Would the rx 480 be theoretically be able to the Vive/Rift decently?or will it just roll into a corner and shit its self to death? Just looking for financially reasonable upgrade from my 760

Pretty much, yeah. Has over 5 TFLOPS of performance which is about as powerful as a GTX 980.

8GB variant is estimated to only cost $229, get hype.

2 of these babies in crossfire will be fucking GOAT for playing vydia at 4K res.

There's nothing wrong with his statement but of course expecting a basement dweller programming in meme language X isn't surprising.

It meets the minimum criteria for VR gaming, it is not ideal by any means. Just a cheap entry level card for it.
>>
6GB GTX 980 is still like $500+ lmao

>>55242950
It meets the recommended criteria. Minimum for VR is most likely an R7 360. You'd have to play at minimum settings and constantly dip below 60 FPS though.

Anyway it's a beast card according to AMD and looks promising. 2 of these in crossfire will shit on anything from nvidia in terms of value and would probably be overkill for VR gaming.

OP here. Could my old 760 be beneficial to run with the rx480? Or can you not since completely different? Any serious/noticable benefits of crossing graphic cards in general?

I also dont need flagship quality vr, just wanting to low ball/decent vr

Crossfire only works with AMD stuff and SLI only works with Nvidia stuff. There are third party ways to make an AMD and Nvidia card work side by side but performance improvement gains are abysmal due to drivers and whatnot.

>>55242831
No drivers

Motion sickness, obviously you don't know what you're talking about. But some games could be CSGO tier, in which a 7770 gets ~130 fps at 1080p on High, not to meantion all the light phones games

>>55242906
I believe it has either 5.5 or 5.8 TFLOPs, not sure though

I can see this being a problem with Nvidia, SLI is dogshit and even nvidiacucks admit it.

However AMD has done a fantastic job with crossfire on their GPUs. Using 2 at the same time yields in 170-180% performance improvement over a single one with the latest drivers.

>in crossfire will be fucking GOAT
Stop this meme. Crossfire and SLI are fucking horrible. GPUs are designed the way they are specifically to avoid the problems crossfire and SLI introduce.

Moder SLI is still dogshit but crossfire has improved vastly. Stop spreading FUD.

>>55243253
so, if I have both my 960 and rx480 in my computer at the same time, is there a way to only use one at a time.
