Suh /g/, looking for a logical GPU upgrade for my rig, currently rocking an EVGA GTX 750Ti, want to keep it $200 or under if possible, with a little bit of leeway.
>>55004929
The new rx 480 is suposed to be around 200.
Its coming out later this month supposedly.
>>55004929
I would wait untill June 29th and we can confirm benchmarks of the rx 480.
>>55004929
Rx480 100%
>>55004969
Looks promising, although I do like my Nvidia cards. Think it'll be good enough to jump ship?
>>55004929
GTX480
>>55005000
Yes.
>>55005000
Dude brand loyalty is fucking stupid.
Even if you were to be brand loyald, fucking nvidia is not the one to be it to. They are kikes man.
But thats beside my point.
Yes, jump ships, a deal is a deal you dingus.
>>55005000
Well at $200 your best Nvidia option is gtx 960 or gtx 970/780 used. The rx480 will kick the shit out of the 960, will probably beat the 970 as well.

While I agree brand loyalty is retarded, going with something you know is much safer and easier.
>>55005046
If you like nvidia then you don't know shit about nvidia or GPUs.
>>55005059
Exactly.
Nvidia is a company, not a family.
Trust reviews, not brands.
>>55005046
>implying it makes any fucking difference
>>55005000
If you cannot wait to see what Nvidia releases for your price point you might as well get a 480.
>>55005059
>If you like nvidia then you don't know shit about nvidia or GPUs.
You only need to know that AMD has no drivers.
that's a small card
>>55005126
lol
who is this faggot?
>>55004929
>Need a GPU around $200
>Considering old and deprecated 750Ti instead of 480
Brand loyalty or not, but this is beyond retarded.
>>55005250
he's saying that he currently has a 750ti you fucktard, learn to read
>>55005126
aaaand thread going to shit in 3, 2, 1
>>55004929
Under $200 you could get an r9 280x
>>55005126

shit-tier waifu confirmed
>>55005000
those digits proof you shall stay with nvidia
>>55005000
If you're sticking with Nvidia why did you even bother to ask? Just get an Nvidia for $200
>>55007906
this, why even ask if you refuse to get anything different
>>55005000
Brand loyalty is idiotic either way but just wait for reviews to get out and make up your mind. This might be one of the rare situations where waiting for something might be a good idea.
>>55005000
For $200 you can either get a gimped, last-gen Nvidia card or a blazing fast, up to date AMD card with all the latest technologies.
>>55004929
RX 480 later this month
>>55005957
the 480 is coming out in a few weeks and will be much better than a 280x
FYI the GTX 950 is like 120-140
How long after a new GPU releases do places like newegg (I know it sucks) start selling prebuilt PCs with the newly released GPUs?
Not going to buy one, but curious, gathering some info from different sites and have never really noticed how long it takes them to start selling PCs with new tech.
Would a rx 480 be able to game at 1440P reliably?
>>55008123
best buy already has some prebuilts with 1070's on their site, so pretty much on release day I guess
>>55008147
if it is as powerful as a fury or 390x then yes
>>55008173
>best buy selling prebuilt new tech before newegg and memeware
Literally what has happened.
The (AMD) 480 is going to be the most powerful $200 card when it comes out. (Later this month).
Worth waiting for.
>>55008098
Except it won't. Try a few months.
Wait for GTX 1060/GTX 1050

>>55010052
quality mate, after all that post was related to nvidia. good luck finding a (possible) new price to performance killer gpu available in the first month... or two when the board partner versions come out. now remove yourself from /g/.
>>55010122
Unlike Nvidia, AMD actually planned ahead and built up a decent stock of their new cards before release.
>>55010122
>nvidia shill telling others to leave /g/
wew lad
>>55010227
let's see it
>>55010239
yup a shill, that's me
>>55010251
>let's see it
We will.
>>55009633
>>55010052
You two are going to keep me entertained for weeks when it doesn't come out by the end of the month.
>Suh
Hey /g/
I've been thinking upgrading from my 295x2 to a Rx 480 crossfire setup when benchmarks are confirmed
Pros
>way less power consumption
>way less heat
>looks to be a bit of an upgrade from 290x crossfire performance to a little below fury crossfire
>8gb instead of 4gb
Cons
>4 slots instead of 2, 1 with watercooling
>295x2 is king of price to performance for now, killer card and basically a bad mother fucker
>would have to deal with selling all my shit
Honestly I'm thinking I'll switch. There's enough room in my case and all I just like having the single card look more I guess. Any reasons not to switch to this Jesus card of price/performance?
