GPU upgrade - Nvidia VS AMD


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm getting sick of the Quadro 4000 I already have. It really prevents my employee from working properly (when I found time to test it myself I had to go out and relax. so frustrating) and I want to make a little upgrade.

 

BUT, I don't want to buy another GTX 780, its still an expensive card.

 

We work in 3Ds Max 2014, AutoCAD Architecture 2014.

 

I have these options in mind:

Gigabyte GTX760 OC - 475%

Sapphire Radeon R9 280X TOXIC - 495$

Gigabyte GTX770 OC - 540$

 

What do you say?

I say, WHY are you sick?

As I can see /over the internet!/ you maybe have some issue other thab Quadro 4000?

Qudro 4000, is still excellent graphic card, I used to have one, while ago, and I was pretty happy.

...

What display driver do you use for 3ds max? maybe thats the main issue?

OpenGL/Direct3D/Nitrous?

How many polies, your scenes average have?

....

Anyway, GTX760 4GB is the best buy these days.

Look for Gainward or Evga.

...

Good luck!

Average scene around 10m polys.

 

The driver is a certified I downloaded from autodesk.

 

I think this is more then a proof for me that the age of Quadros is over.

 

I'm not planning on gpu rendering, only need high viewport performance.

You sure GTX 760 will be the best choise? Why not 280x?
