GTX 960 vs R9 380
-
- If you're going to respond to Rules about his query, that's not the way to do it.
_"I would go for the _____ because ______, _______, _______ and _______. Plus it has ______ and that affects ______."
- If you want to dismiss me as ignorant (which is not difficult by the way), demonstrate that you have a grasp of the subject and also want to come across as a gentleman, that's not the way to do it.
" Is the 380 less powerful? At most the 960 and it's on par, however the 960 supports more OC and consumes much less, which makes it a better option.
I don't know what your sources are, but maybe you should check the data before you write.
Best regards."- If you want to derail the thread, you're doing a great job.

No, I'm not here to cause problems. It's just that I had just read that review from Techspot and it seemed strange to me what you were saying, there are more reviews that corroborate what Techspot says, but well, everyone says what they want.
"Finally, we have the R9 380 at $200, a price point AMD has previously smothered with products. For the same price as the R9 285, the R9 380 is on average 8% faster and 6% slower than the R9 280X while matching the GTX 960. Picking between the R9 380 and GTX 960 will come down to personal preference, and again the Nvidia card has an edge in power consumption, cooling and overclocking."
Answering Rules' question, I would get the GTX 960, I don't think the 3% or 5% in favor of or against the R380 justifies its purchase and being a shameless rebrand of the R200, I don't think it will receive significant performance improvements in future drivers.

Come on guys!! This is a forum to help us
I edit, in the end I got excited and went for a GTX970, this one: http://www.pccomponentes.com/gigabyte_geforce_gtx_970_windforce_3x_oc_4gb_ddr5.html

If you are aware of the problem with its memory, then come on champ:
;DYes, I had heard something, but well, my monitor is 1080p, I doubt I will use more than 3.5GB lol ;D
Thanks for the warning!!

If you are aware of the problem with its memory, then there's nothing left to do champion: Time to play!
;DWow, they have just lowered the price of the Asus 290 OC by a few euros… and with what you're telling me, I don't know what to do if the 970 or the 290 OC is Asus Radeon R9 290 DirectCU II OC 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card
Which one would you choose?
Best regards!

Between R290 and GTX 970? Without a doubt the GTX 970 is a better product… That one can be said to be much superior to the other option.

If you're up to date with the problem with its memory, then go ahead, champion:
/>;DI can't believe it... does this come from the same person who said this a few comments back?:

You can't be that cynical. First complaining because they make a rebuttal showing that what he says isn't true, and then after complaining because it seems to bother him that he's being ridiculed (which isn't true, here no one has called him a "champion" or anything like that, although it would be better not to drop bombs like the R9 380 is much faster than the GTX 960 and he'd see that no one would reply pointing out that huge mistake), he goes on with the thread but dropping jokes that are just as bad as the ones he's complaining about.
By the way, what problem do you say the GTX 960 have with their memory? Enlighten me (until this comment we're not talking about the GTX 970, but about the GTX 960 and the 380, you know, since you care so much about the question and the topic asked by Rules, STICK TO IT).
By the way, even if it hurts his very soul, the GTX 970 even with the memory issue as he tries to push (not the GTX 960), it turns out to be a bullet with plenty of memory. Someone who tests and knows well the things we're talking about here. :ugly:

Personally, I wouldn't even take a barrel of wine for that price for an R9 290, a card that is clearly slower than the GTX 970, with worse power consumption and less prepared for future functions, not to mention the OC potential which with the GTX 970 is wide and very easy to exploit without drawbacks like monstrous increases in power consumption, etc., besides the fact that Asus seems to have had problems specifically with that model in the cooling system and its assembly. I would prefer it to a Sapphire, but from the forums it seems there are complaints with this model.
If I'm only going to save 40€ compared to a GTX 970, the option is…. the GTX 970. Oh yes, even being 3.5 GB + 0.5 GB. If the Fury can use 4 GB in the style of the GTX 970 (as if they were 3.5 GB), it will be more justified in graphics cards with less power, right, right?:troll:
A 290 that is not close to 250€ nowadays, shouldn't be an option.
PD: Even with the Windforce 3x as an option, which is a very good card within the "entry-level" GTX 970. A colleague of mine has one and enjoys it a lot.

;DMemory problems…?:facepalm: even at 1440p with options to spare are not a major problem, so if you haven't tried it, you'd better keep quiet
The 970 today is the best graphics card on the market in terms of quality, price, performance. Want more proof of that? A post I created in which I challenged any user with a 290/290x, even water-cooled ones, to beat one of my 970s (specifically the laziest of the two I had and mine was air-cooled). Do you know the result? No one from that forum, to date, has been able to surpass any of my results.
