Should i sell my gtx 980 and buy an RX580, its a lot newer, more vram, longer support i presume and depending on the model i choose i will have money left
image not related though its the only aftermarket gpu avalable now
>>381929957
I just hold onto my cards untill they stop running games
>>381930298
sadly i am cursed with a lust for shiny things
>>381930496
If you run out of money you can't buy shiny things you goober
>>381929957
No, may as well keep it until it croaks. I bought an 8gb rx 470 for about £175 on a bid, I can confirm very few games push past 4gb at 1080p without needing a processor in tandem that is very expensive.
>>381929957
>RX580
NO, keep your card for now, is impossible buy a good Polaris card (RX 470,480, 570,580) thanks to the fucking miners
An RX 580 is about on par with a 980, maybe a bit better depending on the game, so no, I wouldn't bother.
>>381929957
nah, even if you had a 970 it wouldnt be wise to upgrade until the next gen
>>381929957
The prices are crazy right now because of miners and I would just stick with nVidia, to be honest.
The only upgrade I would recommend, considering the card you have, is a 1080. But I wouldn't recommend it, honestly. Just wait a year for the next cycle and consider upgrading then if a good game comes out.

>buy new shiny thing
>it breaks because it's a fucking AMD and doesn't work out of the box
>shop refuses warranty return
The joke is on you, I suppose.

>muh novidea, ayymd BTFO

>>381929957
You're first mistake is buying a fucking AMD card
>>381932504
>had nothing but trouble with amd while working on computer systems

>>381932670
>inb4 no actual arguments against AMD exept pre-2012 shit
thanks for the input
Which is best cost benefit gpu?
>>381932710
maybe you were retarded, after all you are on here, its not our problem you cant set up your gpu properly
>>381932781
No problem my dude
>>381933019
ah i apologise, didnt know you were retarded and illiterate
>>381932884
>set up gpu properly meme
>it "works" but barely, screen tearing in most games
>try everything, including flashing bios, vsync force on, custom drivers
>no effect
>return it to the store for a price equal nvidia, pay the minor difference
>works just fine
Uh-huh. And since you're on here as well, wouldn't that make us both retards? I certainly feel retarded trying to explain something to the likes of you.
>>381929957
>buy an RX580
good luck with that
>>381934743
oh yea blame AMD because your card manufacturer made a shitty batch, and i never said i wasnt a retard but it seems you consider yourself above us
>>381935135
As far as dealing with PC hardware goes, I certainly am above you. You could chalk it up to a faulty batch by a shit manufacturer if it were a singular case, but it was not. Throught my entire time with the IT, it was always the fucking AMD Gpu's that shat the bed, every single time. They had a decade to get their shit together and they still couldn't, you have no fucking idea what it was like when AMD didn't even have working drivers and the worst you could say about Nvidia were housefire jokes.
>>381929957
Don't bother, despite the VRAM increase it's actually barely an upgrade. Only card out that is really worth the upgrade from there is the 1080Ti.
Are you bitcoin mining? If not then why would you want to downgrade your card??
>still waiting Sapphire 580 Nitro+™ restock
Vega will be out before this horseshit stabilizes.
>>381930809
Listen to this man. Miners have fucked supply and scalpers are the only ones left.
>>381936682
Alright poojeet, take your 2 cents and go away now, you did your job already.
You're fucking garbage at dealing with hardware. If every single piece of hardware you touch is broken while it works for everyone else, the blame is on you, retard.
>>381929957
>should I sell this card and buy a shittier one?
Hmm
>>381936941
DUDE IN 5 YEARS THIS 580 WILL PERFORM 5% BETTER IN NEW GAMES THAN A 970!
