fuck 60Hz, 144Hz is a much more noticeable improvement compared to 4k or even 1080p. Id choose 720p@120Hz over 1080p@60fps any day.

Good thing we need not make the choice.

Hey OP, let me borrow your thread for a second?

I've got a 750 Ti. One of the dual fan versions that's a little beefier than normal, but it's not keeping up anymore.

What should I replace it with? I've heard people say a 1070 is overkill for 1080p@60fps.

1070 performs a decent amount better than 980 Ti, though, and based on the leaks, RX 480 performs somewhat worse than 980. You should stop rounding numbers conveniently.

Not worth it, OP. I've taken the cheap option some time ago and bought an R9 290X instead of a GTX 970. The driver software is so bad you'll mistake it for a virus. A majority of games work better on Nvidia cards and AMDs alternative for ShadowPlay only works 50% of the time for me.

The RX 480 has the same speed as a 3 year old midrange card like the R9 290X.
If you want performance then you have to go with Nvidia.
>>
>>342334928
That level of performance is not good enough going forward - within a year you'll be basically stuck at console equivalent settings.
My OC'd 970 is maybe ~10% slower than a reference 980 and there are already many games where I have to drop settings.
And as games get more demanding all the time it just isn't worth it.

In a carefully cherrypicked AoTs AMD promo benchmark. Truly an independent, trustworthy source.
>and nvidia STILL doesn't have proper async compute
NVidia still doesn't have the same architecture as AMD, so it doesn't run as well in this one title that's super optimized to run on AMD hardware. Truly an essential feature.
Even it AoTS in brings in barely ~10% performance.

>AMD is now setting the standards - GCN, vulkan/mantle/dx12
GCN is not standard, that's just their arch.
Mantle scam is dead as it was destined, but the meme that DX12 is Matle 2.0 somehow still persists in AMDfriends simple minds.

i've never had a crossfire setup, but i've always thought it was like the "holy grail" of gaming rigs, something that you 100% want if you have the extra money to splurge on it. after reading about it for a while, it looks like it's more of a gimmick than VR, and it doesn't actually do anything worthwhile except on benchmarks

i was going to get 2 480 8GB cards and crossfire them to be "wowed" by the performance, but now after knowing it's worthless in games that are built on stuff like OpenGL, i'll just buy a single one and pocket the extra $250

beauty of CF is that games don't have to support it.
Downfall of CF is that it's shit.
>>
>>342340073
>>342340140

what happens to the second card when you're running a game that doesn't support it? does it just idle and do nothing the entire time?

did you get a lot of graphics faults/errors while playing, too? some stuff said that games built on DX12 will help a lot with the compatibility
>>

>have wife
>have children

There's your mistake.
>>
>>342339839
If you had a real job and didn't live with your parents you would know the value of money and that spending $600 on a GPU is bullshit when a $200 GPU will play any game on the market on high or ultra settings.
Not to mention that $600 will be made obsolete by 1080ti and 490x in a couple of months
>>
>>342340169
In some games 2nd card is just inactive, in others it's active and gives you nice boost but system is unstable.
>>
>>342340125
Why would I waste $600 to play videogames?
>>
>>342340197
But anon, I have a real job.
Spending 600$ every two years (actually less - substract the resale value of the old card and VAT in my case) is no big deal.
>>
>>342339476
I can play 1440p on a 780 non-ti, which is 3,6 megapixel with only 3GB of VRAM, resolution isn't as much of a VRAM issue, normal map/texture resolution and especially fucking post-processing shit is, which should be disabled for VR anyway if you don't want input lag.
>>
>>342340169
>some stuff said that games built on DX12
You see, here is the problems with that. DX12 can offer better options for dual gpus. But it's up to the actual devs if they want to do it or not. Right now, there is nothing stopping devs from focusing on making their games optimized for dual gpus setups but they just don't care. You buy into SLI/XF so you can get top high scores in 3D mark and then brag about it on 4chan.
>>
>>342340197
>in a couple of months

Two years more likely.

>know the value of money

I do know the value of money, I have just gotten to the point where spending more money on a graphics card just isn't such a big deal to me. I'm sorry if my above minimum wage life offends you, buddy.
>>
>>342340272
There's much better things to spend $600 on, not in videogames.
>>

You're asking this on /v/. The fact that you're already here means that gaming means substantially more to you than it does to the average normie. If money is that much of a concern to you then go with the AMD card, senpai.

>>342335141
Freesync is the reason I don't have to upgrade my 290X in the next two years. Same for gsync and Nvidia cards which don't get cucked by VRAM issues.

Everything above 40fps feels smooth with gsync/freesync and as long as my 290X 8GB can push these fps at 1440p I'm fine
>>
>>342341974
It keeps on going as long as there are people expressing interest in buying a graphics card. That brings out all the fanboys from hiding.

there isn't a single western country with divorce rates less than 50% and out of those more than 80% are no-fault divorces by women that are favored by the courts because they make tax money and the male is raped out of his money while also shackled to subsequent payments

>>342334928
I estimate that the RX 480 will be somewhere inbetween 35-40% the performance of a GTX 1080. That number may go up or down in VR mode and/or high resolutions. AMD has a history of pricing their top of the line cards relative to the average performance of their Nvidia counterparts.

>sheesh is this performance real?
It's the performance in something like 16 games averaged, so yes.

>I just bought a 980ti nearly a year ago is it worth upgrading to the 1080?
~37% higher performance for +$600. Somewhat less than that if you OC, because 1080 is a worse overclocker than 980 Ti.
>>
>>342344385
You won't see much gain going from the 980ti to the 1080. The 980ti overclocks much better and gets pretty close to stock 1080 performance if overclocked

Stupid question. Depends on way too many factors (what games you play, what settings you want to play them at, what kind of performance you're satisfied with, etc) to answer with any sort of accuracy.

>Also is the i5 3570 still good?
Yes.

Ill improve the question a bit, Medium graphics is the lowest ill go and I have no plans going beyond 1080P for a long time.

I play everything really. 50-60 fps is fine under that is doable but not prefered

Could very well last for half a decade.


Really though it's not about your settings but how shitty will ports get, especially in two years once PS4.5 and Xbone 2.0 are released and start getting games.

3-4 years.
