later and I can run it at that speed no issue. I can also get it to 1475 and the noise is the issue not the temps.
I got my nitro to 1500mhz with some heavy overclocking and overvoltage but its not really worth it imo,the card takes any game at high 1080p over 60 fps. Unless its an Nvidia game but they got the drivers coming and that fixes the issue.
Its a better buy than 1060 anyway, TeaM rED
@@almightybogza Interesting, I managed to Undervolt my Pulse by -18mv and still get 1400mhz stable even which for the pulse is still more than the base 1366... So I've Squeezed the best out of both worlds... I figure Sapphire has a stock overvolt of at least 20mv... Pretty sure I am not going to complain when most of the competitive games I play are at or over 100fps at Decent Settings
@@Zacarriss hey, man. Could you please tell me what you think so far about the gpu? I am interested in getting one for myself
@@ragreff5603 It depends firstly, if your monitor is a 1080p you can expect stonking good performance with good settings at or above 60fps, with it or a GTX 1060, either one's great, both are decently capable at 1440p though I do not recommend it at any resolution higher than that...
If you are looking to get an Rx 580 don't expect it to be the greatest card, it's Upper Mid-Range plain and simple, no fuss gaming at 1080p, if you can get the 8gb Model under 200$ go for it, if you can get a 1060 go for it though I will personally suggest the Rx 580 on account of it's more unique features like chill and Wattman if your not into MSI afterburner... This does not mean the 1060 is a bad choice either, I got the 1050 Ti as a Back up card... Pretty good for a Budget... The GTX is a Good Over Clocker.
The Rx 580 is simply Solid All-round out of the Box and while it can't clock much faster than 1500mhz it's got some serious grunt in the Memory Hash Rate...
My next card is probably going to be a Navi as I don't feel like paying the Scalper Fee for the 2060...
Hope that helps though what is your current card and specs... If it's older than 5th Gen AMD or Intel then well... You want to avoid Bottlenecks.
thank u for great review
Thanks.
Hello my gpu speed is on 300mhz fixed in games too sapphire rx 580 nitro+ oc edition please help and reply? Asap help please ? Please help me to resolve the issue!
so is there any diffrence between nitro/pulse 4gb?
Thanks
I think u use the low power bios not the gaming one. there's a difference in clock speed in what bios you're using
Proper Banger card.
Thanks for making this video
By the way! The price of a 580rx nitro plus in my country is $ 281
Buy the 590
Sapphire nitro+ can provide better cooling and can also fit in asrock a320m r4.0 mobo?
One more question. 2 ports for sapphire nitro+ must be plugged in from the power supply, right?
6pin optional for oc. 8pin alone should be fine if running on stock. But it doesn't hurt to connect the 6pin.
Like, found a 580 pulse 8gb for $140.
Just bought a 2 months old one for 80 € .. coming in tonight..

Hi
Good morning 😇
I have the sapphire pulse RX 580 8gb
I love it
but should I trade it for Nitro + ?
The difference is only in cooling, if you setup you rig with decent case fans then you could just undervolt and try a little bit of OC.
No it's actually the same..you don't feel the change
I have 4gb pulse and I have undervolted it by 90mV. It doesn't get loud and have zero issues. Stock fans.
I need some help I bought a sapphire rx 580 but the gpu core clock keep changing Im new in pc gaming so I have no idea why this us happening when I play a game core clock keeps changing and almost never stays at 1366mhz why is this the case is my card damaged? Please help

