R9 390 vs GTX 1060

[SirDarknight]

Title says it all, Currently rocking a 390, will a 1060 give me better FPS in 1080p@60Hz ?

Maybe a little bit. Depends on game. But don't spend money on that. The main difference is the power consumption--->heat---->noise.

That's what I thought, I don't have any problem with the heat & noise. It's just some guy who claimed 1060 gets 15-20 FPS more than 390

It seems more of a sidegrade though it would be fun to see where the R9 390 places against the new line ups from AMD and Nvidia.

might be true in some games, but not every single one. And even if so, would you pay about $300 for 20FPS? especially if it's well above 60 anyways?

I don't even think that's true.. the 390 is a powerful card, I rly doubt the 1060 is in any way better

390 is slightly worse, but you can oc it. The 390x is also on the same chip and it beats the 1060

And the R9 390 can even mine ethereum damn good ^^

Nah, gonna stick to it for a while. Getting 50-60FPS in almost all games in Ultra-high. And I'm quite happy.
