Amd or Nvidia

[_goooge_]

Hello everybody i built my own pc with a amd r9 390 gpu in there and i was wondering if i should have sent my amd card back and got a gtx 970 4gb version because all of my games lag.

R9 390 out performs 970 and has more VRam

First off...
1.) The R9 390 is faster than the GTX 970 so your problems would likely be worse with a 970
2.) The R9 390 has more than twice the amount of Ram of the GTX 970 so that is another bottleneck eliminated.

What CPU do you have? How much Ram do you have? What specific game(s) is lagging? What is the resolution of your monitor(s)?

We need to see your PC specs in order to make an informed comment but at first glance the issue is probably not with your GPU.

well, I would say that activating your copy of Windows 10 would be step 1.
