i need some advice on a new gpu im looking for the best and highest tier grapics card of older generation that fits best with my cpu's i dont need a brand new top of the line while it gets bottle necked by my cpu
so what one?
im using 2 W5580 xeons at 3,20ghz
i do prefer amd becus im using amd for ages now
anny sugestions are welcom and i sheck if they are avaible on ebay for a decent price

i use cad programs like Fusion 360, 3ds max 2016, i do rendering mainly with cpu
i also do gaming but just at 1080p
 
AMD doesn't really have top tier graphic cards for some time now....
You need to wait for consumer Vega or you could pick a RX480/RX580.

For gaming at 1080p a RX480/580 should be good.

For your cad and rendering you might be better of buying an Nvidia card.
 
doest vega get bottleneked by my xeons??

Well you asked for top tier...

But as I said for your rendering purposes I think you are better of with an Nvidia card.

If it has to be AMD, buy a RX480/580 , they are good cards for 1080p gaming and I think it'll work just fine with your CPU's.
 
yea top tier that fits best with my xeons even an older generation top tier so they both work in sync..
