R9 380 4gb vs gtx 960 4gb

Cristo310 · Jan 9, 2016

So hey guys..idk what to do. I have to choose between gtx 960 4gb and r9 380 4gb. In my country the price is actually the same(it depends by where you will take it). My processor its i5 4460. What should I do guys?
I heard that in future, amd video card will have some problem with my processor,I don't know if its for real or not,but I really want to know your opinion. I searched for benchmarks,gameplays and actually r9 380 win 5fps in front of gtx 960 in most of the game. Maybe in future I m not gonna change the card and I ll make sli/crossfire.

R9 380 will be faster in raw performance including gaming and workstation job but it runs hotter, noisier, and may have driver problems unlike the GTX 960 which is really not the best-bang-for-the-money.

You choose.

The 380 does not run very hot. Around or under 70C at load with an OC, noise depends on manufacturer. Driver issues are a thing of the past now, and not to be a comparison point.
The 380 (this is a review for the 380x, but the 380 is in there) Is 11% faster than the 960: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/R9_380X_Strix/23.html
Get the 380.

Guys..im asking you about problems with amd graphics card and Intel processor

I do not think you will have problem with R9 380 and i5 4460, It is good deal and they will work nice in probably all games in 1080p. But if you can, take 380X. It is better for 9-10% than 380 and can better utilize these 4GB. It is true the Nvidia is better in software support and energy efficiency but if you do not need to skimp on PSU get R9 380/380X and you will get better performance now and in future. You probably want to see some benchmarks, then here is Witcher 3 gameplay on i5 4460 + R9 380 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RUM-kyA8MY and it has really decent FPS.

Intel + NVIDIA = good

It doesn't matter/

Brands mean absolutely nothing between processors and graphics cards.
Dont know where you heard that, but its wrong.
