What Graphic Card Should I get ?????

[RealNeil]

and by the way you may want to look at my system specs for the gpu installed.

I had four Sapphire R9-290X cards for years. They were dependable and fast for their day.

Yup its why I got a 290, thinking of grabbing 2 290X VaporX 8GBs in 2021.

Four of them? My god, there's your reason for global warming!

If his were vaporXs, no not really.

 

[HenrySomeone]

Yeah i know, those were good cards, but technically speaking if anything, they consumed even more power / produced even more heat than reference ones, because there was no thermal throttling due to them being better at dissipating the heat.

Two computers with two cards in crossfire.

Easy guys. Lets just help this fella find a good GPU! We can all work together on a solution here.

OP whats your location? Have you been checking on eBay for local listings?

Algeria
eBay charging price to algeria is a bit expensive

he did state that vega is too expensive where he lives
amd and nvidia prices vary from region to region,people need to understand that

I mean the op already narrowed his choice to two nvidia cards,but I guess that hurt eidairman so much he had to let go of his frustration on me.

Yea Here theres still a massive old stock of amds card(Q1 2018) for example rx570 4gb is 225$ and rx 580 8gb is 260$ vega 64 is 650$

What is your budget (what sort of money do think you can spend) this helps us guys help you with what sort of deal you can get for your budget, Also just look at a few reviews on this website where you have posted this question then make your own mind up based on what people are suggesting according to what you want to spend....

No need to afraid of cooling on RTX2060 Turbo!

This is review from ASUS RTX2070 Turbo. That's hotter card.

Cooling & Noise Levels
The card tops out at roughly 75 Degrees C while gaming. So that's 'okay', the acoustics, however, are considerably audible at 44 DBa under full gaming load.

For RTX2080 and RTX2080Ti you should worry.
For RTX2060 and RTX2070 Turbo not.

If someone consider to buy RTX2060 Turbo and buy something else he is not normal person, except if we talk about:

GTX1080 GTX1080Ti RTX2070 RTX2080 RTX2080Ti Radeon VII RX Vega 64 AIO.
or some other version of RTX2060 as EVGA RTX2060 SC Ultra, XC Ultra,...

RTX2060 is not hot card.
EVGA make small card with single fan.
Look this card, you think someone would install this on some hot chip.

On some places ASUS RTX2060 Dual is only 10-20$ more than RTX2060 Turbo.
You will make mistake if you buy something else. RTX2060 is newest series of GeForce and have good performance for gaming.

you keep on advocating this blower card as if you couldn't comprehend that any blower card is loud.

2060 ain't that different from 2070,same core,just 10% slower.44db is hella loud.but what is important is the noise of a blower card is completely different form an aib card. you know what a blower card sounds like at 44db ? no,cause you keep defending a pointless buy.

 

[Vlada011]

This card cost 20$ more than ASUS RTX2060 Turbo.
That's ASUS Dual.
RTX2060 power consumption is around 160W.
GTX1070Ti is around 180W.

Hello i have a trouble choosing my next graphic card. here in my country prices are a bit crazy so theres two cards in my mind want to get one of them
- Gtx 1070ti Msi gaming price 389.5$ new
Or the cheapest Rtx 2060 Asus turbo (blower style) 399.5$ new
or should i wait for new amds graphic cards navi im not in rush btw i can wait.
sorry for my english

Check out this review. I believe the 2060 would be the better choice as it does edge out the 1070 Ti ever so slightly, and it uses newer tech. But an argument can be made for the 1070 Ti as well.

Just say no to blowers

1. When asking this question always list:

a) monitor resolution
b) Do you use MSI Afterburner to OC the card ?
c) Complete system specs including PSU is helpful

2. Assuming you are at 1080p and are not overclocking, relative performance (lowest to highest) is:

580 = 70%
1060= 71%
MSI Gaming 1660 Ti = 100% (Granted this is an AIB, all others are reference)
Vega 56 = 101%
1070 Ti = 109%
Vega 64 = 112%
2060 = 113%
1080 = 115%
2070 = 132%
Radeon Vii = 134%

https://tpucdn.com/reviews/MSI/GeFo...g_X/images/relative-performance_1920-1080.png

3. If you overclock the card, and using the card series you listed in OP, these numbers are based upon OC results obtained in TPU testing relative to the 1660 Ti. All data posted here is from reviews on this site ... to verify same, click on "Reviews"Tab

No clue about pricing in your area ... I'd start at the bottom and get the pricing for that card and move up till ya find something that works

MSI 580 Mech = 70% x 66.7 / 59.2 = 78.9 %
MSI Armor 1060= 71% x 102.1 / 85.9 = 85.2%
Vega 56 = 101% x (no overclock obtained) = 101.0%
MSI Gaming 1660 Ti = 1101% x 99,0 / 99.3 = 109.6 %
Vega 64 = 112% x (no overclock obtained) = 112.0%
MSI Gaming 1070 Ti = 109% x 147.9 / 135 = 119.4 %
MSI Gaming Z 2060 = 113% x 121.1 / 107.9 = 126.8%
MSI Gaming 1080 = 115% x 166.4 / 142.6 = 119.4 % = 134.2%
Radeon VII = 134% x 131 / 121,1 = 145.0
MSI Gaming 2070 = 132% x 144.5 / 128.4 = 148.7 %

Now subsequent tests on the Vega have shown OCs of about 4 - 5% but not enough to move them past the cards listed above them.

4. You didn't say if secondary features (power requirements, heat and noise) are important but, if it's not already obvious, you should check the data from reviews out.

5. No water block is required for ANY nVidia AIB card since 500 series other than the original EVGA 1xxx SC series. Just look at TPU testing and try and find a single on that throttles.

6. Any post that says "Don't listen to anyone else" should be ignored .... I would add, don't listen to me ... look at the data and make up your own mind.

7. There is no blower style cooler card that competes in performance, noise or GPU temps with AIB non-blower cards

For me it was RX 480 vs 2060 at 1440P (use to be 1080P) plus the whole card meaning the beefy over sized heatsink, and lower power consumption (less heat in the case to vent.)
https://www.gpucheck.com/en-usd/com...hz-vs-intel-core-i7-8700k-3-70ghz/ultra/ultra

How'd you even get to cooling, heat etc... the 2060 is 75% faster using reference cards

I had four Sapphire R9-290X cards for years. They were dependable and fast for their day.

Compared to what ? Not the 780 Ti at stock ... not the 780 when both cards were overclocked.

I was shocked when even Linus reported this in his unboxing review.

The best argument for comparison between a 2060 and a 1070Ti is that eventually, you may want to increase your performance a little bit. With the 1070Ti you can buy another one of them and run SLI. You can't do that with the 2060, or the 2070.

Compared to what ? Not the 780 Ti at stock ... not the 780 when both cards were overclocked.

My RX-290X cards were running in Crossfire. They maxed all of my games out without any problems and as they were all triple-fan cards, they were pretty quiet too.

Is fan noise even a concern If I am gaming with headphones?
