Yeah, I'd go for it if it's the same price as a 760. Don't know US pricings off the top of my head though

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X - CPU Cooler: Deepcool Castle 240EX - Motherboard: MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC

RAM: 2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance Pro RBG 3200MHz - GPU: MSI RTX 3080 GAMING X TRIO

Cool :) Do you think it would be possible to flash a 280x bios on it to get petter performance?

I don't know. I'm not too keen on BIOS flashing.

Ryzen 1600@3.8ghz / 16gb 2400mhz / ASRock B350 ITX / Gigabyte RX 470 4gb / 256gb M.2 / SG13B-Q / Corsair 450w

It's a 7950. Compare that to a 760 to find your benchmarks. It's not significantly better.

But if I end up Xfiring/Sli-ing in the future (Which I most likely will be doing) the 760 would be held back by the 2GB Vram. Plus I might go higher res monitor in the future

Life.exe is missing

Priced competitively against the GTX760, is generally faster and has more VRAM, what's not to like? :wub:  GET IT!!! :D

It wasn't my intent to answer your question. The goal was assistance, not solution.

Not sure. No point even if you could. You wouldn't get more performance from it compared to just oc'ing it.

It a decent bit better than the 760. Get it if you'd like.