What settings are you running? I want 1080p 60fps at high-ultra
I got the powercolor red devil😊
Great choice. If I hadn't planned a black and white theme pc, I would have chosen the same model
Hey bro if the led color of sapphire nitro+ is only blue or rgb?if the led color is rgb how can i stay it to blue?(sorry for my bad english)
it is rgb - u can change the colors and themes with sapphire software
i got the nitro rx 580. i didnt know there was a program to change the led color!
I think the trixx programm can do that.
i can have the RX 580 nitro+ 4Gb for 150 euros and nitro+ 8Gb for 220 euros .... great difference ?
8b dobule the 4gb so better and in my country rx580 8gb nitro is 200 euro
In south Korea. Pulse is far cheaper than nitro+
broadband lte How come a lesser card cost more?
@@gametestinglab8861 He said the pulse is cheaper, which makes sense since it's not as good a card.
I brought the RX 580 4GB then I realized after 1 week it was nitro+ version after seeing this video I realized why my gpu was big and there's a pulse version of it
I found a RX 580 pulse 8gb but in the box it says Lite edition, please, someone tell me the differences between this version and the "standard"
I have the same doubt
I am confused please help me i am getting rx 580 sapphire edition for 314$ and rx 580 aorus edition for 281$ which one should i go the sapphire edition has oc and has base clock 1411 mhz and aorus one has 1350-80mhz around so which should i consider , the prices are based on indian currency value,please reply asap!
Also tell about temps of both cards
Both card perform the same. Just go with the cheaper one, Aorus edition in your case.
@@elduderino4660 Cooling for Aorus Sucksssssss
Most definitely the Nitro+. I know it's +30 bucks, but you will thank me later. Sapphire has better and quieter cooling, slightly higher factory clocks (and more pleasing aesthetics as well imo); it's a more solid package overall.
My sapphire r580+nitro fan was not propel at all! Is that ok?
if it isnt gaming then no it doesnt matter. most fans only spin during a game
ok sir
can someone explain what the bios switch does exactly? ty
Switches beetween 2 different bios with different settings. If you need to, look into what a bios is.
I owned pulse version, but the noises is so loud when I'm playing such a demanding games and the temp stay about 60-80c. Is it normal?
Yeah. The Pulse uses the same cooler as Nitro 480 that everybody complained about, to redeem them selfs Sapphire created a new cooler for the 580.
Open your case it will drastically drop the temperature I do the same👍👍
@@nazeerahmad8169 dust
The same goes for 570 4gb pulse vs nitro right?
it should be, but just buy the 8gb, its not that much more expensive and well worth it
How could I tell if my card is nitro+ rx 580 or nitro+ rx 570 based on its looks only?
Production sticker applied to them at the factory denotes the model.
Which among 1. SAPPHIRE PULSE RADEON RX 580 8GB GDDR5, 2. GIGABYTE RADEON RX 580 GAMING 8GD (REV 1.0/1.1) 3. MSI RADEON RX 580 ARMOR 8GB OC DDR5 and 4. SAPPHIRE NITRO+ RADEON RX 580 8GB GDDR5 will be the best for video editing and rendering with after effect and premier pro cc 2019 64-bit version?
Dont go for msi amor the cooling fans suck ass among the other ones it up to preference
Just got the pulse for $110!
Bought a nitro+ for €100 in perfect state best card ever!!!
Ya man I just grabbed one for 100 usd tonight. I'm stoked
unlike the 30 series the upgrade i got from the 255w GTX 670 TO THE FASTER AND CHEAPER TO RUN RX580 NITRO 8GB
also why does the nitro plus have both an 8pin and 6pin...please help.
6pin are optional for more wattage if you plan to oc. If not, just use the 8pin only.
Nitro+ special (blue) is more faster) i will take it)) thanks for video

Is it okay to buy second hand card like this from miner?
They are good cards, but if you are buying it from a miner, it is likely to have been running 100% for a very long time, which would mean the fan has had a lot to do. Depends on how old it is, and if you are getting a good deal and he will cover it for damage when you get it. Pay by paypal is likely your best bet for cover.
KitGuruTech let's say im choosing deals at least was bought last 6 months ago. And still with warranty. Is it still good?
I got a mined card it was out of shape it was undervolted and bios was not original and like 50 different issues never buy a mined card in my opinion
in my country the pulse is $214 and nitro is $252, is it worth the 38 bucks?
tbh just put that 40 buck to either more case fans or a cpu cooler if you dont have those
@@bernardocoelho145 ive already bought a used nitro SE for $180 😅
