Which Card???

JeBu5tHeUn1c0rN · October 30, 2016

Hey, so i know ive already posted something about the rx480 and the 1060. I need some more advice, as my budget has drastically expanded due to the decision to wait till next year. I can now afford something in the £600-£700 price range ($731-$853), but again i have the same issue, or restriction.... I have a G2460V from AOC and it supports free-sync, but i dont know much about AMD high end gpus (do they exist). Any ideas?

you could wait for the rx 490 or the rx490x (if they are coming out)

Are they supposed to be in the 1070/1080 performance range?

they are, maybe even more. but they benefit from free-sync

It that's your budget and you plan on waiting id wait to see if 1080Ti may fit in that price range. (Prob 1000, since Titan is still far far away and nothing from AMD is touching them right now).

Second, AMD Verga ups... Vega (spanish joke) may break some performance charts since AMD needs them ASAP. As it is today with 800 1080 is your best bet. But, next year... who knows.

Yh, im kinda planning a 3 year project, so the first year (this christmas) im upgrading pretty much everytyhing except the gpu, next year im getting just a good gpu, and final year i was thinking of a custom water cooling loop. You know, since my wallet isn't overflowing with money...
