Alright, which one of you crazy fucks is using a system with a Nvidia GPU and an AMD CPU?
>>55743335
Considering it.
Im rocking an APU at the moment. Mostly because I'm a cheap fuck but they have their benefits in that they use the extra available RAM space for memory. With the added benefit of a GPU I'll be able to use the APU along side it but I'm wondering if it will have any crossfire-esque capabilities once I do so.
Am I dreaming to big or am I retarded. I get that it will preform way worse that two gpus and a cpu but I'm wondering if I'll simply bottleneck or if buying a fuckton of ram will help push it into something decent.
I am, the card was a hand-me-down
Waiting for Zen, hopefully 4 cores 8 threats one will be a cheaper alternative to Intel.
Phenom II 965 + GTX 460 here

Even the most AMD fanboys doesn't use AMD CPUs. 85Watt Intel fucks 230Watt AMD CPU. Not the mentioning 230Watt thing is basically asking for a housefire.
>>55743335
I have only ever used AMD/ATI or Intel/Nvidia. It just seem like the natural way of things. I certainly hope no one who comes to /g/ would ever do anything other than that.
AMD CPU, Nvidia GPU and Linux KPU (Kernular Processing Unit).
Come at me.

Processing power doesnt matter as much in vidya
I buy an AMD cpu+mobo and save money for a good Nvidia gpu.
Overclocked 8320e at 4.2 ghz with a 970.
I am a living meme.
>>55743335
Nvidia drivers have lower CPU overhead than AMD drivers, so if you've got an AMD cpu, you're often better off going with an Nvidia GPU.
>>55743335
Technically meeting your criteria. Here's my server.
It's just a cobbled together system from mostly free parts. The only thing I paid for was the CPU, and it was as cheap as I could get it.
Fx8320 and a 970
i7 6700k and 380x here
Alright you got me.
>>55743828
AMD with an Intel CPU is completely normal, especially when its required for their high end cards due to shit drivers
>>55743490
Well yeah it has 8 cores for dirt cheap. Gotta compromise somewhere.
>>55743335
Used to have a system with a GTX 970 and FX-8350 before I upgraded to a dual 980ti rig.
>>55743808
my nigga
FX 6300 and a GTX 960
Upgraded from an i5 3570 and GTX 650ti
>>55743691
3.5 is plenty, anything more is a cuck
>>55743676
Same rolling with a fx-8300 and a 750 oc edition cuz i got no money to upgrade to a better gpu yet
650 ti and Phenom II x4 840T here. Still runs fantastically, partly because of using GNU+Linux.
I always use AMD CPUs and every build I've ever had has my first GPU I ever bought (Quadro FX 560) along with my AMD GPU
>>55743335
FX-8350 and a 970 here
>>55743867
WHY CAN'T AMD FUCKING CAPITALIZE THE (tm)?????????????????
Reporting in
>Phenom II X6 1100T
>AMD graphics card explodes, well I'm not doing this again
>now on a GTX 660
I'm in the process of upgrading though, so this memery will come to and end soon enough
>>55743335
Hell-bound
I made mine out of budget parts a few years ago, the CPU is the only thing that hasn't been replaced, so whenever I do, I reckon I'll drop AMD ...
>>55743692
stop samefagging your retarded meme in every thread
If AMD fucks up on Vega ill have a Zen+Nvidia system
im more confident in them rebounding on CPUs
FX 6300 + 550ti, I am feeling the card becoming old.
>Hey the fx 8350 and i5 4460 are similarly priced
>This one is slightly cheaper, and has 8 cores! Wow!
>these guys on /g/ are full of shit, most modern games can't be THAT single threaded
That's how I got memed into an amd cpu.
>gtx 9604gb was on sale for $185
>r9 380 was about $205 at the time
It's not that hard it imagine, OP.
x4 845 aqnd a 950 here, $350 tower all in, no os or ssd though
>>55744205
lol okay

kek, same here, I couldn't stand the 8350 so I upgraded to a i5 4440 with a cheap Z87 motherboard a few months later, now I'm using the same motherboard with a 4690K which I got like 2 months ago.
Fx 6300 and 1070 here, just in between builds.
The bottleneck is crazy, but significantly better than my old GPU.
>>55744330
You kinda just sidegraded moving from 8350 to a 4440. The 4690k was probably a nice boost though if you OC it though.
I would have just stayed with the 8350 until I couldn't stand it, then make a generational upgrade, to use ddr4 and stuff. Actually that's exactly what I'm doing. Wait for Zen™
