Had Two even well into Skylake

Run most games on 1080p flawlessly

enjoy

I'm saying its an awesome card. I literally see no difference from the gtx 960 I had previously. And it's like 6 years older.

>>55007913
If I can find another for around the same price then I will definitely try out sli.

>not getting 2 480s
wew lad

>>55008110
Do you want to start a housefire?

>>55008110
Running 2 480's would cost you approx $400 + $78.89/year based on $0.12/Kwh electricity bill.

If you are dumb enough to get the founders edition 1070 it will cost $450 + $39.44/kWh in electricity.

This means in 1.2 years you will be paying more for the 2 RX 480's.

>>55007938
somehow i doubt that unless you have a massive cpu bottleneck going on.

AMD for Life

I remember my GTX 260. It was the best card I ever had. Decent performance, fan quiet at 100%, and very low temps. It idled in the 30s.

But Nvidia is dead to me now.

Assuming the TDP's are accurate, and they're 100% loaded at all times.

In reality 480 Crossfire probably uses around 220 watts
1070 uses around 170 watts
Call it 32 hours of gaming a week, 480 crossfire needs $3.38 a month, 1070 needs $2.61. Means 65 months to equal out.

I have the Quadro version of this card.
It's incredibly terrible. I wanted to get another one to put in SLI with the first one but when I noticed that the air path was mainly getting out from the bottom of the card, I stepped back.
It gets terrible framerates in the rare games I tried. On Metal Gear Revengeance, it's terrible, and it can't handle TF2 on medium at 60 FPS.
Now, it runs Battlefield 1942 all fine but, come on...

No, it was a time when 896MB "looked" more than 1GB
