hey everyone. the question is clear. is that good enough? is there any better card around with a better price to start the new gen with it? or it's still too soon to build a pc for the new gen and it's possible to find better cards in the near future?
also i want to know the best CPU (price/quality) for this card. i don't want an ultra expensive cpu. i just want something nice with a good price to feed my GPU to maximize output for next 3-4 years :)
thanx in advance ,,,
the 290x runs extremely hot and loud. if you game with one, for about 3-4 hours, it ends up downclocking itself to as low as 600mhz (same speed as an HD 7970) because it's max operating temperature is a scorching 94c. so don't waste your time or money on it.
gtx 770 4g is the best bang for the buck.
the gtx titan is the most future proof because it's very fast and has 6gb vram, but it is too expensive.
the gtx 780 ti (6gb vram) will be the best option, even though it will be expensive as well.
don't waste you money on any video card that has less than 4 gb of vram. people will complain and say "you don't need that much vram." but don't listen to them, the next gen games of 2014-2015, and onward, will start crushing 2-3gb video cards soon, even at 1080p.
intel i7 4770k or i7 3930k, i7 4930k will last for years. the amd fx 8350 is "ok"
go with a motherboard that will support 2133mhz ram.
