its about a 60% performance increase,idk how the local price is for you,so you'd have to determine if its worth it for you

Then go for it, if you reallly need the performance get it.

I upgraded from a 7950 to an RX 480 about a year and a half ago and the performance difference was huge - and this was when drivers were immature. The 380 is a bit faster than the 7950, so imagine the difference would be worth it for you too. You can also make up some of the price diff if you sell your card.

 

What are the rest of your specs? AC Origins is CPU heavy. That could be a culprit.

I think that has more to do with your AC: Origins performance than the graphics card. The R9 380 is still a halfway decent GPU. It's around the performance of a GTX 1050 Ti.

 

The game is unbelievably CPU-intensive, to the point where people with Ryzen 7's, 8700K's, or even 6950X's and beyond are still getting unsatisfactory performance despite having very powerful hardware.

Current Build:

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X3D

Current Laptop:

Model: Asus ROG Zephyrus G14

CPU: Ryzen 9 5900HS

GPU: RTX 3060

RAM: 16GB @3200 MHz

 

Old PC:

CPU: Intel i7 8700K @4.9 GHz/1.315v

I upgraded from an R9 380 to an RX 480, and I felt the improvement was great. Very much noticeable in the games that I play.

 

That CPU will hold you back a little I bet. I got improved frames in The Division, Ghost Recon, and Rainbow Six Siege while on my FX 6350. I'm on Ryzen now, so life is grand.

 

Havent played AC Origin, so not too sure about how well that FX can handle it.

Like others have said the cpu might be what is holding you back but as far as the gpu goes here is a handy comparison that might be worth a look

Yes it will be worth it. Depending on the game 50-60% performance improvement.

But first you might think about upgrading your cpu, because the FX6300 will definitely be a bottleneck, regardless of how much you overclock it.

Upgrade your CPU platform first I would recommend, I used to have a i5 3570k and a GTX 970 , I was limited for a while, then I got a 8700k and the 970 would run almost every game at 144Hz max settings because of the CPU

Late 2017 Build : Intel i7 8700k // Asus Prime Z370-A // G.Skill Trident Z 8x2 16GB // EVGA GTX 1080 Ti  // NZXT S320 Elite

I am not so sure regarding the 4GB variant.

 

I just upgraded from an R9 380 with 2GB VRAM to an RX 580 8GB VRAM and the performance difference is pretty massive.

 

However, I would argue that if you are runing at 1080P or even 1440P, you are CPU limited which will bottleneck you a bit.

 

I would say invest in a new platform before upgrading your graphics card, and see how you perform.

 

I had upgraded from an i5 3570 at 4ghz to my R7 1700 at 3.9ghz and I saw an FPS bump and limited FPS dips that I would notice on the i5 went away with Ryzen.

 

You will see a much larger bump with a more solid CPU.

 

For the cost of a GTX 1060, you could easily go the budget route with Ryzen (8GB RAM + B350 Mobo + Ryzen 3) and get a noticeable performance bump.
