Poorfag here, I'll be getting a GPU soon after using on board graphics for 2 years. I only play at 1080p/60fps so I was thinking on buying a 1060 6GB (msi 425$) or a 580 8GB (gigabyte 360$). Third world prices. Which one should I go for or should I wait for Vega/something else?
>>
>>377616293
>should I wait for Vega/something else
no, vega is amd high end which is in a different price point

considering the price, I'd go for the 580
>>
>>377616293
Get the 580, it's easily superior to the 1060
>>
>>377616293
If you have shitty cpu, nvidia will perform better.
If you have good cpu, they are around equal
>>
>>377616293
580, people say sapphire brand is doing better than expensive counterparts as well (at least in amd)
>>
>>377616293
Get the 480 if its cheaper. 580 is just an overclocked 480. And, why not just ship it to your location? You'll probably get it cheaper.
>>
The 580 It's slightly better and cheaper, go for the AMD.
>>

>bought a 480 2 months ago
>now regret I did not wait for the 580
I have a shitty FSP 600w PSU and the 480 has lower power consumption, but I think it could have worked with a 580 too
>>
Of those two 580 is the better buy.
>>
Wait, there's a 580 now? I literally bought a 8GB 480 a couple of months ago, did I fuck up?
>>
>>377616293
580 is cheaper and faster, so why would you get the 1060?

Also your countries prices are fucking shit dude. You could get a 1070 in America.
>>
>>377620449

Shouldn't 600W be enough?
>>
>>377620405
damn, you're a nigger

OP, the 480 was about as good value as the 1060; the 580 is definitely better
>>
>>377620720
No, 580 is 2-3% faster. It's basically nothing.
>>
>>377620829
600W should be plenty, honestly.
>>
>>377620720
They're very nearly the same exact thing. Go look at benchmarks.
>>
>>377620871
Shitters should be dealt with. Why the fuck should my games have to suffer because you have shit specs. Might as well go buy a fucking console at this point.
>>
>>377620405
so u have nothing to say
>>
>>377620953
>>377620889
Thanks, niggers. I have mine overclocked to 1310 MHz on stock voltage, which is approximately a 3% clock increase compared to the reference RX480, so I guess it's the same shit.
>>
>>377620829
>>377620952
Perhaps, but I am not sure about the quality of the PSU. I rarely see people mention or recommend FSP PSUs. Doubt they are chinkshit tier though
>>
>>377621001
A 1060 or 580 isn't shit specs, though. Either could easily max out a recent game at 60FPS 1200p.
>>
>>377616293
I bought a 1060 gtx 6gb on newegg.ca for can$ 350. With ghost recon wildlands. You're getting robbed.
>>
>>377621001
>A GTX 980 is now shit
Oy vey!
>>
So what's Vega going to cost? $300-$350? It's supposed to compete with the 1070 right?
>>
>>377621209
FSP doesn't get mentioned because their retail units are nothing worth mentioning. They're solid, but the competition just makes better units for the same money. They're a pretty large OEM though, many PSUs are rebrands of their stuff and a lot of prebuilts came with an FSP unit.
>>
>>377621001
A 580 and 1060 are both better than the Pro retard.
>>
>>377622194
Rumor is there's three price points, $399 which competes with 1070, $499 which competes with 1080 and $599 which competes with 1080Ti. A $600 1080Ti equivalent with HBM2 sounds pretty appealing, but who knows how many will be available with all these HBM2 shortages.
>>
>>377623085
Dang I was hoping $350 would be the minimum. If it's $400 might as well go for a 1070 but I'm unsure how HBM will perform.
>>
I have a GTS450 and was wondering if instead of buying an entire new PC I can just change the GPU.
Motherboard P8H61, PSU 500W, i5 2500. I-d probably by an used one but I-m afraid of compatibility issues with the motherboard.
>>
Why not hit up used GPU on eBay or something. Got a second 970 for 179$
>>
Which one is better for a laptop?
>>
>>377623958
I still see people swear by the i5-2500k, but I guess you have the non k version so it's probably worth it to just go all new honestly. However, no harm in just upgrading the GPU first and seeing how things turn out.
>>
>>377624258
Yeah I was thinking the same. I have to read up on GPU compatibility and power comsumption though, I know nothing about it. I put both my 1st PC together but that shit was colorcoded, didnt really knew anything at the time, just needed an ultra cheap build which is obviously lagging behind now.

unless you plan on having hardcore graphics, don't bother with the vega
get the 580 instead

the price is pretty good for the quality
>>
580 at those prices. If they were the same price, 1060 6GB for DX11, 580 8GB for DX12
>>
>>377624442
The only real compatibility issue I could see is if your mobo had pci instead of pci-e, but yours does have pci-e so you're probably fine to just get a new card. Obviously do some research into this yourself, but I think you should be fine.
>>
>>377624789
Thank you mate. I will read up on it and try to make the best of what I already got. Hope the 500W is enough. Maybe one day when I have a proper job I can get one of those fancy SSDs.
>>
>>377623958
>afraid of compatibility issues with the motherboard
are you serious? you realize that motherboards for the last decade + has been using a pci-e standard. jesus christ how fucking underaged are you fucking niggers

Uh?

If you're doing 1080/60 you don't need 8gb of ram.
>>
I have a 280x, should I wait for Vega or get a 580?
>>
>>377626912
Wait for Navi
>>
>>377626065

It's cheaper though
>>
>>377626065
Games are already starting to recommend 16GB, not having 8GB is just gimping yourself for no reason.
>>
So as somebody who isn't a poor fag, should I get the 1080 or 1080ti?
>>
>>377628397
>Games are already starting to recommend 16GB

since when
>>
>>377628747
Get a TITAN XP, you poor faggot.

1070 is the 1440p/60 card. 1080 is kind of in that weird "can do better than 60 but often can't hit 144" territory.

Recommend AMD cards only, to foster market competition.

Only buy Nvidia for myself

I can't believe people are falling for marketing hype. I repeat it again for fuck sake for the 13 time now in /v/ fuckdamnit. The 500 series is literally an overclock 400 series. Overclocking your 400 series even marginally and you will get the same performance as the 500 series.

My bad, I meant vram for the 580.
