Looking to go straight into either the AMD Radeon 6900 or 6800xt. Wondering if I"ll need to make any major changes to my system. I know that running AMD CPU with the Radeon series stuff will be optimal, but until I can afford to upgrade my CPU and MOBO at the same time I was hoping that I'd still see significant gains (If it's possible) by switching over to AMD.
I"ve never used AMD Cards, or CPU's so I don't know exactly what will mix, mesh or clash. Thank you in advance!
