AMD with Radeon GPUs vs AMD with Nvidia GPUs

[Rynell]

Hey guys! I was curious for some clarification, do Radeon GPUs work better with AMD chipsets? Or is performance relatively the same with Nvidia GPUs?

It doesn't matter.

[Rynell]

I thought so, thanks!

it matters as much as putting the "go faster" sticker on the front of your case.

as long as the CPU doesn´t bottleneck the GPU it´s the same

well, if you consider, for all GPUs where the cpu is the clear bottleneck, it matters even less if you go amd or nvidia

In the FX8350 days the AMD+Nvidia was a better combo than AMD+Radeon.

 

No clue how it is now.

Due to driver overhead, an Nvidia GPU is actually slightly preferable over an AMD GPU if you have an AMD CPU.

Yes in DX11 and OpenGL? DX12 and Vulkan the problem is fixed but there are not so many games using the new APIs yet. What about DX9 games? Well they are so old we do not care?

The only time radeon graphics cards are best with AMD chipsets is with an APU (a CPU with better graphics capabilities). It's a bit like running the CPUs intergrated graphics in crossfire with the GPU. These "Kaveri" CPUs can only work together with an AMD GPU so make sure you do your homework when buying!

APUs use FM2+ boards, not FM2 as well just so you know
