Occulus · Jan 15, 2017

hi there i want to upgrade my R9 280x asus and i have a budget of 150-200 euros.i read about the 1050 ti and the rx 470 but i dont know much so i need your help.
the games i play are all blizzards games most WoW and Overwatch,battlefield 1 and Doom.i just want to play them on high maybe ultra but i dont care much.propose me a gpu please.
thank you in advance

Neither one one of those cards will allow high/ultra settings on newer games. However out of the two, the RX 470 is more powerful than the 1050 Ti. So if you can get it, then go for it. If you can save up some more, you may want to consider the RX 480 or GTX 1060 as those cards will provide high/ultra settings.

The 1050ti isn't really an upgrade for the 280X. Really about a downgrade due to its just a bit faster than the 960 and 280. The rx470 tho is more a step up being about on par with a GTX970 or R9 390.

Really you need to go 480 or 1060 at least for a worthwhile upgrade mate.
The 470 is weaker than the old gtx 970.
Tantamount to what a good card the 280x always was ,the 470 would be an upgrade but not a 200 euro one.

ok thank you all for the quick respond between RX 480 and 1060 3gb which one for the games i play?

Occulus :

Honestly, either one will work fine. However, if you can get the 6GB of the 1060, I would go with that. The RX 480 8GB is good too, but that's just me.

Occulus :

The rx480 4GB is pretty good with little performance lost from the 8GB verison. It can be had around the 200 euro mark.

Doom & bf 1 the 480 wins , blizzard games favour nvidia more.

I'd 100% take the xfx rs 480 over the zotac mini 1060 irregardless - its a far better quality card

a friend of mine told me to get if i can a R9 290x for those games that i play and with my cpu fx 8350 with the 1100w psu i will be more than ok for 1080p on ultra.whats your opinion and sorry to bother you so much.
thank you in advance

Occulus :

480 is a bit stronger & uses half the power ,480 woudl be my choice personally unless you can get a 290x very cheap.

Occulus · Jan 15, 2017

i can find the r9 290x around 180-200 euros so i think from your words that i can squezze some more and get a rx 480.
xfx is better than saphire for example?i dont know what made is better.
