As long as the game in question isn’t a coding shitshow, then a bit of graphics option tweaking and compromises on Super MegaExtreme Quality will pretty consistently get the 380X running stuff at 60fps/1080. Most recently (last year), the R9 380X seemed pretty solid as a 1080p card a shade over the $200 USD range.įor the most part, its done a great job. That’s not really a demonstration of brand loyalty so much as a happy accident AMD offered the most attractive GPU at the price point I’d set myself on the last couple of occasions. Those of you who vaguely follow this assemblage of articles we collectively refer to as PC Invasion will know that I’m the member of staff who consistently winds up with AMD cards in his system.
