Will an NVIDIA GTX 760 work with an AMD FX 8350?

It will work just fine!

 

That being said, just so you know, the Radeon R9 280 will beat the GTX 760 in terms of raw performance...

The question may sound, idiotic, perhaps, but bear with me.

 

My logic concludes that my AMD CPU, an FX 8350, will work flawlessly with an AMD GPU, for example, an AMD R9 280.

 

But then, what if I swapped it with an: EVGA - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Superclocked Graphics Card?

 

AMD CPU+NVIDIA GPU... doesn't sound logical. From my experience with sharing products from nemesis companies ( Xbox 360 and Ipod - I know, consoles. Ugh. ), something tells me that AMD would have it that Nvidia GPU's would work less effectively on their CPU, or likewise.

 

Then, is it technically true?

 

AMD FX 8350 + AMD R9 280 = Success!

AMD FX 8350 + NVIDIA GTX 760 = Scrap?

 

Help!

It will work fine. AMD, Intel, Nvidia are all cross compatible

The graphics card is controlled by drivers.

Drivers are installed on the operating system and are affected in no way that I know of by the CPU.

I can't imagine how you could possibly have any problems with the 760

Yeah it's all fine if it wasn't Nvidia's consumer market wouldn't exist... cause they don't have there own CPUs (for consumers)...

Your good man, go for it.

This is my opinion, it doesn't mean I'm right and is liable to change at any time. I may offend of which I apologize in advance.
