Hi, i'm just wondering which GPU to get for these games:
Witcher 2,
Witcher 3,
Fully modded skyrim (really HD texture mods, ENBs etc etc),
AC4 (Even though I heard it was very badly optimized),
and other games around those titles such as Crysis 3..
Disclaimer: I know we aren't mind readers but on assumption which do you think will play it better/last longer.
My choices are the r9 290 MSI for around 430$ OR the MSI GTX 780 for around $480-490
The thing I am most concerned about is:
I have a 600W EVGA 80+ Bronze PSU, my cable management is total shithouse, and I only have one fan (However with the money I save I can probably get 1-2 fans in the case). I know not a lot of games use PhysX and those who do can use my CPU for that I hear.
All-in-all I want something that will last for around 2-3 years time on high-ultra quality settings on 1080p.
The specs would show the r9 290 is the better buy but I always hear conflicting results.
PS: Please no fanboys, I want unbiased opinions on which would be the better buy.. Thank you!
