Thoughts on a MSI RX 570 Armor 8GB OC GPU?

[Mogamad]

Been looking for a suitable GPU for the past two days. HAd a brand new 750ti and killed it in probably 8 months, bought a 760 on carb few months ago and it died the weekend. I then realised I need a card that comes with a warranty probably and something with more Vram than 2g. I'm looking at this MSI RX 570 Armor MK2 8GB OC - Free Shipping - South Africa . I don't game much at all, but I'm a pro video editor. I render projects that are around 2 - 3 hours mostly and those projects have intense colour grading and effects etc (Probably why the previous cards died tbh - but who knows). Never used AMD GPUs before so not sure how they are optimized for Adobe CC but based on the research, it seems Nvidia cards perform better. But my thinking is that the 8 gig VRAM should help and the optimization couldnt be THAT bad? I'm open to other suggestions/offers on cards but bare in mind warranty is a must at this point. I wish i had a better budget but lots of things went wrong this month and the bank account is getting it rough. Any help welcomed. Need to buy a card ASAP so I can get back to work.

I like AMD and it is always worth a try. Maybe try from @PsychoticKing he has RX580's 8GB for R2000, and he assists with the warranty and replacement if needed.
Very trustworthy from what I know.
