I've been wanting to know, what quality does /g/ prefer when buying a graphics card?
Vote in the poll:

I was expecting a more detailed poll. I look for proper video ports first, then case fit, then performance. After I find some cards that meet my specs THEN I get the best price-for-performance out of them.

Proper video ports and performance fall under "high quality".

What kind of shitty poll is this? Who but a total retard is going to say they prefer low quality garbage?
>>
>>53727314
it's still super vague though. The majority of people are going to pick "both". Try thinking of some different parameters like price ranges or graphics levels

Where's the "buy whatever is the strongest card on the market" option?

performance and heat output, i don't like having to run AC 24/7 like i had to last time i had an AMD GPU.

Low quality isn't garbage. Games that obscure everything with overblown graphically complex bullshit and throw away any semblance of gameplay just to show people beautiful graphics because modern games is more about storytelling like they think they're fucking barely interactive movies than actual gaming.

If you pay over $100 for a video card, you're a moron.

I was about to give you a serious answer until I saw the poll.

Just kidding, who doesn't go with "high quality"?

:^)

Basically the 100-300 Bucks range where price/performance doesn't fade into obscurity. This is also what I'd generally recommend, unless money isn't really an issue for you.

Actually, that'd be the 980ti.
