is this an Upgrade

[catcher]

I have Sapphire 4gb -R9-290X-Vapor-X-Tri-X-GDDR5.Want to get Amd rx480 8gb.
Cards only used for fps( bo3)
Would it be good purchase?

No. At best its the same, probably a little worse.

Black ops 3 fps in the link below.

Link shows 4 fps increase vs stock 290x, he has a nice 290x so will almost defiantly loose FPS.

3,4 or 5 fps I would not call that an upgrade? Would he not feel 20-40fps a upgrade??

My mistake, misread the op's card as a standard 290.

There are no 8gb cards that support freesync that are real upgrades for you.
