Upgrade r9 390 nitro because is dead

[kilyan]

Hi need a new card capable at least of fullhd gaming with max settings and that will last some time.
Budget 500 euro max, for pure gaming at least 1920x1080 max settings 60fps dx12, i should not have any problem with latest games, 2k or 4k only with super resolution or dsr(don't have 2k or 4k monitor)
Overclock to get more fps, not for benchmark, so the card must have good components resistant to heat and voltages, and good cooling system.
No preferences if nvidia or amd

Well, with 500€ you can go either GTX 1080 o(€550) or Vega 56 (€520).

GTX 1070 ti launches in a couple of weeks and will certainly be around €450/€500 with nearly the perfs of a GTX 1080.

I think pricing is much the same in Italy than in France, so what I wrote above works for you.

If you don't plan on upgrading your CPU+Mobo+ram anytime soon, you could save quite some cash by going GTX 1070 or AMD RX 480/5808GB.

Your FX is a bottleneck@1080p for anything above the 1070.

above a 1060

The 4.5OC gives a little bit of headroom: I just went tocheck 3 techspots CPU GPU games benchmarks. It seems OP is good up to a 1070.

But I agree, if it were me, I'd go 1060/580

Cpu now is ocked to 4.8ghz because is cool. When is hot i lower to 4.5 for safety.
So can suggest me which custom should i get for each model: 1060-1070-rx 580? There are so many that i cannot choose

If you don't plan on upgrading CPU+Mobo soon, get a 1070. It will be good for a couple of years at least@1080p/60Hz.

which one? asus strix, gigabyte g1,, zotac amp,zotac amp extreme,,msi, pny, powercolor, etc...? There are lots, which is the best half way for performance/cooling/overclock

Go for the cheapest with aftermarket cooler.

My flavour of choice is EVGA, tremedous customer service! And in Europe, usually in the cheapest ones. This one:

Edit:
Disponibile in Italia ragazzo, per solo quatro cento diciasette euro!

Edit:

They all overclock the same, depending on how lucky you are on the piece of silicon: roll of a dice!

cool, i found a superclocked 2 version, what is the difference? http://www.qmaxtech.it/it/schede-vi...070-8gb-gddr5-scheda-video-4250812417800.html

hundred euro more!
It's not black, there are 9 extra sensors for temperature (totally useless), and that's it.

Go for the black edition.

Or if you want to pay the 500, get a 1080, but as stated before, your CPU, [email protected] will bottleneck. Not worth it IMO, unless you plan on a Ryzen or Coffeelake and monitor upgrade anytime soon.

I guess your monitor is 60 Hz, right?

So, in this case, you might want to grab a 1080... tough choice

FYI, with NVidia cards, you do not need CRU: you can increase the monitor frequency in the nvidia control panel.

I would get that like stated above they pretty much all oc the same . I have no problem playing any game with ultra settings @ 1080p even stock
