>inb4 3.5/4
I mean i bought one but we didn't know that meme joke untill after that. Why did you even buy it, the r9 fury with the latest drivers compares to the 980
>>51268931
Pretty bad.
Return that for a 390.
>>51268971
But muh gamewerks
>>51268971
this is the first time I've seen someone recommend a 390 over a GTX 980

Like what the hell is wrong with you

depends on how much you paid for this and if you want to play games on day1

Sure. Not him, but I suppose he's surprised OP isn't being told to upgrade to a 980.
>>51269080
$280 plus assasin creed syndicate came with
>>51269143
That's the problem, lots of people simply returned their 970s and got a 980, instead of supporting another company and buying the 390 or 290.
Nvidia doesn't care what you think as long as they get your money.
>>51268931
Not bad you did good. 3.5 is a meme and i dont feel it.

I used to get molested by my dad as a kid so now I let jewvidia do it to me

Just an hero OP
>>51268995
390 and 970 are at similar price points. Also if nvidia fucks up, why go on and pay them even more?
>>51268931
You chose the right team, but the fourth string quarterback.
The 3.5 issue isn't really that big of a deal. I can get up to 3.7GB on GTA V (with mods) and still run at 60FPS all the time
>>51275889

4.5 cores
don't fall for the post purchase rationalization-tier AMD shills OP, as long as you didn't pay $330 for it it's a good deal
>>51268931
>Zotac
All shit companies. Zotac, Gainward, Palit
>3.5
Not a problem unless you go above 1080.
>>51268931
Depends, not a lot of games eat more than 3.5gb today, but it's a lot less future ready than other buys.
If your really into streaming, like twitch, Game Stream, Steam in home streaming, or Geforce now, than it's an okay buy.
i got the msi 970 and it has 4gb and for some wierd reason all places even correctly mention the 4gb even though people told me it would show 3,5gb
>>51268931
You did good, family. That's a solid 8.75 out of 10 GPU by my scale!
>>51268978
Gameworks is shit. Only thing that's done it right so far is Witcher 3
>>51268931
Even ignoring the 3.5 thing
>Zotac
>>51268931
You bought it for your wife's son, senpai? baka desu
>3.5 meme
>>51277481
because it has 4GB. It's just that only 3.5gb of this actually works.
>>51276455
I paid 280$ and it came with assasins creed syndicate so I think it was worth
You should have gotten the fallout edition senpaitachi.
>>51277661
>Only thing that's done it right so far is Witcher 3
no.
So that means nothing good has come of GameWorks still.
>>51278119
And your mum came with herpes, but she wasn't worth it.
YOU HAVE MATCHING GIMPS
Aren't AMD cards much better now with the new win 10 drivers?

I got the same deal
I'm very happy with it

Keep throwing your money at Nvidia, after being found over and over doing anti-competitive stunts, blatantly lying about specs, knowingly releasing defective products, bricking cards with drivers or flat out gimping them is like trusting your pedo uncle with your kids just because he promised he won't do it again.
>>51279132
>Nvidia has unfair business ethics!
great job sir. Fighting the good fight.
I have the exact same card, only I bought it last year during a sale after christmas for 260 dollars.
I have the exact same gpu man. Got it like a week ago actually. Tbh its a great gpu, don't let people put it down. Haters gonna hate desu senpai
>>51278633
>he thinks mainstream games will be much more demanding
Naw, not until the next console generation.

Now I am thumb.
>>51279454
Until Nvidia decides you have to upgrade and *poof* there goes your 780 performance with the latest driver update. Buy a 970 goyim, the 3.5GB is a non-issue, we promise!
>>51279857
>implying a single game benchmark is the determining factor
Whatever you say, goy.
depends on how much you paid OP
if you paid like only $100 usd then at least you didn't waste too much money on a gimped card
if you paid what places like jewegg [$300] then you were ripped off.
>>51275867
>team
>being a consumerist faggot
>>51268931
Uh, alright.
So last year, I bought a Zotac 970.
It was fucking awful.
Stuttering out the ass, high temps, and shitty performance.
Get a 390X or get out.
Well it's not EVGA so that's good start
>>51279318
Keep in mind GTA V was designed for the last generation of consoles.
0.5/3.5
JUST
>>51268931
buying from a company that lies to you.
dont be surprised if this becomes a recuring tactic.
the consumer didnt mind after all.
>>51280579
EVGA IS GOAT
You went with Nvidia and didn't get a 980ti so....you're fucked.
Return it and get 390.
>>51281824
>no g-sync
no, thank you.
>>51268931
>THREE POINT FIVE
>>51276455
Let's turn off the Shillworks gimmicks and see how Nvidia fares
>>51282226
I keked
youll be fine anon
>>51268931
Would only buy if the price has been massively reduced.
Pretty bad.
Not only because you'd be happier overall with a 390, but because Zotac is not the best brand to put it mildly.
>>51282226
I feel like adding the 3.5/4 meme to this picture.
But I'm trying to figure out the correct angle...
It needs to highlight how stupid 970 users are.
>>51268931
>>51283789
Tfw I made the right choice with the 970
>>51284484
you obviously made the wrong choice with screen resolution then
is a 960 worth getting? i usually play single player games but nothing really new. i REALLy want to play the witcher 3 and i have a hd 6950 now so its about time to upgrade anyway. will the 960 play tw3 at 60 fps on like med-high settings?
>>51286066
not unless you go lower than FHD. you might get close though.
witcher is a fucking hog.
I think you will have problems with micro stutter in the near future.
Right now Nvidia still optimizes its drivers for the GTX970, which means, they won't allow it to adress the 0.5Gb or so I have read.
If Nvidia doesn't give a shit about this card anymore, the time a game needs more than 3.5GB Ram, you will experience micro stutter.
Dunno if it is an issue already now.
