Something old or something new?
EVGA 1070 FTW, because i needed to upgrade from my EVGA 660Ti and i was too cheap to get a 1080.
I have a 5870 1GB Ati and would like a nice new Vega/Volta to replace it!! I wonder if I am running the oldest card here?
I was given this card by a friend when he upgraded his GPU many years ago.
2600k Sandy bridge
16GB DDR3
250GB SSD
Win10 Pro
My rig is packing a 780Ti which is really starting to need replacing, especially at 3440x1440
Gigabyte GTX 980 Xtreme Gaming.
Upgrading if Volta is any good.
EVGA 980 FTW.
Went up from a 750Ti. Pretty happy with it.
ASUS ROG STRIX Radeon Rx 480 8GB OC Edition - plenty fast enough for my needs.
i7 4770 @ 3.4Ghz
16 GB DDR3-1600
240 GB SSD
3TB + 2 TB Hard drive
Zotac GTX 1070 AMP! EXTREME Edition, I did have a 960 but I was a dunce and bought the 2GB version without realising, so I got rid of it while it still held some value lol.
My son has an old Asus GTX560 in his rig that I built out of spare parts, that's probably going to get a AMD 580 or 480 thrown in there sometime this year, either of those should pair nice with his FX8350 for a cheap mid range gaming build.
Sapphire R9 380 Nitro 4Gb is sitting in mine and it is still managing nicely at 1080p
Pair of EVGA 1080 FTW
r7 260x is old buy still rocking! hope i can get an upgrade ^_^
Evga GTX 970 (factory OCed), bought when the prices dropped last year. Makes easy work of the RPG/MMORPG games I play, at 1440p.
R9 290X Vapor-X... itching to change it tbh. Its big, its noisy, its hot... but it gets the job done and AMD's driver improvements have continued to keep it relevant.
evga gtx 1070
my x2 is running an amd hd5450 and my i7 4790k is running a GTX 1060 6GB
EVGA 1080 SC, its a decent stopgap solution
Gigabyte GTX 670 OC . waiting for VEGA
i5-4690K (OC'ed to 4GHz)
12GB RAM
and finally a GTX 1060 (slightly OC'ed)
plays all the games i play at decent specs (BF4,BF1, GTA online, Farming Sim 2017 and just cause 3) at decent frame rates on my 1080p monitor, altough BF1 gets these random perf drops
6GB Palit GTX 1060 dual edition.
Ideal for what I need it for at the moment as I'm only running at 1920 x 1080
Once I go VR and higher resolution, that's when I'll look at replacing the 1060 card :)
You should be on a triple 4k Titan Xp setup mate, dont think I could resit buying all the shiny if I worked at Scan :)
I recently picked up a 980ti zotac extreme edition(destroys 1070s)
I have 2 water-cooled Maxwell Titan X's in my rig.
The wife has a water-cooled Pascal Titan X in her rig
I've got an MSI GTX 680 Lightning. I've not come across anything it won't run smoothly (and in great detail) at 1920x1080, so unless I happen upon a new monitor I'll continue using it for a couple more years hopefully. It's quiet as a mouse too, which isn't something I could say about previous cards.
Radeon 5850 - nothing more needed at moment
;)
Zotac 1070 - plays pretty much every game I've tried on high settings at 2560x1440.
780 Ti zotac OC flashed into the Amp! edition, runs at 1110Mhz on boost
My current PC is a card-free zone, it doesn't even have a mini slot for a wi-fi card which is a rarity.
The GPU is an HD2000.
nvidia Geforce 750Ti
Dual powercolor amd Radeon hd7770 sli
Sapphire HD 6950 2GiB.
Currently waiting for Vega.
2x 290x's, got them uber cheap when the 390x came out, Will only replace with a single affordable GPU which out performs them.
Gigabyte 980Ti G1 Gamming. Looking forward to Vega.
An MSI Lightning R9 290X. Sadly don't have much time for games nowadays but 1080p still flies on pretty much any new title.
r290 and just waiting for good news then vega or not just lets see what happens ..
I bought an RX 460 this year for my HTPC, but it's not there now because rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishty MSI supplies a low profile bracket that partially blocks the HDMI port. I'm currently waiting for a replacement bracket that probably also won't fit. For now I'm using the G4560's integrated graphics, and they're doing a decent job for my need.
GTX 970 Strix
Upgraded from 295x2 >> 1080 Ti Seahawk X. Nvidia really do need to upgrade their win98 control panel
Sapphire Radeon R9 270X 4GB
I'm running single GeForce GTX Titan X cards (Maxwell) in each of my PCs.
I have two 480s in crossfire and a 580 spare.
Aorus 1080Ti.
And don't worry, if they haven't improved the old Vega they were bragging about, it's rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishty.
An R9 270. At the time, I got it to replace my 1GB 4870.
I don't really see the need to replace this any time soon, but it's possible that I could be tempted enough to do so anyway at some point in the future.
980 Ti
Fury X. Still very happy with it at 2560x1440.
2x R9 390. Also waiting for Vega. Hope they will have enough in stock so I can buy two of them.
Main PC: Asus STRIX GTX970 4GB, Media PC: Sapphire HD 5770 512MB, Spare PC: Gigabyte GV-R779OC-1GB.
Still on my EVGA GTX 970 ACX SC. It's still getting the job done at 1920x1200.
9600GT. I'll upgrade when I finish IGI 2
I'm still rocking an AMD sapphire 7950 Vapor-X, but hoping to upgrade to a Vega card when they come out.
GTX 1080ti thanks to my sold kidney.
The last graphics card I owed was a Sapphire Radeon 7850. My current desktop does not have a discreet GPU. I instead got a gaming capable laptop that has a GTX 970M.
