>Are you planning on buying a GPU within the next two years?
Maybe. Probably. Don't knwo yet.
>What Brand/Model?
Again, dunno. If I do it within the next year or so, it'll probably be a 1070. That really heavily depends on what games do in the next year or so and whether or not my card decides to kill itself, which isn't a huge possibility but it's happened to me before, so shrug.

1080p.

Question, why is EVGA a top contender?

It's hard to say what I'll be buying 2 years from now as far as GPU's go
>>338355852
ASUS makes decent products but their customer service is absolute shit.
I frequently have MIR's rejected by them.
I'm looking to move away from them, though I've heard msi's customer service is just as poor.
I hear people say EVGA has good customer support, but their cards don't usually get the best frame rates.
>>338350808
Most likely and the plan is some variation of the 1070
>>338356608
well thankfully i bought the card via amazon UK, they immeadiately refunded me the full price
incredibly annoying that i got a faulty card though
>yes
>Don't know, waiting for both AMD and Nvidia to have their cards out

I'm pretty much going to wait for the best bang/buck combo, either from AMD or Nvidia, though i would like to go a little higher end than what i do currently have. Maybe high as the 1070.
When will the 1080Ti come out?
I think the age of 10-12GB VRAM is upon us and 8GB is just a meme holder

I build my computer in 2014. I won't be buying another GPU until 2020. The only new game that made me drop to 30fps on medium is D44M.
My question is by the time I upgrade to the latest GPU that'll come out in 5 or more years, will my i5 4690 bottleneck it?
>>338350808
No. Right now I'm in money saving mode.
Well right now I have a cheap 1440 monitor.
960, and it depends on the game. Not all games can be upgraded to emulate at 1440. I think I actually run Mario Kart Double Dash at 1080, because with all the other settings, if I go for 1440 then I start dipping below 60 fps. For some reason if that game dips to even 52 fps, it feels like its dipping to 10 fps. It actually affects the game worse than any fps Bloodborne has gotten me on the PS4.
If anyone can explain that one to me, let me know.
>>338357957

1070 or 1050? What ever is best value
1080p Can't afford new screens

>>338359319
We are reaching too many new hardware changes, so my guess is yes.
DDR4 RAM, PCI-E SSDs, so on and so forth. 2020 would probably be a good time to completely rebuild your computer. Can probably end up doing a huge upgrade for a cheap price at that point in time.
Also, lazy developers will force you to upgrade all that shit if you want to play their games.
>>338359805
Welp so much for that "you just need to spend a couple hundred upgrading to keep up with each generation" meme. That sounds like I have to rebuy ram, cpu, mobo, and gpu in 2020, leaving only my SSD to be reused.

>Are you planning on buying a GPU within the next two years?
Yeah. Interested in the 1070 and the 1080, but want to get a look at the new AMD architecture before making a purchase.
>What resolution will you be playing in?
1920x1080 / 2560x1440
The Radeon 5800 in my chassi is only there because the vendor agreed to buy back my 970, which had some minor issues. Can't wait to upgrade.
>>338350808
I'm looking at getting the 1070 when it comes out
>>338359805
>lazy developers
This is my biggest gripe about pc gaming, I know my 660ti is old, but a good optimized game will run on my pc smoothly.
Most developers don't even bother optimizing their games.

>>338359973
Looking at RAM alone, DDR2 was introduced in 2003, DDR3 in 2007, and now DDR4 in 2014. While upgrading everything isn't necessary right away, a couple hundred every generation is definitely off. Looking at Sony, a new generation means around every 6 years. I would say the advances for PCs within a 6 year period is a really good reason to require a practically full upgrade.
I think 1440p 144hz sounds way better than 4k 60hz
what's the point of spending all that money if you can't even max the graphics over 60fps? benchmarks I saw were more like 30fps

Question
I have a 660Ti, and I'm either upgrading this year or in 2017
So far it looks like nvidia mostly lied (shock horror i know) with how much better the gtx 1080 is compared to the 980Ti
I'd only be gaming at 1080p, but i do enjoy 144fps on my 144hz monitor so i like more than 60fps in games if possible
consdiering im just gaming at 1080p is the gtx 1080 gonna be a good choice for the latest AAA titles on ultra, or is the 980Ti the better option?

