Looking to spend under $600 on a gpu single one and wanted to know which one would be good for gaming and photoshop.

Anything that is CUDA accelerated tends to be much faster on comparable Nvidia cards (OpenCL plugins just tend to be worse right now.)

 

You will need to find out if any of the processes you are doing for photoshop use cuda.

 

Oh and either way, the 980ti is available (assuming you mean USD) which is the best gaming choice at that price point anyways.

Adobe supports AMD gpus now.

Photoshop will run decently on integrated GPU anyways.

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

I know Adobe overall does, but some of the random plugins each professional pays/uses for are very particular (naturally you can correct me here, but that has been my limited experience).

Yes it depends on what you use.

Photoshop will do rather well on the iGPU, but on Windows and adobe applications specifically, NVidia excels. Software that is optimized for , or has proper implementation of openCL will perform better with AMD
