i posted a new PC spec thread and req to stick to an AMD gpu but that's based on old biases.
i'll be sticking to 1080p gaming (single screen) for a while but just in case need it to have a HDMI port, the right DP connector for when/if i see a 4k TV i want and a dual link DVI for my old 30" 1600p Dell monitor.
for AMD anything ranging from a R9 380 to 390x would keep me going a while i'd imagine but as i know nothing about nvidia cards (haven't owned since a 7950gx2 eons ago) i'd like some advice pls on whether their price/performance is right for me?
i know both vendors do extras re: video encoding on their cards etc but afaik it's useless for me as i use HEVC for my encodes (x265) and need control of options/settings and not some invisible box with no options like intel offers with quicksync.
guess price wise my gpu max is around £300 but can stretch. will be paired with a 5820k and 32GB DDR4. rest of spec stulid recommended is here
thanks all.
