I recently bought a new computer and am currently waiting on the vega series of cards to come out before i put in money to buy something really nice. That being said, I sold my old comp so the price on it didn't plummet and I actually lost money. My question is I want to play games while I wait but I'm not sure of which card right now has the most lasting value. I can get the R7 370 4gb for 129 on amazon, but I was also thinking of an aftermarket 480 so it has more selling value when I get rid of it.
What should I do in this situation /g/?
damn son cmon lol

Wait for the 470 if you cant get a 480. I expect to see 8GB 480s drop when the 1060s come out.

Any time estimate on those?

1060 is this month, the 17th i think. Like I said that may drive the 480s price down. The RX470 I'm not sure.

I heard nvidia is really rushing the 1060, any chance of a complete shit show with that card?

Check this video for good 1060 info:

I personally am sticking with AMD because I mostly play Battle Field and BF1 will be DX12

Thanks bud, much appreciated.
>tfw only use 1080p 60Hz
>cheapass, second-hand 970 mini plays everything at 60fps
I got the Sapphire R7 370 4GB. I'm running Debian now so the drivers aren't up to par, but on Windoze The Witcher 3 was playable 1080p at high settings. Pretty decent value. the AIB 480's look really promising now but no way to really tell yet. Wish I went nvidia because of my free software fetish.

install gentoo
Isn't R7 370 twice renamed 78xx something?

If you like free software, go Intel. Their GPUs have complete free and open-source drivers.
