Greetings everyone, trying to upgrade my GPU as I'm sad I have to run Rust Experimental on Simple/Good to avoid lag spikes.
I currently have the below system (will put it right at the end), my question is - do I get a R9 390 or a R9 380 OR Crossfire one with my R9 270. I'm an absolute tech noob so have no clue with which factors to consider. I was initially looking at the 390, but read some bad reviews tonight on Ebuyer so a little unsure now. Would happily take recommendations also, kind of an AMD fan boy though so not sure how comfortable I am with NVIDIA as I've been installing AMD software and drivers for a good couple of years now. Thanks in advance, any help would be great!
Also below are the 2 cards I was specifically looking at:
R9 380 - MSI Radeon R9 380 GAMING 4GB GDDR5 Dual-Link DVI-D HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E Graphics Card - Ebuyer
R9 390 - MSI Radeon R9 390 Gaming 8GB GDDR5 Dual-Link DVI-D HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E Graphics Card - Ebuyer
My current system:
MB: MSI 970 Gaming
CPU: AMD FX-8320 8 Core 3.50Ghz
RAM: 2x8GB G.Skill Ripjaw(DDR3 1333) + 2x4GB Generic (DDR3 1600)
GPU: MSI R9 270 Gaming 2GB
PSU: 750W Novatech 80Bronze
HD: 1 x 120gb OS SDD + 2TB HDD
OS: Win 8.1 Legit Copy
