Graphics Cards

Look what arrived!

It has arrived! I’m too tired to put it on right now, but if things go well I might see some more HBM graphic goodness during my weekend. I can even color it to match my keyboard and mouse! I’m going to have bling out the arse. :happy:

I may also start collecting parts to get my Ryzen setup started. All I really need is a new motherboard, processor, and RAM to go that route. Maybe within three months I can get started? :happy:

Upgrades!

by

By the powers that be I have a new graphics card coming in the mail. I’ve managed to score a RX Vega64 to surpass my current R9 Fury. It was a toss up for me to either completely switch to Ryzen or upgrade graphics. For now I can still get by on my Xeon, and throughout the year I’ll just scout for parts individually as they get cheaper. I have a goal to completely go pure AMD on my desktop by next year. I’ve read and seen enough about Ryzen processors, with threadripper continuing to make me drool.

I wonder how many Bungholio Marks I’ll be able to score? :v:

Hell hath no fury like I do

I’m quite impressed with it so far. I’ve mostly been doing some in game benchmarks and gameplay with it. There is quite a difference between the Fury and my old R9 290. I did some Skyrim test recordings earlier, recording was good before but now it’s even better. I still have plenty of tweaking and refining to do, but it is my weekend after all. Time to go nuts. 😛
