[SOLVED] New Graphics Card

[Cordante]

Hi, i have a quick question about Graphics Cards. I have now 2 pcs. Asus R9270X-DC2T-2GD5 (wich is pretty old now) and i'm just wondering if it would be better with one of this card: Asus ROG STRIX-GTX1050TI-O4G-GAMING than my 2 old cards? Best regards Cordante

Rough performance difference above.

The GTX1050ti is a bit faster than the R9 270x. Plus the 1050ti is newer and significantly more power-efficient than an R9 270x, so the 1050ti is the better card.

Thought so, but wondering if it is better with one 1050ti than my 2 R9 270x i have in crossfire, i wan't to go back to just a single card again and i do not wan't to loose any performance 😉 can't use sites like that to compare 1 vs 2 cards?

Well, most modern games don't see much benefit, if any, from crossfire anymore. I would bet the 1050ti is still the better bet.

It would run MASSIVELY cooler and draw WAY less power than dual crossfire 270x.

Good point, my cards are running pretty high in temps 😛
