Which graphics card?

[NSDUO]

Should I get a r9 fury, a 1060, or a rx 480? Which one is best value?

[The Sloth]

i would go for r9 fury, its faster than a 480 and a 1060.

Else get a 480, less power and cheaper

and it also uses significantly more power, and is seemingly a decent chunk more pricy as well.

 

it's a bit an odd ball out the 3, really.

well it still is one of the best cards, performance being under a 1070, power doesn't matter too much assuming OP has a decent psu.

I would go for the rx 480 because you could get a second card in the future and it has newer drivers

assuming OP is in one of those lucky few places where power is cheap enough to create the myth that it doesnt matter at all no matter the power cost.

Only if he sources a used Fury. Based on his post I don't think that were his intentions.

... i am sure extra power won't mount to an astronomical power bill, out of the three the r9 is the best.

The Fury is only a better deal if you can get a good price on a used one.

i'll put it like this: i got my 970 5 months before the R9 390 launched, which at the time had -for most people- better performance per dollar than the 970, but in those 5 months i had earned back said difference by the "neglible" amount of money i saved on my power bill.

This is an old YouTube video that proves nothing. I want to see a current deal.

just an fyi, the only r9 fury i can find in belgium is priced above €500, it'll hugely depend on OP's location if that's even an option.

i meant to talk about OP post also its evident a card that compares close to a 1070 won't be cheap.

not gonna say it's a bad deal, but this review of said seller should be a word of caution at least:

Quote

Sells used products as new. Upon arriving, GPU box was obviously opened and serial number label was taped over. I packaged it right back up, made them send me a label and sent it back. Also requested that they replace with a brand new one, but they said they had no more. Meanwhile, i saw them posting and selling the same GPU again on Amazon at a higher price. Waste of time vendor and they slow!
