>>320237693

These are my two previous video cards.
>>320238214
i have a 7950, it's pretty good.
>>320237693
how expensive was your computer ?
Was gonna build a pc but apparantly pic related is close to 3000$(estimate from guy)
Ausfag btw
>>320238214
>A 700 series AMD card
Not. Even. Once.
>>320237693
Damn that was my first build so much memories, although the reason i had to change it is because it burned out it ran Witcher 2/Skyrim and BF 2 like a champ at the time. It was one of the last cards build not meant to be replaced biannually.
>>320238449
>700
>thinking tahiti is bad
you are either straight-on retarded or a nvidiots
>>320238398
The 980 is insanely overpriced here. So is the 970 but you're better off getting it instead. The performance increase isn't worth the cost difference here.
>>320238398
dude let me help you out. that guy is a fucking idiot. btw for the price of the gpu on that list you can get a 980ti and a xonar
>tfw bought the first Titan
>>320238398
Are you going for 4k gaming?
If not then that will be ungodly overkill
>>320238398
u really dont need a 750$ gpu unless u got money to blow. You can easily go down to a $500 gpu unless ur going to buy a sexy 4k monitor to go along with this build. And u are gonna get bottlenecked with that cpu if ur dropping that much money just drop another 50$ for an i7. Also u can get a full modular 1000 W power supply for another 20$. You also should drop at least 100 on a SSD. Who the fuck build this?
>>320237693
8800 GT, which was better.
Then, the 560Ti
>>320237985
3-digit ones are newer ones. They stopped using 4-number ones at 9000-series.
AMD / Ati did the same.
>>320238764
>8800GT, which was better
How?
My GTX 260 did well desu
hijacking this thread to ask a super fucking stupid question propably.
I have these:
http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-1333MHz-PC3-10600-Non-ECC-KVR13N9S8/dp/B008CP5Q7M
And ordered these:
http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-HyperX-FURY-2x4GB-1866MHz/dp/B00J8E90I2
Is there gonna be any major gaming performance increase?
>>320238824
>>320238764
You mean 8800 GTS.
>>320238875
The 280/90 were both good cards. 260? I dunno, man.
>>320238824
Uses less power, was cheaper, yet almost the as strong (some say stronger) than GTX 8800.
The 8800GT was hailed as some miracle card at the time, and it definitely did serve me well. Even today, it is running my friend's makeshift WoW machine.
>>320238909
*just one 4gb cheap kingston ram, the 1333mhz one
>>320238634
>>320238607
I don't know alot a bout pc's but didn't the 970 have way less vram than advertised or some shit I remember a controversy over it.
If you can help suggest parts I'd be grateful.The guy said he'd have to order the parts thats why it be so expensive though I thought he was full of shit.
I was hoping around 2000-2500 range for a modern computer max out stuff like mgsv is that realistic?
It wasn't stronger. The GTX was clocked faster and performed better in benchmarks. You are FACTUALLY wrong.
>>320238924
>you mean 8800GTS
No, I do not. I mean THE 8800GT
GTS was a cheaper, weaker model.
>>320238398
here is a simple mock up
give or take if you want leds or a different mobo
>>320238732
Me pls read filename.
Sorry for being so dull.I generally don't post in pc threads.Since I don't know shit.
>>320238909
Jack shit, you might see an increase of 1-2 FPS if you're lucky, probably not even that. Memory just isn't a bottleneck in gaming unless you have too little of it, in which case you get swapping which absolutely murders your performance
>>320239004
>I don't know alot a bout pc's but didn't the 970 have way less vram than advertised or some shit I remember a controversy over it.
No. And you're a prime example of (AMD's) counter-advertizement at work.
970 has 4GB of VRAM, but the last 0.5GB is partitioned into its own section, which some programs have harder time utilizing as well as the first 3.5GB.
>>320239038
>It was cheaper and it was therefore better
Except it fucking wasn't, retard.
>>320239083
>PC gaming isn't expensive, guys
>>320239169
he said 2000 was his cap. fuck off. you can build a pc with old server hardware for under 5
>>320238909
You should see slight improvement in gaming nothing major like a GPU change or an SSD. but it is noticeable and you will benefit from them with regular PC use
>>320238909
No, there will be no difference at all.
The ONLY real gain from having faster RAM in gaming would be that you're using a system with a mere integrated GPU, which utilizes RAM as its VRAM.
>>320238909
No.
>>320239038
>>320239038
I'm talking about GTS 512. There were two different models. 512 was released after GT and was superior to it in all categories.

