Fruity Posted November 22, 2018 Share I get notifications from them .. Been watching pricing all monthI've only been visiting Evetech on occasion, and teasing myself at upgrading my GPU.

Fruity Posted November 22, 2018 Share bmw1za, have you considered Radeon as an alternative?https://www.evetech.co.za/msi-radeon-rx-570-armor-mk2-8gb-oc-edition/best-deal/3736.aspx RX 570 8gb going for R3899. I'm thinking I MIGHT go the Radeon route when it comes time to upgrade.

Allrounder Posted November 22, 2018 Share I had a killer pc back in varsity, worked every vacation to upgrade it. Can not remember the specs, but it was an AMD with radeon card. was a beast!! Fruity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amberdrake Posted November 22, 2018 Share Problem I have with AMD cards is they turn legacy at some point and AMD doesnt release new drivers so the newer games wont run on them even if they would still work (there are hacks to fix this). Nvidia has support way further back and cards tend to last bit longer in the scheme of things. Allrounder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Posted November 22, 2018 Share I had a killer pc back in varsity, worked every vacation to upgrade it. Can not remember the specs, but it was an AMD with radeon card. was a beast!! My first ever real graphics card was an Ati X1600XT, although I had an Intel CPU to go with it. I've read stories of compatibility issues with an Intel CPU and a Radeon card, yet I've heard from others that there shouldn't be a problem.
