Which one is the best to run ultra settings and games for a bargain?
>>
>>51407670
>Ultra settings
>Bargain
That's not how technology works anon.
You want eyecandy, get the card that have better/desired results (like, 60fps on X game).
>>
>>51407670
Amd is cheaper most of the time
>>
>>51407670
the best one you can get for the lowest price.

I'd check craigs list for 980's at 390 prices

>>51407754
have fun paying full price for shit because you don't know how to run a suite of tests to check before you buy. Hell even the threat of "hey anon, saw your 980 for sale and im wondering if it would be cool if i brought over my rig to test it" is enough to weed out clapped out cards. I f the seller doesn't agree or doesn't respond, then look else where. it's not that hard.

THESE PRICES ARE NUTS

Best GPU for the money is the Radeon R9 390, argue all you want, it has 8GB of VRAM which rapes at 4K with maxed out textures and whatnot, better FLOPS than its Nvidia competitors and unlike Nvidia's meme 3.5GB and 128Bit trashy memory bandwith specs it actually is built for the future. If you want high res , if you want flat out better computing performance go AMD , if you want to be a 5 year old memeposter on reddit and play games with GameWorks(TM) and some other stupid superhero AAA MLG title then get an GTX 980ti with your mom's credit card. By the way Valve games work better on AMD cards especially since Vulkan and Source 2 is on the way.

amazon is gonna have a cyber monday week starting on the 23th

>>51408069
sure, i was about to get a 390 when i saw how terrible it runs on Fallout 4
>>
>>51408069

>>51408069
Also buying the R9 390 means that your computer can pull double duty and function as the heater for your room in the winter.

where is this from?

lol
>>
>>51408330
Fuck off back to reddit please.

The only AMD card that had temperature problems was the reference r9 290x
>>
>>51408272
my r9 390 8gb runs fo4 at 2560*1080 @ 75fps
the problem isn't the cards, its some of the .ini settings need to be manually changed
for example the one that dictates fo4 needs to be the topmost window at all times- that setting, in my case, refused to let the game run at ANY SETTING over 39 fps,
most cards can handle fo4, even midrange cards, you just have to fix bethesda's terrible factory .ini settings -- i hope there is a patch soon otherwise people will continue believing that no card is capable enough for fo4.

the game isn't all that pretty, even on ultra

it's fun as fuck though

Did you torrent or buy it?

>Stuck with €350 970
Consider yourself lucky Germany. Belgium has them for €430. Buying a gaymen laptop with an ips screen is actually not too much pricier than building a desktop and buying peripherals here. Long-live taxes, yay!

EVGA.com Bstock it looks like family. Anyone have any experience with these?
>>
>>51407939
they have it on this EU evga site:

http://eu.evga.com/Products/ProductList.aspx?type=8

but for 289 Eur, fucking joke

and on policy page

http://eu.evga.com/storeterms.asp

EVGA is not responsible for any taxes, duties or fees for receiving a product outside of the EU.

so if they ship it outside of EU, + another 20%

so thats: 346.8 Jewuros = fucking outrage

>>51408988

>>
>>51409003
fuck off
they dont have a 390 b-stock
and its 350€ on amazon just like a 970
>>
>>51409004
>r9 390 8gb
just go Sapphire Nitro r9 390 8gb

>>51409030
wait, save extra 50 jewuros

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15wOp7_dD8E

the r9 390 has some issues, why? idk it just does, probably a driver issue

i just play on 1080p so everything above is not relevant for me
>>
>>51407670

750 Ti = $119
>>
>>51408970
Naah, it's safer to live here, just a hella lot more expensive. 40% of our pay get's taken away for social idk whatever (which makes healthcare, education, and other stuff like that so cheap). Here, if you're broke as fuck but can't find a job the gov helps you out and stuff.
>>
>>51409336
>it's safer to live here

Yeah with all the terrorists and shit, it's pretty chill.
>>
>>51410889
Dude I don't live in a really big city. I think I'm pretty safe.
>>
>>51407670
For either of them their top of the line card will run everything at max. AMD is usually cheaper. My Radeon HD7970s still run everything at max no problem.
>>
>>51409336
>if you're broke as fuck but can't find a job the gov helps you out and stuff.
Same in America.

Why would you get 980's? Nvidia trashes any non current card, they're equal to 390x at this point
