Which generation is your Graphics Card?

[amd64skater]

XFX Speedster MERC 319 RX 6750 XT so happy with this card. Very good on 1440 and 1080 gaming. Replaced RX 560 4G.

Red Devil 6950XT. Runs pretty hot, I made the curve a straight ramp but she does howl a bit.I run 2K Noctua Industrials so I’m not really big in silence except at idle, which it is. But I just use my PC for gaming and I play in 5.1 it’s pretty easy to tune out the noise but for me it’s always thermals>noise

7900XT upgraded from a 6800XT and do not miss it one bit!!!

Thermals better? I’m really fight to keep my 6950XT under control at stock. It won’t take much of an UV either. Will game all day long at 1175. But will fail a Timespy run unless I run 1190 which might as well just be stock…

I have Asus GTX 1070 Ti Strix in a brand new system with 7800X3D. I am eyeing RX 6800 XT or 7800 XT but not with these prices... Maybe a second hand RX 6800 XT

Thermals are about the same but clock speeds are much higher and VRAM usage is higher. I have mine on a block but even when it was on a shroud it did not go past 65 for the chip and 80+ on Memory.

Still rocking a RX 560 that I bought, if I remember correctly, a few months after Vega dropped. I have upgraded the rest of my computer last October, and was considering getting a 4070 or RX 7700, but with the prices nVidia is practicing and AMD just forgetting to launch that card entirely, I might wait a little more to get a new GPU, or until the 560 dies out.

4070 Ti, upgraded from a 1070.

 

[Anarchy0110]

2060 here - and the amount of GeForce 2000 votes really surprises me.

 

[kapone32]

We are over 6000 votes and the percentages are maintained for each series. I must commend TPU for doing this to break the narrative that Team Green is at 91% market share,

I mean, I also doubt that narrative (what would AMD's incentive to continue on the market if that were true), but 6 thousand people is hardly representative, even with PC gaming becoming more and more niche.

I am not establishing the raw numbers but the fact that the percentages have not changed since the vote has tripled in the last few days. If nothing else that is an indication of the greater marker. There is a Youtuber called Robeytech (some affiliation with Newegg) and he stated that in the first Quarter AMD outsold Nvidia, I can believe that as I go the Computer store at least once a week and have seen way more AMD cards waiting for pickup than Nvidia. In terms of AMd's dedication to Gaming how can you doubt them when AMD have released an APU that runs at 28 Watts to compete with the 2050 and 1650TI. Then think about when that APU comes with a 65 Watt TDP on desktop what the performance will be like and it will support faster DDR5 speeds than 6000. I want a handleld but I also want those chips to make $400 PCs that will revolutionize the budget market.

With RX 7600 and RTX 4060 coming soon, we're wondering, what GPU do you currently use?

I am already in with my RX 7900 XT for this generation,
See you all in 3 years

 

[foo3]

running an rx 6600, use it for mid range 1080p gaming, works great, got it 250 cad lightly used with warranty and plastic peels still on.

4070 Ti, upgraded from a 1070.

How much cooler is it?

As for the poll Maxwell generation.

 

[playerlorenzo]

running a rx 6600 with my oc of 2745 mhz and undervolt of 1100 mv, so far so great and quiet

Why the "Frankenstein" mod? Where the stock fans too loud?

 

[AhmadMZ99]

RTX 3060, for me i called "choice of life" i bought since early 2022 during crisis of graphics card prices and crypto, i was going to bought RTX 2060 but i found 3060 with nominal difference for the price

 

[olymind1]

Rx6700 10gb here, was on sale and cheaper than any 6600xt, 6650xt, 3060 and 3060ti i could find at that time, works well on pcie 3.0 board too.

We are far from needing the full extent of PCIe v4.0 at 16 lane, so you should not feel any downside of having "only" PCIe v3.0
I run my RX7900 XT on PCIe v4.0 8× only, because I use extra card on the second PCIe slot, and I don't see drawback on graphics performance.
maybe could be measure with benchmarks, if I was care, but it should be within ~1% anyway.

Yes, as they can't go below 1000 RPM. It's either fan stop or 1000 RPM when they kick in, was very annoying.

With the 3 Noctua fans i let it idle at 200 RPM and they never have to spin beyond 600 RPM to keep temps in check.

Capped 60 FPS: ±39C @ 500 RPM
Capped 120 FPS: ±52C @ 700 RPM
Uncapped: ±63C @ 750 RPM

I'm not, also the 6700 is x16 pcie lanes so in pcie3.0 board it doesn't have as drawback as a x8 6600XT would, also has more vram, more memory bandwidth, more infinity cache, more shader processor, more TMUs than the RX 6600XT/6650XT, and because it was cheaper than them, it was a no brainer card for me.

 

[TheinsanegamerN]

6800xt in the sig. replaced twin failing vega 64s. Will be keeping this for another 4-5 years at least. I look forward to replacing it with whatever replaced radeon's RX naming scheme.

I mean, I also doubt that narrative (what would AMD's incentive to continue on the market if that were true), but 6 thousand people is hardly representative, even with PC gaming becoming more and more niche.

MORE niche? When steam is constantly breaking its own user records and PC sales are outpacing console sales for companies like activision, I have to wonder WTF are you on about?

With RX 7600 and RTX 4060 coming soon, we're wondering, what GPU do you currently use?

ASUS TUF RTX 4090 24 GB OC, upper floor workstation-gaming PC-01.
Gigabyte RTX 4080 16 GB Gaming OC, upper floor gaming PC-02.

MSI RTX 3080 Ti 12 GB Gaming X Trio, ground floor office-gaming PC-03.
MSI RTX 3070 Ti 8GB Suprim X, upper floor HTPC PC-04 (to be replaced by RX 7900 XT 20 GB).
ASUS GTX 1660 Super 6 GB, ground floor HTPC PC-05 (to be replaced).
ASUS GTX 1660 Super 6 GB, ground floor office PC-06.

I sold RTX 2080 8GB, RTX 3060 12 GB, RTX 2080 Ti 11GB, and GTX 1080 Ti 11GB during the crypto mining craze.

 

[Blitzkuchen]

Main are two cards:
For sanbox games its ARC 770 16GB (I3 10100) Satisfactory, No Mans Sky, Minecraft (never CPU bound).

For mainstream and indies its ARC 750 (i5 10400F) i did it upgrade from A380 to A750

 

[lemoncarbonate]

MSI GTX 1080 Ti Trio (11GB)

IMO the best card Nvidia ever released.

G92 would like a word.

I jest. GP102 is a beast. G92 was fantastic, tho.
