Please provide proof or a credible reference that would back up your claims instead of speculation. Many would rather see relevant data that backs your response instead of noisy chatter.

A 7870 is a good card equivalent to a 580 you can get them on sale for around 200$ after MIR.
Or get a 7950 if you have the extra money.
