The Asus Radeon RX 580 Dual OC is a powerful, quiet graphics card

Glad to see ASUS ditched their fan design in their previous DUAL cards, those where loud.

Wouldn't testing such a card with a game like Dota 2 be pretty much useless? Maybe on an RX 550 or 560, but this card needs a bigger challenge.

But this is undoubtedly a good card, managing to overtake the 1060 on a large number of titles and even proving to be a competent choice for 1440p. The RX 570 isn't that bad either, it's more than enough for 1080p gaming.

Agreed, Dota 2 is a walkover for this GPU. I gave it a try in a number of games and shared my impressions of it in more demanding titles.

I really liked cranking the graphics settings in The Witcher 3 and having a stable 60fps in the Dark Souls 3, my current card still has a few frame drops every now and then.
 
This has given me a thougt, I'm thinking MyGaming should consider reviewing hardware on a regular basis. I mean, it's a lot of work deciding what version of what component one should get, particularly if you're looking for value and are looking in the midrange where there's often a lot of competition. Then some of that hardware can be given away to those of us with crappy hardware :D"whistling:
