I found an RX Vega 56 and a GTX 1070 MSI armor for the same price, i need a new GPU i dont want to wait for theoretical price drops that will happen after another generation of GPUs is already out, which one should i go for
>>
I've had 1070 for less than a year, and I've had no problems clocking rock-solid 60fps in any game at ~Ultra settings, on a 2-screen system.
>>
>>389557353
What price are you talking about?
>>
vega nigga
>>
>>389557579
410 euros from a local seller
>>
>>389557353
been using an evga gtx 1070 acx 3.0 for like 6 months now and it's a really good gpu. i've got it overclocked to around 2ghz and even it shitty optimized games like pubg i can easily achieve over 80 fps average.

i'd say go for the aftermarket 1070 since the stock amd cooler is known trash and sounds like a jet engine whilst also cooling like shit.
>>
>>389557787
You can buy a 1080 for that price.
>>
>>389558015
show me a place that delivers internationally(or atleast to eastern europe) for that price and i'll fucking believe it
>>
>>389558079
Which country are you in
>>
>>389558109
bulgaria
>>
>>389558161
I'm sorry to hear that
>>
>>389557353
Vega 56 is faster.
>>
>>389558271
join the queue, my only options are amazon.de/fr/it and maybe .co.uk if the import taxes dont make the price about the same and local sellers
>>
>>389558161
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Asus-GeForce-GTX-1080-8GB-GDDR5X-1733MHZ2560-10GBPS-25Bit-Turbo-Graphic-Card-/253094561036?epid=2164318464&hash=item3aed9c850c:g:pxYAAOSw4yRZkMOO

$520. There was on on there yesterday for $500.
>>
>>389558672
and with the import taxes i get fucked up the ass probably
>>
>>389558376
i have a bunch of friends who study in bulgaria and they come back every summer to the UK and buy their shit here and then go back. the plane tickets are piss cheap so maybe just organize a weekend over christmas with your mates and come down to the UK and buy all your hardware here without being extorted by amazon EU prices and then just take the shit back. it's a £20 plane ticket there and back and you'll probably save like ~50 euro all together anyway + you get a short holiday abroad out of it too.

it's not uncommon for people to travel to different countries to buy shit and bring it back. i actually know a guy who drives all the way from UK to north africa to buy materials and brings them back to make a fucking fortune in profits. if you're willing, the option is always there.
>>
>>389559047
im not going to the UK thank you very much
>>
>>389559047
This post is laughable.
>just go on an international vacation with your bros, bro
>>
>>389558790
If it's used it could be less.
>>
>>389559365
>£18 flight
>2-3 hour journey
>save money + holiday

stay broke. i make £10,000 profit selling fucking selfie sticks i brought over from czech republic 2 years ago. ready to make another 50 grand bank by the end of this year.
>>
>>389557353
1070 easy. Unless you've got a 1000w psu and want to cook your other components with your AMD card
>>
AMD fanboy here. Definitely Vega for the Freesync and Finewine potential.
Can't say I would buy one right now though, reference cards are not that great and drivers need some polish
>>
>>389559365
Might as well hop onto plane to america and get it 50% cheaper there and go right back.
>>
>>389559985
lets be serious, winter is coming and that Vega could save him some heating bills.

get the Vega 56, check pic
>>
56 is faster, has more OC potential and AMD still hasn't released proper drivers for it so it's going to get faster in the future.
>>
>>389560240
this is a good idea. i'm going to america to buy those new pixio monitors to resell in the EU. will probably make upwards of ~20k if i can get the stock numbers i want.
>>
>>389560837
How do you plan to carry them through the border?
>>
>>389560905
OP here, my pc was build in italy and i carried the entire build and all the boxes in a travel case and no one told me shit about it
>>
>>389560359
>the undervolt shill finally showed up
Took you long enough.
>what is silicon lottery
>>
>>389560905
>what is a shipping crate
>>
>>389560979
There is difference between a travel case and a fuckign shipping crate full of expensive tech.
>>
Apparently the way to go is to grab a Vega 56, flash the Vega 64 bios on it, amd undervolt for near 64 levels of performance.
>>
>>389561038
>what is silicon lottery
it's alright, letherjacketmanlet. why don't you explain to us why you can undervolt the Vega cards and get better results? guess you know nothing.
>>
>>389561038
undervolting and overclocking still increases total power consumption by %35. vega is an absolute joke all around unless you're buying it for mining
>>
>>389561220
well then why the fuck dont you find someone to supply you that tech from there
>>
>>389561296
>guess you know nothing.
Guess you don't know what silicon lottery means. Not all dies can sustain stable undervolt. I can post 7700k OC @5.1GHz 1.3V and it doesn't mean all chips can do it.
>>
>>389561468
Thats by far the best way, if you have literally anyone visiting the states just beg them to get you all the tech for cheap.