>wasting over a hundred on ricer cooling and cheaping out on the mobo entirely
Next time don't get this retarded liquid cooler and get a mobo that won't require you to replac eevery single part in your PC when you upgrade.
>>320238398
>paying ausfag prices for a 980
If you're paying that much you might as well get a TI version of the 980
>paying 250 bucks for a motherboard because it has GAYMING EDITION on it
>no ssd
Sounds like you're taking advice from some bogan dickhead who thinks he knows what's he's talking about. I work in one of the fairly well known computer stores in Australia and I see teenagers and even adults come in and buy overkill shit like 1000 watt power supplies and then try to justify them to me when I say they don't need that much.
>>320239083
overkill Ram, chap ass PSU, wierd ass case and a $50 mobo to run all that. Have fun troubleshooting your PC weekly. Take 60$ off the ram and put it into a better mobo
>>320239154
GJ diminishing what I said to a single bullshit sentence.
The card was cheaper, almost a 100$ so. The card used less power than GTS. Yet, it provided about 90% of the power of GTS.
The 8800GT had a magnificent price:performance ratio.
>>320239326
RAM is literally the temporary memory, to which programs are stored when they're running. You only need to have enough RAM to run the OS and the game simultaneously. 8GB is still safe, and DDR3 is cheaper and more available than the new DDR4, which again has been proven to not affect gaming performance whatsoever.

>>320237939
First card I bought for myself. Gave it to a friend when I upgraded to an 8800gts. The beast was even able to run Crysis on medium/high at decent fps.
>>320239004
I can max out MGS5 and pic related is my specs. It cost me less than 2000 AUD, but I already owned the monitor and Windows 7. Although I did buy a pretty expensive case.

That is literally the same mobo with cool black skin. get another 32 GB of ram instead bro
>>320239823
you don't need a fucking rog mobo. if its cheap and works who cares
the soundcard is optional if he fucking wants it. calm the fuck down.

>>320238909
The only improvement will be in the lifespan of the modules, though it won't actually be noticeable unless you don't upgrade in a decade.
>>320239978
Same here, though I upgraded my entire PC at that point (last one's mobo or PSU blew thanks to summer heat), and got 560ti. The old GPU survived and I gifted it to my uber-poorfag friend.
Pretty sure the usual guys have been running:

You are a fucking retard the mobo is arguably the most important component, who mentioned rog its a fucking meme, stop justifying building a $1600 Pc with a 50 dollar mobo , it's like buying a lambo engine and dropping it into a 1997 civic, it's gonna lead to shorts, big time driver issues and potentially destroying your components. (not even being a dick this is frome experiance with 50$ gigabyte mobos)
>>320239083

make that 6600GT instead of 6800GS and it's real
>>320240156
Yeah, most people stick close enough. They're the best higher end nvidia cards in terms of price/performance.
>>320240183
That's nice.
Outperforms the alternatives though and there's nothing particularly wrong with it.
There's a 4GB R9 390 coming out though, which realistically is much better price/perf than the 970.

>>320237781
People were still using that card at LANs well into the late 00s.
9800Pro and at 6800GT were the big cards back in the day from memory, everyone in college had one of those cards.
>>320240365
Cute. I had to use a Radeon 9250 for the longest time, got a 8600 GT in 2007(?) and holy fuck I could actually go above minimum settings for the first time in years

Better off with a 780 or something around that until pascal drops anyway.
My 580 died about a year ago.
I baked it when I got a 980 and it worked, so I put it in my 2nd computer.
Still runs most games at medium-high or even maxed at 1080p.

>>320240849
No.
>>320240365
How cute.
I started PC gaming on a i386, with 75MB harddrive, no GPU, no speakers, and Windows 95 that it barely managed to run.
My first "real", own PC was P4 2.4ghz + 1GB RAM, and I did game the first year or so without any videocard.

>>320241583
Blowers have worse cooling performance than regular coolers. They're good in really small cases but getting one for a normal-sized case is stupid unless it's cheap and you're going to swap the cooler.

