I am back. Well maybe. Anyway, no video for now. OBS not working. ReLive still has issues and FRAPS/MSI Afterburner does not work with Vulkan

 

Doom ran with 90 fps + maxing out almost at 120fps 

1080p, maxed out settings even MSAA and Motion Blur. A really enjoyable game

Fan speed seems to be quite high though. Can not measure temps though unfortunately.

How come your card only uses a 6 pin power connector. Wasn't there some power problems with AMD's reference card because it was using a 6 pin. All non reference ones runs on 8 pins.

It was power consumption issues they fixed with drivers.

It is also the cheapest 1080p card ( I don't consider RX 470/1050 Ti or any other card a good 1080p match)

This logic is terrible.  "It was the cheapest because I didn't consider anything else."

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!

?? a RX480 is better than a RX470 which in turn is better than a 1050ti...I don't see any issues with his statement :P

I get decent 1080p gaming with a 750Ti.  To say that an RX470 is the bottom of the barrel is ridiculous.

When did I said it was the bottom? Why would I go with 470 when I can do 480???

Yeah and your 750ti, I upgraded from a 760. Decent? Old game yes, new game. Unless you drop to low then no. It is not decent
