Hey all. My friend's gpu died and I've been thinking about getting a new gpu anyways. I have a g4620 and the 480 is only $20 more than a 470. Would it be worth to spend the extra $20 even with my cpu?

up to you, i would say yes but remember that your cpu will be a bottleneck. 

Yea that is why I'm wondering if it is really worth the extra $20.

I'm not even looking up your CPU because I know I can say that if you get the higher end card now for just $20 more, then you can put it in a higher end system in the future and be glad for the difference at that point

Q: Do I have a virus?!
A: If you didn't click a sketchy email, haven't left your computer physically open to attack, haven't downloaded anything sketchy/free, know that your software hasn't been exploited in a new hack, then the answer is: probably not.

 

Q: What email/VPN should I use?
A: Proton mail and VPN are the best for email and VPNs respectively. (They're free in a good way)

 

Q: How can I stay anonymous on the (deep/dark) webzz???....

A: By learning how to de-anonymize everyone else; if you can do that, then you know what to do for yourself.

 

Q: What Linux distro is best for x y z?

A: Lubuntu for things with little processing power, Ubuntu for normal PCs, and if you need to do anything else then it's best if you do the research yourself.

 

Q: Why is my Linux giving me x y z error?

A: Have you not googled it? Are you sure StackOverflow doesn't have an answer? Does the error tell you what's wrong? If the answer is no to all of those, message me.

Why not? The RX 480 is simply the more powerful card. The G4620 is a decent CPU.
