/380/

sorry bud i got the the 390x

i fell for the x meme

>>56187093
I got one because I needed a card for a workstation. I use it for OpenCL password cracking acceleration, it works good.

I got two in Crossfire since I found a deal for them for 189 a pop. Works nice, man.

>>56187093
would get one if they were cheaper, but at current prices it makes no sense to buy them over rx480

I have

ayy, I'll take my chances Gigabyte Ultra Durable™ Series, also, I'm probably getting the Nitro with 8pin (depends on its price)

I was looking forward to buy this exact same model next month, but some fucker bought it a few days ago. Now I have to spend more in a 470.
Fuck my life.

>>56187093
That would be the 7870XT. They could be had for $180 in 2013. Paying more for the same performance two years later isn't exactly a stellar deal.

>>56188113
had one. such a great card.

There are some advantages to going Tonga. Not just gaymen performance. Better encoding, lossless color compression for use in Maya. Better Linux performance and compatibility. To name some.

>>56187093
got a 4gb PCS+ r9 380. does me well for 1080p gayman.

Kind of makes me wish I was still building my gaming PC on a budget. Just so I can go back to my times of Overclocking the living fuck out of CPU/mid-range GPU so I can just squeak by on 1080p.

Really wanted the RX480 just because.

Guess I'll have to deal with my 6700k/980ti Classified.

2gb gtx 650 sc

bought a used GTX 690 for $200 USD and am very happy with it

>>56187901
are you just being dumb or does gigabyte MB not fuck up with 6 pin RX 480?

>>56189102
well, only cheap ass mb get fucked up by the power consumption through pcie slot

>Overclocking the living fuck out of CPU
Budget Intel CPUs can't be overclocked and AMD is not for gaming.

Rocking a nitro 380 4gb @ 1150mhz core. Maxes pretty much everything i play at 1080p sans gameworks and the like and i get at least 45fps. Originally got it as a stepping stone for this gen but this gen is kinda disappointing tbqh. Where the fuck is muh hbm2?

>380
>old
Ayyy, consumerism at its best.

>>56187093
I remember AMD's launching event of the 285...sorry but it was such a huge dissappointment, even the live audience was like "what the fuck"

d... do I make it into the club?

anyone plays world of warcraft with an r9 380(x)?

>>56190906
also fps on rust?

>>56188113
Still have mine. The Sapphire one is particularly great. I overclocked mine to 1250mhz which made it perform almost at HD 7970 levels. Great card.

rocking mine at 100fps in Doom w/vulkan

>>56187093
I'm rocking the 380x

is X worth the extra money?

>>56195487
Yes but there are new cards out so its kinda retarded

>>56195597
wouldn't X and nonX reach the same overclock?

>>56195924
it doesn't matter the 470 is out and is close in price to the 380x but is way better

>>56195950
you are right

>>56195924

300 series cards are garbage. just by the 7xxx or 2xx series equivalent and OC them. same performance as the rebrand for $50 less.

even then you were able to get refurb 290 and 970s for $250 when these cards were new.

>>56196215

You have a 4G 285/280X? Does your dad work at Nintendo too?

>>56196275

there were 4GB 285's, AMD phased out the 2GB variant when they rebranded it as the 380.

>280x

there were 6gb 7970's too. not sure if they kept making them under the 280x name tho.

>tfw crossfiring 270x has served me well for 5 years

As a college student with no income it was great to be able to play most games on med/high at 60 FPS.

Now that's no longer the case though. Probably getting a 1070 unless I can find a really good deal on a 980ti or Fury X or something.

>>56188113
why is everything today just a rebrand of this generation
yet twice the price???????????????????

>>56196672
ayyemdee doesn't have the money to design new shit every generation, that's why.

>>56196215
>7xxx or 2xx series equivalent
the 2x series is a rebrand of the 7xx series..
and then 3x series was a rebrand of the previous rebrand
only to release overpriced shittttttt performing gpus with the rx series.

fuck the gpu market. i'm going home

>>56196838
Not as if they even need to.
The 'rebranded' 7970's are still hitting above the belt of new nVidia designs.

>>56196838
even shilldya is relaesing rebrand after rebrand..
or worse le 3.5gb meme
and continues upping the price without increasing performance

got the same one senpai. on sale for 150 bucks.
really like the quality of it. and a backplate.

in my country the 470 is the same price as the 380. which one should i get?

>>56189102
No motherboards fuck up with the RX 480. since that one hoax at launch, there has been not a single report of motherboard issues caused by the 480. I'm using a cheap business grade MSI motherboard with one and it's perfectly fine

>>56187798
>at current prices

the 380s have dropped like a bomb in price

i just ordered a 380x for about half the original price.

>>56187093
I'm using the best most underrated graphics processor out there. it's called a fucking integrated gpu you moron.

kys

I bought a 380 4gb earlier this year because I couldn't wait any longer. I had a 560ti before that which served me very well and cost roughly the same at the time.

I can already see the 380 struggling so it won't last anywhere near as long as the 560 did.

I've not had any problems so far either. It just twerks.

Also how far do you nigs OC this thing?

>>56190029
how?

my is R9 380 is on 1030 /1450 default and when ever I change something, fps drops slightly

>>56198587
Silicon lottery i guess? I have no idea honestly just read online about people easily hitting 1150 core and tried it and it worked flawlessly.

>>56198866
What's the performance gain like?

>>56198866
Also did you just ram that power slider to +20%? Always wondered how risky it is.

>>56198866
did you check fps afterwards?

I tried everything up to 1150 with all kind of voltages and I never scored more than with default in that valley tool. Ingame I lost up to 4-5 fps...

>>56198919
Too hot or something? Shitty PSU?

>>56198936
76-80°C was max

750 Watt Power Supply

>>56198897
I cant remeber since ive been running it like this for half a year now but i think i gained like 5 frames all across the board.
>>56198917
Yeah i maxed the power limit and set up a custom fan curve but thats it. No problems so far tho tweaking memory speed is just asking for trouble imo so fuck that. My psu is a cooler master v750 if that helps.

>>56198981
Okay thanks I'll play with it more. I think my power slider is at 15% because I was worried going higher requires better binning or something.

>>56198866
>tfw can't hit 1150 without artifact'ing
I have the mV at 70, is tht enough?
I can get my Memory to 1600 though.

Explain? I have a 380x and thinking of installing linux.
