Upgrade to a GTX Titan X (Pascal) or GTX 1080 (Aftermarket)

...I'm a bit tired of people insisting that x card is "too powerful" for 1080p gaming. I for one have a 1070 and use DSR whenever possible. The reason is that it works great for, among other things, temporal aliasing. The image produced, while 1080p, is just vastly and obviously superior to a...

[Rumor (Various)] AMD R7/9 3xx / Fiji / Fury

Indeed, this might be the first card that can get us a consistent 60fps in this year's AAA titles at 4k with high settings. I'm optimistic on that front, but they really need to up their pr and payola game.

[WCCF] AMD Radeon R9 390X Pictured

Maybe it will be a single gpu card that can comfortably do 4k with high/ultra settings.

Titan X

If you are starting fresh or upgrading, I would say definitely not. If you are upgrading, at the very least if you wait for amd's next offerings, you can get hbm technology. if you just a bit longer, you can get hbm + die shrink technologies. If you are starting fresh, just get something mid to...

[Rumor]GTX 980Ti to launch somewhere between May 16-26th

On the one hand, I'm always excited when a new higher-end card comes out, if only to see technological evolution at work. But at this point, I feel like someone on a budget who has a halfway decent card (like myself) is really looking forward most to the advances to be seen with the combination...

[BitsAndChips]390X ready for launch - AMD ironing out drivers - Computex launch

per usual, I agree with much of what Russian has to say. Amd's dilemma is that it's going to be hard to price the 390/x competitively with the 970/80, and anything in the 500+ USD zone will not really be accessible to the mainstream. Maybe gains to the lower chips in the 300 line can make up for...

[BitsAndChips]390X ready for launch - AMD ironing out drivers - Computex launch

One has to remember that most people building a pc probably fall somewhere in the middle: they're not knee deep into every spec tease or rumor, but they know enough about the market to have a decent grasp of what's going on. While it may not have been a good idea to release info on the entire...

[BitsAndChips]390X ready for launch - AMD ironing out drivers - Computex launch

I was saying that those wanting to play such 'summer blockbusters' on high/ultra at 60+ fps would be looking hard at the 970, not the titan, especially if they were building new or upgrading. and if the 390/x were dropping by the end of may in a reachable price range, I think many would jump on...

[BitsAndChips]390X ready for launch - AMD ironing out drivers - Computex launch

While I basically agree with you, the problem AMD has is that, in those 3 (more realistically 3-5) months, we've got 2 huge titles coming in Batman and Witcher 3 (likely the 2 biggest of the year). One of these is being offered as a latter day pack-in for the 900 series. So even those who would...

[WCCFT]Samsung may aquire AMD

This. Not only does AMD have good multiplatform and multibrand penetration already, but they have proven capable of impressive creativity, performance, and innovation. I think a SS acquisition could easily benefit both parties for a long time to come.

Does Directx12 really warrant a whole new card?

Pretty much this. I would actually be pleasantly surprised if the majority of aaa titles implemented dx12 by the close of next year.
