• Competitor rules

    Please remember that any mention of competitors, hinting at competitors or offering to provide details of competitors will result in an account suspension. The full rules can be found under the 'Terms and Rules' link in the bottom right corner of your screen. Just don't mention competitors in any way, shape or form and you'll be OK.

Buying a GPU now

what games do you actually play on what type of monitor? My R9 270 will happily do 60fps or over on older games and newer but less demanding games so you may not need a 290 or a 970.
