So, my aging HD7950 kicked the bucket last night; I'm currently running on an HD6850.
I placed an order for an 8GB RX 580 today, but when I got home, I see the news that AMD is rumored to be releasing a 12nm Polaris refresh next month.
Granted it will be annoying to use the 6850 in the meantime, but an extra 10-15% above the RX 580 would be nice if I can get one for the same price.
So, what's your opinion? Stick with the 580 or cancel the order (it hasn't shipped yet) and wait for more news?
