Hello,
how are you doing?
I need some advice on this matter.
what is the better upgrade from a 290 VaporX?
Is it a Sapphire Fury Nitro or a Gigabyte 980TI G1?
Price is not an issue as they both cost the same.
From looking ate reviews when the 980TI launched, it was almost twice as fast as a 290 at 1080p.
Is this still the case?
I read that AMD played some catch up with drivers.
Also, some say the Fury is better for the future because it has better performance in new APIs like DX12 and vulkan.
Is this the case and will it show this year and early 2018?
I am looking at one of these cards and not the 1070 or wait for veja because I'll sell the 290 now while it still worth something.
Selling the 290 and getting either the Ti or Fury translates in 80 euros out of my pocket.
To get a 1070 it is at least 180 euros out of my pocket.
If I wait for vega, the 290 will go down in value and the Vega cards will be twice as much as the fury or 980ti, so I think one of these two cards now is a good option.
The only question is which one?
Thanks.
Cheers!
