If you enjoy crashing drivers, poorly optimized games, cards getting killed because fans don't ramp up, bad driver release schedules, and excessive power consumption compared to competing NVidia cards, sure.

i use a tri-x r9 390 and the only problems i ever had are flickering compass on fallout 4 after installing crimson which was quickly fixed by adding the older driver dlls in the game folder
card is pretty quiet and often runs at 75C~ 100% load with +100mv @ 1140/1600
feel free to continue shitposting though

Here we have the NVIDIA shill

The 380X really doesn't seem worth it. There's not much a performance difference between it and a 4GB 380.

He's not wrong about shitty drivers, I got Crimson and it made my games run worse, partially my fault because "it's a Beta!!!"

Poorly optimized games are only when Nvidia gimmicks are used, AMD processors are usually the main problem with devs being assholes and making single core performance so important in games

Otherwise I'm happy with my 270, I don't play that many new games

Mine works perfectly.

Get a 290x. 290 that I have right now (Gigabyte trifan) is pretty great for everything. Battlefront looks tight af
>>
>>52519842
Then just get a 380

Ask your wife's son first.

Maybe he just needs a hug.

>>52519534
If u live in the Americas I'd sell you a lightly used hd 7870 on the cheap
