So, yesterday I finally bit the bullet and bought a Sapphire RX 580 8GB Nitro+. I was about $100 more than the 3GB 1060 and $20 less than the 6GB 1060, and there's no way I was going to pay more for a 1060, even at 6GB (still less than the RX580), although I did consider the 3GB version of 1060 because of the cheaper price, but I wanted some future proof for when I upgrade to a 4K monitor. I did find a 1070 for about $150 more and even a 1080 for $250 more, but that was way beyond my budget, so here we are. The card does look really cool tho, I gotta give Sapphire props for that!

Besides that I also got a 500GB Samsung Evo SSD, otherwise the system is the same as in my sig (I certainly hope my PSU has the right connectors, I know it has plenty of juice tho).

I just wanted to know if there's any suggestions you guys have about drivers or anything else I may need. Should I just get the newest drivers or is there some very stable driver out there? I'm installing Win 10 64bit so that's another change from below Win 7 rig, otherwise same.
