The RX 480 is a $250 GPU, not $200. For the price of an RX 480, the GTX 1060 6GB would be better anyway. For $200, your best bet is a 3GB GTX 1060. Zotac and EVGA have 3GB GTX 1060s for $200 on SuperBiiz and Newegg. Depends on your case and PSU though, they're most likely compatible but you may want/need to upgrade those first.

Dont know the exact name of the case I have, its a pretty large case though. Also 850 w psu, I think ill just muster up 50-60 more bucks and get a 6gb 1060!

Thanks man.

Well, no idea what make/model your case or PSU are, so don't know what's compatible. GTX 1060 should be fine though. You can get a 3GB GTX 1060 for $200, or a 6GB GTX 1060 for like $240/$250. Gigabyte have a GTX 1060 for sale at $255, and it has a nice backplate.
