Budget Graphics Card's

[tiggar47]

So I'm planning to buy new Professional Graphics Card and my budget isn't really high so I need couple of good recommendations which and why should I buy certain Graphcis Card,

I was looking at few R7, R9 graphics.

 

[don_svetlio]

Either wait for Polaris or get a R9 380 4GB

How much is your budget?

[WickeD1]

You should let us know your current specifications and budget in $usd if possible.

I was thinking around 200 US Dollars.

My current Specs:

AMD A10 7850K Kaver 3.7Ghz Kaveri.

500 GB WD HDD

120 GB SSD Kingston

8 GB Kingston 1600Mhz HyperX Fury Black.

The proffesional Graphcis Card I use now is a potato but can handle some, but I use intergrated one since its more powerfull.

for $200, either go for don's suggestion and get an r9 380 4gb for around $160, 380x for around $180(i think), or wait for polaris if you can.

The R9 380 is around double the performance

And the price.

But it's worth it.

[tiggar47]

Engine Clock on R7 360 is higher+ if its OC Version

Memory Clock on R7 360 is also Higher

Memory Interface is 2x higher on R9 380

Video Memory is 2x Higher on R9 380 so its almost the same xD, I don't really need so stronk graphics card.

And R9 Is double the cost.

So I guess for the extra money I can buy some additional RAM.

The R9 380 has 3 times the internal components so unless the 360 runs at 4GHz it's useless to compare clockspeed.

As a rule of thumb, always go for the best you can afford - the 380 will last a LOT longer since it's a newer revision of GCN and has MUCH better DX12 performance

I am serious, I don't need extreme gaming PC to play "Minecraft"

If I wanted could of gone for Rampage VI and Intel I7 Extreme buy Black Titan X and enjoy.

Need to buy a car for more useful purpases.

The R9 380 is the best budget option as it has the best value (price:performance) - you get less for your money with a 360

My second solution is

CPU: 

AMD FX-9590, 4.7GHz 

MB: 

CROSSHAIR V FORMULA-Z

 

GPU:
EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti

 

RAM: Corsair 16GB Vengeance 2400Mhz OC Memory

 

PSU: Corsair RM Series 1000W

 

Proffesional Cooler: 

Corsair H100i CPU Cooler

What you think, thats max budget I can put into my PC, if you think this can last 5 years I'll buy it.

Nope and don't get that CPU. You will most likely want to change the GPU to something else in 2-3 years. The PSU is overkill.

I know PSU Is more then I need incase since its on 30% discount here and if I ever intend to change something I won't have to change power supply and what about CPU its nice, one of most powerfull amd cpus and isn't really expensive.

but intel cpu are better. Maybe wait for zen if you only want to get amd.

[tiggar47]

I only buy AMD CPU's since this one is on discount I don't see whats wrong with that CPU its a beast and GPU aswell.

 

I was thinking of buying Haswell processor or something but changed my mind.
