Hello everyone,
I've been planning to upgrade the GPU of my rig until Q2. As I have a Freesync capable monitor, I'd like to go AMD, but Nvidia wouldn't be completely out of question if it was massively better at price/performance.
I'm opting for 1070/Vega 56/1070 Ti. With the price development of the last months, it looks to me as if GPU prices will be rising further for several months to come, though that's just my thoughts.
Now I found an offer for a Vega 56 (best case, could use Freesync) for as "little" as 480€ including shipping. Should I go for it? Or should I bet on the mining bubble to pop in the near future? Would love to hear opinions for this.
Another option would be going dual Fury/Fury X, buying those used. I'm currently on a dual HD 7970 (aka R9 280X) setup and I'm happy with Crossfire mostly so it'd be an option. Problem is that Fury's aren't selling that low either, and I really don't want to pay more for 2 of these than for a single Vega 56...
Well, hoping for some thoughts and suggestions from you guys
