Which GPU CS.net?

[GiT]

Barely game, but it has to be able to run CS:Go if needed... Loads of PhotoShop / Video Editing...

Replacing a HD7950 (dying)

NVidia or AMD ATI?

GTX1070 or RX580?

£400-450 to spend odd. GO!

What resolution are we talking, 1080p or 1440p? I’m assuming not 4K.

My 1070 flys along in every game I’ve tried at 1080p.

1080 - 3 monitors (Missed that out - sorry)

Does the trick - but any better out there for similar / more coin?

I would say a 1070 is enough, but if you don’t mind going second hand then you could pick up a 1080 for £450ish.

Prices are ridiculous right now though.

Dictated by the miners I guess? I don't need one as powerful as a 1080, or mining strength.

That'll do the stuff I guess?

Mining has killed the gpu market.

That would do a much better job than your 7950.

The HD7950 on eBay still flogs for £75+ too! Unreal!

 

[Daz...]

Nice bit of money back on the new one :up:

 

[Cookie]

1070 probably best for the money you have

Probably not for a dying one though.

They are not to know - It's a weird one.

Yep - my 1080 is currently £100 more than what I paid for it on release day.

Just had a look and my 1070 is the same, most places it’s £150 more. Crazy.
