Polaris/Pascal or R9 380x?

[sakibrb]

I'm hopefully getting a pc on 1st week of Feb with an skylake i5 6500, and wanted to get a Sapphire nitro R9 380x 4gb card, but a lot of people are saying to wait for Pascal or Polaris, now with the new GDDR5X released with double the bandwidth of gddr5 should I wait for it? Can i5's integrated gfx run games like cs go? And when is the new gpu lineup coming? Thanks in advance

We don't have powers to allow us to see the future. The rumors say the new architectures from both sides will be way larger jumps than their previous gen cards were to the ones before those, but we also cannot confirm this.

 

If you wanna buy now, buy now. I personally recommend making do with what you currently own, if you already own a decent setup. If not, then buy something.

 

Also, yes i5's can run CS:GO just fine by themselves.

Oh god. Yes

Just get that i5 and use the iGpu for CS:GO

Polaris is probably just around the corner. (lots of rumors being thrown around)

just realize that might actually be a while. *Months"
