As someone who has a PC from 6 years ago. Should i make/buy a new one now with a 1070 or wait for le ebin HBM2 cards?
Everyone says that that shit will destroy anything, literally heaven etc. etc.
Will it be really such a big jump?

Expect a 100% increase in speed, in everything. More if you are coming off a low-tier build.
What is your current setup? What do you do with it?
Not OP. But my builds 6 ish years old too, thinking about upgrading as well.
I5 3750 i think?(@ work)
8gb ram
Gtx 660
Asus extreme z99 mobo ( i think)
2 out of the 5 usb's work.
I think it's time for an upgrade

Just need a new card, if you are gaming.
>>56126426
CPU and motherboard do not exist
You mean the 3570/K and Z77?
>>56126426
This is still fine.
>>56126458
unless hes an ultra settings fag above 1080p.. not really

>6 ish years old
>components are all from mid-late 2012
cant make this shit up
>>56126358
its great apparently
i got pissed off with amds driver shenanigans and gonna buy a 1070
but you pay pretty great prices too. id say its still too expensive for what you get, unless you dont care about money
>>56126358
I was wondering this too, decided to get a 1070 for now and upgrade later to 1080ti or big vega if it isn't shit

If you have a top tier Sandy bridge or faster you should just get a newish gpu and an ssd. Shit be flyin'

Where the fuck did you take this retarded shit from fucking shill.

>4 or 500 series to 1070
Yeah that's at least double the speed
is it time to upgrade my i5 2500k?
>>56128206
more than, honestly
I have a 290x and the 1080 sits at about 200% performance of that in most games
my 290x in turn got close to 200% performance over my old 7950, which itself would BTFO any thing even a generation before that
i'd say coming from a 500 series card to a 1070 would net a 300% increase in performance, so long as the CPU matches it
>>56128234
yes
This is what i'm using
Cpu: [email protected]
Gpu: geforce 7600 gs
2gb ram
motherboard: (Msi) Ms:7267 Lg 775
I need something current