Yeah no. It's best to make your lies a bit less easily defeated by a good search for benchmarks, showing a 680 (and base 780) not running any high end games of this eyars at 1440p at 60 fps.
>But I turn the settings down
Congratulations, buy a console next time.
I'm not terribly knowledgeable on the subject (not as much as others in the thread, anyway), but the 750Ti seems to hold up okay. Though I guess it's considered recent so I have no idea how viable it'll be in the future.
>>320243265
most people don't need to do that but since you are so fucking retarded you don't understand why nvidia charges that much money for their product a little bit of education wouldn't hurt your tiny brain bud. having debt is for retards like you who sit there going "why does everything cost so much money?? waaah i want a 980 for 100 dollars so my mommy can buy it for me these evil rich ppl" and still end up buying it on a credit card

>>320244207
tb.h there is no noticeable difference
t.not the same anon
>>320244107
Yeah I turned the AA off but that screenshots a bit old, TAA sucks ass with the blurriness it adds
>>320244207
I've been trying the higher quality shadows out with shadowboost (http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/1822/?) and it seems to work well
Dynamic settings changing should be the future of games
>>320243165
I'm on 1.11, tried with older and newer drivers, no change.
Is STLM out yet?
Every day you shill it but every day essenthy is still holding back.
Also not sure if it won't be performance rapey now, he said it will be costing some fps this time.
>>320244282
fair enough I didn't see its shitout
>>320244341
didn't you click my shill link??? It dropped yesterday, 1-3 fps difference and an increase in some areas. And the fucing game looks so much better. He put in some real work into swamp lighting makes it feel creepy af. And I have no idea why u get poop fps(cpu bottleneck?)
>>320237856
Still running mine too.
The video memory is going to kill us soon though. Had to downgrade the resolution from 1080P for R6 Siege.

What a piece of shit that game is,

>>320244340
how's the modding on fallout now? i put on 80 mods on it two weeks ago and it was still very mediocre, got any screenshots?
>>320237856
A gainward Phantom 1GB that died 1 month ago;_;
>>320244516
Oh no I haven't, thought its the usual video
I'll get home and check it out
I didn't really like what he did to Skellige and sadly I've cleaned out the swamp already, still I've been waiting for it myself.
Nah its not hardware (4670k at 4.5ghz)
Some software fuckup on my end I recon, I'll reinstall the OS I think, haven't done it in ages.
>>320244613
Haven't really tried out much, it looks like we need the creation kit before anything good will show up
>>320244531
>TAA
>Blurry
Pick one.
>>320244094
I also want to know this, if NVIDIA is indeed gimping AMD performance I'll just buy a 970.
>>320244669
ohh yeah i forgot about OS ur not on windows 10 are u? for some reason my rig can't into w10 i get 35 fps in w3 and had to go back to 8. and skellige looks really good in game considering you can actually see other island on a clear day and when you climb a mountain you can see all the landmarks , villiges and castles
>>320237693
I bought my GTX 460 for like 150 bucks in 2007 to play TF2 and it's run every game at 60 FPS with medium settings until the last year or two.
It's served me well, I'm quite fond of it.
>>320244727
It adds some small blur, you're lucky if you can't notice it
The greatest GPU ever constructed in this quantum reality.
>>320244853
Nah, win 8.1
On his screenshots he went overboard with the green and the light intensity, but I'll check in game - but I'll use it either way, fuck that blue fog in Velen.
>>320244727
Man
>turn off AA
>lose massive performance
Explain this to me first.
>>320244958
nvidia was so based back then.
>buy a 470 , try to overclock it
>fuck up because i was 17 and retarded card smokes for a sec and dies
>RMA to nvidia " I dunno what happened it just stopped working"
>they send me a brand new GTX 480 worth ovrt 500 $ at the time and a sorry note
>>320244094
390 is faster. Especially at 2560x1440.
>>320244107
>it's not like you can see a single pixel jaggies on 1400p display
you need glasses if you can't. Seriously.
>>320244727
>>320244984
It blurs movement, pixel jittering to be precize.
>>320244958
>GTX 460

