kubacs · Jul 16, 2018

Hello,

I want a new GPU with 8GB or 11GB and OC

I have been thinking to go with crossfire RX580's but ill think twice

Another option is crossfire r9 390x but as I said ill think twice

My Budget: $1200

My PC Specs

Intel Core i7 7700
Nvidia GTX 1080 8GB
16GB 2133MHz DDR4 RAM
240GB SSD
2TB SATA III HDD
600W 80 Plus Rated PSU

Thank,
A fast reply would be appreciated,
Kuba

wait one more month for the new graphics card releases.

Yeah prob worth holding on for new cards. I wouldnt consider Crossfire, doesnt work as well as a single more powerful card.

I'm really confused... you state that you have a GTX 1080... the only thing more powerful is either a 1080 Ti or a Titan. There is really no need to upgrade.

I am also totally confused by his request.

Mistake i noticed

I do not have a GTX 1080

I have a GTX 980

Well, the 980 is about equivalent to a 1070, so an upgrade still isn't terribly necessary. The more powerful single cards, which is the way I'd recommend going as SLI and crossfire are sparsely supported, are the 1070 Ti, 1080, 1080 Ti and Titan cards, as well as the AMD Vega 56 and 64.

Although, since your GPU is no slouch, I'd suggest waiting for the next generation cards. The 11 series should have a few more good cards that you could upgrade to. But, if you need to upgrade now, it should be 1070 Ti / Vega 56 or higher. Anything weaker wouldn't be too much of an upgrade. Like I said, avoid SLI and Crossfire as you'll end up paying way more for less performance in the majority of games.

980 is more like a 1060 6gb. 1070 is equivalent to 980 ti.
