high to very high

My 290x smashes the fuck out of everything

yes

Only cpu's you gotta worry about are fx chips

Or first gen i7's and below

Can't get a word in, but for gpu's

Don't go older than Gtx 900's or Radeon 200's

I'd look at a 980/ti or a Fury/X

@blondishasp i see you man and you're correct lol

If he's on a budget then the 970 is the best option

agreed.

I also don't get the hate on AMD

My gf thinks we worship trump, should I tell her... The truth?

AMD gpus are fantastic... if you use linux

I have to disagree

moonmanmoonmancantyousee

i have a 970 i need to sell

They are great, unless you go high end.

Vega is shitty

Polaris isn't

the RX Vega 64 beats the 1080ti in Linux

like by a decent margain

yeah opengl

/vulkan etc

if I could find one at msrp id get it in a heartbeat

But for directx Polaris are a strong contender

it's agnostic to api's

Just wait for july

yeee

Nvidia is launching a new arch in july

And amd has Navi on the way too

I want an all amd build but unless they really ramp up the gpu area its not gonna happen. I play vr a lot

Yeah if you want the best then nvidia is what to get

and i hate them as a company

Indeed

Nvidia are literally greedy fucks

Same with Intel

AMD did run a better red than dead campaign though and im not sure how I feel about that

Hence why I came when zen launched. My 1600x is a dream.

the 1600x is fantastic if you dont just game

Even if you do, its 200-250 for a i5 contender that has the cores to last
