gollark: What card did you said you already had though? An R9 390? I don't think the 580 would actually be much better than it.
gollark: Different cooling and slightly different factoy speeds. Also different amounts of video RAM though I think all 580s are 8GB.
gollark: Is that a different picture?
gollark: I don't know, it does look... about the same as usual...
gollark: It's quite cool, it guarantees memory safety via the type system.
