Hey guys and gals of gaming

Well, it's definitely a list. It also seems to describe some graphics cards, so the description seems to be correct.

i`d say the 1060 hits the sweet spot for value for money. Depending of course how much your willing to spend.
Apparently the 1060 outperforms my 970, which can handle everything I throw at it on 1080p.

the rx480 is the sweet spot for performance/price
1060 is overpriced, especially in SA

The 1060's pricing is basically identical to the RX 480. There seem to actually be more cheaper 1060 options than 480s.

I'd still say the 480 is the better buy in the end though, depending on your needs of course.

I personally went with the 4gig RX480. Quite a bit cheaper than the 8gig and the 1060, and perfect for my needs.

It's not a very good devil if it hasn't convinced you to go home yet

Finished installing windows and drivers at 3:30am.

played a bit of shadows of mordor this afternoon.

Seeing as my last pc had an AGP GeForce MX220 iirc, and I last gamed on a laptop with a GT525M @ 1024x768 medium settings (mass effect 3), it is incredible

I prefer the 1060 over the RX480, but im simply an NVidia fan. But from a pricing standpoint, the RX480 IS the cheaper option...but as far as I know...you can cook eggs on Radeon cards xD

Have to agree, that 1060 is overpriced in SA, but its still a good card though. How does the RX480 handle BF1?

If you say so http://www.wootware.co.za/computer-...ce_gtx_1060-radeon_rx_480?dir=asc&order=price

You can have a 480 or 1060 for pretty much the same price.