1440p when i upgrade
OCd 770 1080p
when do i need to replace my i5 3570k 4.4 ghz?
So how does refresh rate works with LCDs? It's the frequency of backlight, right? So I assume 120Hz or 144Hz should be easier on the eyes than 60Hz like it was with CRTs? Or does it depend on technology/manufacturer?
I mean I could google, but might as well try for tl;dr here
>>338364369
When you start bottlenecking or in like 3 years or so.
>>338364369
Never, OCd it up to 5 if you think you need it, but you can still hold, there are people here with 3.xx, so think again.
>>338364369

>Are you planning on buying a GPU within the next two years?
Probably not. Maybe towards the tail end of 2017/early 2018 depending on how things go, but we'll see.
>What Brand/Model?
I'll probably hold off and get the 1170 or 1270, or whatever they call those generations.
>What resolution will you be playing in?
1080p. If I get a new monitor I will probably prioritize a higher refresh rate over a higher resolution.
>What is your current GPU and current resolution?
970 meme card at 1080p. Going strong running things at max/near max and 60FPS at this resolution, so I'm not going to upgrade for a bit.

No.
None.

The only thing AMD said about Polarises is that one will be notebook and other mainstream. Literally no one knows what they mean by "mainstream". We only know that GPU can deliver a constant 60+ FPS on 2560×1440 resolution without any hiccups in Hitman.
>i plan to buy GTX 1080
Good goym.
>>338350808
Not likely
AMD would have to make polaris a much more significant release. Pascal is garbage based on the test units we got(they're high binned and overclocked straight from nvidia to reviewers)
1080p-4k depending on what screen I'm using
980ti 1080p-4k depending on what screen I'm using.
>Yes, probably within the year.
>EVGA or MSI, undecided otherwise
>1080p

Maybe
Don't know, whatever's pretty good at that time.

Will buy a new one this summer/autumn.
No idea about brand or model. Waiting for Computex so ATI will bring their new shit out.
1080p with texture upscaling most likely.
Current gpu is like 5 years old. I'm not even going to indulge you with details.
>>338367381
Yes, it most definitely is the new king. It's plain silly to compare oced to non-oced. Please, put oced 1080 there and let's see the results.
R9 390
Digital Alliance
1440p at med to high or 2160p at low
GT 740 900p-720p (med to low)

Its not possible right now because founders edition card hits temperature limit even with its BOOST 3.0 technology. Then it throttles.
>>338367381
You sure showed them.
Comparing a 314mm2 gpu to several ~600mm2 gpu's sure is convincing anon.
I guess. I only wish I kned if I needed to upgrade my psu or motherboard too.
Prolly nvidia.

>Are you planning on buying a GPU within the next two years?
Yes
>What Brand/Model?
GTX 1080 ti, probably MSI
>What resolution will you be playing in?
1440p and VR
>What is your current GPU and current resolution?
1440p with a 980 ti from MSI
>>338350808
>Are you planning on buying a GPU within the next two years?
Yes
>What Brand/Model?
Doesn't matter, I will buy whatever is the best performance for my budget for my needs
>What resolution will you be playing in?
1920x1080 16:9. I'm too used to it and also don't have the space for anything larger.
>What is your current GPU and current resolution?
Current GPU is a 2GB GTX 770 EVGA. Current resolution is 1820x1080 16:9.
I am waiting until HBM memory chips, so possibly another year or so. My 770 still 60 fps any game on high at the moment for me. I feel the 1070-1080 and Pascal won't be worth the upgrade.
>>338350808
probably Polaris flagship Sapphire
