AMD Radeon Deals & Offers

Is AMD just as good as Intel? I’m lost, can anyone explain the difference?

If you're happy with refurbs, equivalent spec hp omen 16 has been about £650 fairly recently.

Just return the Lenovo 5 with virtually the same spec. Found it really janky on the frames like 30fps to 150 fps just walking and updated everything I could think of. But could be totally different on this

Hadn’t seen that but from a quick look at reviews the USB-C isn’t powerful enough to stop the laptop discharging while under heavy use (gaming). So you still need the power brick if gaming or making it work hard.

Any of these on offer with the code that have numpad buttons and also that don't look ridiculous?

Had this card for a while, undervolted well, overclocked well too. The fan noise however was crazy, had to spend alot of time and testing getting a comfortable fan curve all on the 'silent' bios lol. Other than that it performed amazingly. Wouldn't pay that for it however now days, sold mine on eBay a while back, will go back in at sub £400.

I paid £753 for this (new also) in October last year. But at the same time I sold my one year old Red Devil 5700XT on eBay for £765 + P & P. Apparently the 5700xt is good for mining. But I won't pretend to know much about what that is. I'm not an expert in PC components but it had bigger numbers on the 6700 so I assumed it would be better. And that's what a few phone calls to 'experts' indicated. I'm not convinced but in money terms it was almost a straight swap for a new card so it felt like the right thing to do. But on a side note, selling that 5700 graphics card on eBay was a nerve racking experience. And I thought all was well. Until the buyer opened a payment dispute 2 x weeks ago which was exactly 6 x months after the auction ended. Resolved in my favour thankfully but is there a better way to sell second hand graphics cards?

There is no good reason to buy AMD GPU's, they are not as feature rich as NV cards, and are not the best for emulators. It doesn't come down to being a FAN BOY, its just down to plain facts. A GPU is no good if it doesn't do ALL that you task it with. Avoid.

Plenty of RX 6750 XT kicking about for ~£25 more... surely that would be a better buy?

I was very lucky, as when I decided to build, they dropped the 3070 the week after and I was able to snatch 1. Could have gotten some other cards as well(think it was the 3060ti) but didn’t want to scrap it so didn’t bother. I would suspect a drop will happen soon, as the UK haven’t had a drop for over a month

Any other cheapish low powered AMD cards? That would do games up to 2015?

I'm not sure on the exact full height dimensions of the card. However you can just unscrew the bracket, there's no need to cut it down.

pretty sure Firepro W4100 is a better deal since it still has driver support... for how long, who knows 750ti still has drivers...atm.

All cards you have mentioned except for gtx 960 are out of support and there will be no more official drivers updates for them. Also theres no good modded drivers for old Nvidia cards. With AMD you at least have NimeZ modded drivers that actualy works well

General idea about this card G3D marks (rough estimation of the cards ability) this card -936 - £17.99 - performance per £ (PPP)= 52 GTX 560 ti - 3062 - £30 on ebay - PPP = 102 GTX 750 ti - 3917* - about £60 on ebay PPP= 65.2 GTX 960 - 6036 - about £60 = PPP= 100.6 *more capable than the G3D mark suggests It seems like if you are on the super low end, a GTX 560 ti gives you almost double performance per pound spent tl/dr- pay a little more for a 560 ti

Better to buy a used 980ti!

Isn't this worse than a 1650?

I don't call myself a gamer..the only reason I had the 570 was because I had a Xeon..I'm past playing games..but if people want to spend £500 plus on a GPU it's up to them

Can't believe anyone games on such garbage, call yourselves gamers?, you must have paper rounds

I remember getting the Rx 570 for about £70 before everything went mental..good card..£160 - £170 for a card thats nothing better is madness..the 1630 on the way but no doubt it will have a stupid price

I'd pay 401 if you have one.

Not sure I would agree with that. I'm actually after one of these for PCVR gaming, I have read that these cards will provide the immersion experience from these top cards

Even at £400 this card would be a rip off. Lets face it, it's aimed at Miners, not gamers, which is the reason we see this ludicrous pricing in 2022.

Alert me when it's under £700 and available from somewhere other than ebooger, or overscalpers... :{

Past experience of what a not quite top of the line card used to cost (adjusting for inflation) I believe.