>>320245163
Unless you unlocked the voltage they were just literally trying to silence you.
Holy SHIT v, stop spreading misinformation
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS for most games need:
980
i7
Stop compromising on this
>>320245141
there is no explanation turn godrays to ultra 48fps, turn it down to low 44 fps, turn it off 60fps game looks nice and clear no bright shit covering the screen. AA on 60 fps, AA off 53fps. Shadows absolutely wreck fps on more than medium with no visible changes. This game is all kinds of fucked up mane
>>320245390
If you're some idiot trying to achieve 4k in modern games, yeah.
>>320245256
please don't bully me i have alzheimers
>>320245390
You mean 980Ti, any less and you may as well buy an Xbone
>>320245268
look how mad I am nvidia played me by giving me a card worth 200 more than i payed.
>you are actually right that series of cards was known for breaking down, not that i didn't help it by force overclocking it.
>>320245390
provide me 3 examples with those minimum requirements - actual links please not you shitting all over your keyboard out of your anus
>>320245421
Yeah, thank god its a shit game running terribly, much better than if it was a good game running like shit.
I tried to go at it like 3 times but each time I'm just put off by every character interaction.
>>320245163
>Buy 480
>Gets killed by shitty Nvidia driver
>Lost the receipt (my fault) so I buy another Nvidia card
>new card gets killed by another fucking card killing driver and they tell me to send it to hong kong for 8 weeks for repair instead of just offering me a replacement.
>Report to consumer watchdog and force a refund and buy a Radeon card that still powers my computer to this day 4 years later.
Man you're lucky, my experience with Nvidia is they are complete and utter cunts, though that being said I would likely be dealing with a different branch (Oceania/Asia) than you.
I refuse to give Nvidia a cent ever again.
>>320245565
Not saying you didn't get lucky, but theres always a reason when they overcompensate, and with the 4xx series its pretty obvious.
And unless you unlocked the voltage you shouldn't even be able to make it catch fire.
>>320245578
talking about non-visual problems in fallout is a topic for a PhD research paper
Hd 7970
>live in Australia
>980ti costs $1100
At least the ATI 300 series is reasonably priced
Wasn't there a special quad Voodoo 5 gpu that was given out to employees after they went bust? How would that one hold up today?

Radeon 7870/R9 270x
Had mines since 2012 and still going strong
>>320237693
I think I had an 8500 that powered through Witcher 2 when it came out, medium to high settings iirc.
Damn thing was a trooper, I still have it in its box after I retired it.
>>320239038
The G92 core 8800GTS was a beast, The G80 was shitty.
What's a good <$200 GPU for playing at 1080p without AA?
>>320248687
Maybe at 720p
>>320248798
>1080p without AA
but why though. The 280x are on sale.
380x for 1440p?
>>320237693
mm maybe the 560 ti. But no. This card was crazy and way ahead of its time. I still had one until a few months ago. That motherfucker run everything for 7 years until it broke.
>>320239817
Pretty good, i would switch the 980 for 6gb 980. What with the temps. somethings wrong.

Radeon 9700 PRO. Got it in January 2003, lasted until August last year.
I hooked it up to my living room computer after I first upgraded the GPU on my main PC around 2007. (Radeon HD 5770, another trooper, currently in my guest room PC)

>>320242612
I have a 7950 and I'm still playing almost everything at high 60 FPS. I might need to adjust shadows or AA but other than that I get great performance unless it's just retarded like Watch Dogs was.
>>320251117
That is because it was the last line of great AGP cards. The 9700 pro and 9800 were fucking beastly.
>>320237693
Used it from 2008 til literally this year. What a fucking champ. Finally shit the bed though, poor guy. RIP In Pixels ;_;
>>320251275
mine was:
something I can't remember
something I can't remember with 2MB of ram
something I can't remember with 4MB of ram (SiS?)
A few more somethings I can't recall, though I DO recall being able to finally play Unreal Tournament, might've been a Savage3D card...
Riva TNT2 (32MB, AGP 4x support)
Geforce Ti 4200 (64MB)
Radeon 9700 PRO
Radeon HD 5770 (1GB)
Radeon R9 285 (Current)
I think I've made some smart jumps over the years.
>>320251625
You know what was funny? The Riva TNT2 died in 2005, the Ti 4200 died in 2004.
>>320237693
Radeon HD 7970. Don't even know if it's STILL being produced in the 300 series or not. Might be.
>>320238659
Not the worst investment considering it's like a budget quadro unlike future titans

Gt6630I do not understand the point of pretty graphix
>>320252516
it's not but still competes in perfomance with their full tonga 380x.
What's interesting is that on launch I was dissapointed with the hd 7970, it didn't really beat the 680 and had issues with bsods but they sorted out the issues with drivers and when compared to the 680 now the difference is insane. Amd cards get better with time while nvidia drops support after 1 gen
>>320237693
here she is. just replaced the whole set up but that card kept me going till a couple of months ago
do build hipsters exist? like people who will build PCs out of outdated components and run older OS