Asus GTX 1070 Dual FAN OC
Xfx r9 390
R9 290 currently, waiting to see "if" Vega is any good before upgrading.
Currently a GTX 970 from ASUS, which I got cheap back in 2015 (Black Friday). It kind of feels over the hill already, though.
Sapphire R9 290 Toxic edition. i forgot if its a X or non-x.
Seems to do the job just fine for my 1080p gaming setup.
sadly the 290 isnt part of the regular graphicscard review charts any more, and i dont know what the rebrand is called. but i dont really have much reason to upgrade atm anyway.
6GB Gainward GTX 980 Ti PHOENIX GS, bought from SCAN for £479.98 in Jan 2016. Fantastic card with SCAN having the best price. How times have changed with top end graphic pricing since then.
Msi r9 380 oc
I have an ATI HD7770 with a Core i7 3770K. I need to upgrade :-(
Technically an R9 390 8GB
But seeing as i\'m far too nice to my little brother, he\'s borrowing it for a few weeks so i have my old trusty 6950 2GB card back for now.
XFX R9 Fury
Custom 4k laptop with a GTX 1070. I very nearly went with a 1080 (this was before the Ti was an option and therefore before the price drop), but it didn't seem worth the outlay for a card that wouldn't quite handle 4k. I figured I'd use 1080p res for now, or 1440p through the second monitor, and maybe get one of those Thunderbolt graphics card enclosures in the years to come.
Although I didn't plan to be gaming in 4k, even the 1070 performs much better than I expected and often manages 60fps+. I guess it helps that I can easily turn off AA on such a small screen.
Posedion 980Ti running on water, @1500/8200
not much point to change at the moment :( :)
Intel HD Graphics 4600.
Upgrading when RX 480 or RX 580 is $250 and not $450 in my country.
a lowly Nvidia 740 GT. as I'm not a gamer it does the job for me.
MSI GTX 970 even with an aftermarket backplate it sags like nothing on earth. Nice card otherwise.
Inno3d GTX1070 iChill Air Boss X3. Cracking card and boosts to 2012mhz out of the box. I got it with the intention of upgrading my monitor to a 2560x1440 Gsync screen and then the prices went through the roof so I can no longer justify the expense.
EVGA 980Ti ACX Superclocked.....It's still doing well, but Vega/Volta may be enough to tempt me to upgrade if the prices aren't too ridiculous.
4GB 290x watercooled. Still plays everything at 1440p but am still tempted to upgrade to vega depending what it brings to the table and the price and when the waterblocks become available for it.
GTX 1060 6GB. Keeping this for 2-3 years (probably 3). Next PC upgrade will be CPU, RAM & motherboard.
Rog 1080 Strix gaming version, not using the RGB as i can't see inside the case where it sits but i find the semi-passive option is a plus. Nice cool card even when i'm hammering it with 4K. And when i play Hearthstone @ 4K it stays in passive mode :D
Another EVGA 1070 FTW. Seemed a decent buy at the time and could not justify spending more.
Ooooh, very close, but ...
We have a winner ;)
I actually have a HD 3450 and an 8400GS kicking around somewhere, but neither is currently in a PC. The only machine I own that has discrete graphics right now is sporting a GeForce GTX 750 - my other machines are all running AMD IGPs (except my Bay Trail tablet, that is ;) ).
I'm in desperate need of an upgrade but i will for Vega/Volta because it's not worth for me to waste my money on rx 580/gtx 1060 when both Vega and Volta are so close .

Not a powerful card by any means, but fine for World of Tanks. Also completely passive, which along with my passive PSU makes for a very quiet system indeed
Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 980 Ti. Currently away on an RMA, worked great until it didn't.

GTX 1060 6GB, I plan on keeping this as much as I can, I think its going to be good enough for the next two years, my next upgrade plan is Ryzen 1600 though, I just saw Intel's prices for their new processors and their 6 core is so much more expensive than the 1600, and while it might be in single core faster than the 1600, overall it should be about equal in performance, but you have to pay a 30% premium just because its Intel name.
So I'm looking at R5 1600 as my next build, though going to wait until Intel releases their stuff to see if prices go down across the board, though from the looks of it Intel will price same core processors 20 to 30% higher than the equivalent AMD offerings, so I doubt we'll see lower prices for the Ryzen ones, especially since the 1600 is already insane value for a 6 core processor.
1060 3GB Adequate for now and for a while; still on Windows 7 so it was a better option than the AMD cards.
Sapphire RX 480 Nitro+ 8GB
Ultrawide 3440x1440 gaming on Ultra settings. No problem.
EVGA 1070 FTW. That was as much as I'm prepared to spend on a graphics card - just can't justify the cost of a 1080 or Titan, let alone two of them.
ASUS STRIX 980 OC. Sitting in a Node 304 case, hooked up to a 65inch Sony telly.
Sapphire R9 Fury @1078Mhz / 516MHz, keeps the room warm in winter, makes me want to go outside in summer, and does just fine at 1440p 60 FPS. Would only upgrade when AMD releases something 1.8-2.5x better at the price I bought this for. Otherwise until it dies.
Running a 390x atm hoping to switch entire system sometime this year
Radeon 5850 (XFX) bought for noise/heat (both very good back then...LOL). I'll buy for pretty much the same reasons this time (as far as picking a model). I've been waiting far to long to replace it though. Having said that, I've been waiting on a better monitor for the most part (gsync or freesync with 16:10 27in+). Odd that the monitor will probably pick my vid card this go around. Then again, I live with the monitor usually 2x or more time than the vid card so I guess it really kind of makes sense (and they're usually north of $650, again usually quite a bit higher than the vid card).
Keeping on strong with my 1080, still taking everything thrown at it.
