I currently have a Sapphire HD 5770 Vapor-X OC 1GB DDR5 for my GPU.

Just joined the pc master race a week ago and most of my pc parts are hand me downs from my cousins.

 

I want an RX 480 so I can have stable framerates for overwatch.

 

I average about 40-50 FPS on overwatch with 50% rendering scale and on 1920 x 1080p.

 

Its a sucky experience. And i want an rx 480 to git gud.

 

Current specs are:

Cpu: g3260

Mobo: asus h81m-c

Ram: kingston 4g 1600mhz

Gpu: sapphire hd 5770 oc vapor-x 1gb ddr5

Psu: 430w circle something.(idk what exact thing it is cuz the sticker is scratched)

 

Tl;dr im just a poor college undergrad that wants stable framerates for overwatch and the rx 480 can help me.

I'm currently using the onboard graphics so an upgrade would be really helpful if you know what I mean :)

I already have a capable PC for myself (specs below) that i use as my workstation. Therefore, the RX480 will be for a very close friend of mine who has been gaming on a Mac for years now. It will give him a jump start in building a gaming PC so that he can join the lot of us when we game on PC only games. Anyway, i wish everyone good luck and thank you for having this giveaway!

Spoiler

I currently have an dying Nvidia GeForce 8500 GT, 8 years old along with its 8 year old computer. Looking to build a new one but everything seems so expensive.
Entering this giveaway in hopes I could finally have something good -_-

I am using a rig with a GTX 670 in it.
Upgraded previously from an ATI 4870. Would love to drop the 7 to get a RX480.

Hopefully this card does not heat up as much as the 4870.

I have a 750 ti. I really want to upgrade, but do not want to spend money on a new card.

R7 370 2GB here, too weak for 1080p 120 Hz gaming.

I'm currently running a gtx 750ti Black Edition. It was certainly a solid card and still holds up alright today, but with the way games consume my life and my craving to play The Witcher 3 without it running like balls, I'd really love to upgrade :'( not having to spend dosh would be fantastic too!

I'm working off a secondhand GeForce 680, and the RX 480 looks like a solid upgrade that I could actually afford.

Hi i would really like to have this new graphis card because now im using a gtx 750 ti and soon im going to get a freesync monitor but I dont have an amd gpu to get most out of it. So i would be really pleased if I could get one of those cards, it would be a great upgrade.

And i really really want it.

Have a r9 290x which runs at 90+ degree celsius when playing games like overwatch and witcher 3, with fan speeds at 50% only because any higher and the fan would be too loud.

 

Would love a polaris upgrade to enjoy a quieter, cooler and more enjoyable gaming experience at 1440p

Currently on a GTX 760, but it would be great to have a new GPU for the upcoming Forza Horizon 3 game.

My AMD HD5800 is bottlenecking my i7-4790k a little.

My sister is running with Intel Graphics right now. But she wants to start doing CAD work for university soon, so a new graphics card is hugely beneficial.

I'm still largely fine with my GTX670 for now :)

HD7790 here. Loving it with every game, but it doesn't show my X5650's true potential.

In my rig, I currently have a 970 G1 Gaming, but on the other hand, my brother is rocking an R7 270 2GB, and its starting to show its struggles, with the games he plays such as DayZ SA (no, its not the game being coded badly, it can be fairly demanding, especially now its on DX11).

But if I was to use this for myself, I really wouldn't mind as I feel like I was sold short on the GTX 970's features, such as DX12 - yes, its there, but there's been so many changes, I don't feel like its worth even having it on the box.

Since my 7970 died 2 and a half years ago I'v been waiting for a 1080p budget card to come out (I'm a graphics whore) so I could finally play all the games I've accumulated in my steam library over the various season sales... unfortunately I'm a starving student now so still no gaming for me :(

Help me LTT. You're my only hope.
