GPU update on my PC

Fabrice Bouvart
Hi all,

I have just bought C1
I currenty have the following config
AMD 8320 (8 cores)
16 GB of DDR3
5TB of HDD
Radeon HD7770 1GB
2 display (23" HD & 24" HD)

I am thinking about several options :
- Geforce GTX 1050 2GB
- AMD Rx560 2GB

any advice on how to choose my card ?

thanks in advance

Fabrice

    AMD seems to support OpenCL better than Nvidia.
    Don't go cheap on the GPU, this will return it's value pretty soon since C1 relies on it.
    I've got a R9 290X, which is a few years older and is quite heavy in Watts but it's hard to beat, even by the newer generations. You could consider this also, maybe an occasion?

    my budget is around 120€

    based on that I can think of any solution including used graphic card

    There are several websites that can compare GPU specs/hypothetical performance.

    For example:
    http://gpuboss.com/gpus/Radeon-R9-290X- ... e-GTX-1050

    You might pick a time, see what's available in the area compare those GPU's and press "Go".

    Good luck! 😊

    RX560 is within your budget, approx 60% faster than the 7770
