What do I need for 1600p?

What kind of gpu power do I need for 1600p? I currently have no gpu.

You sold your 7990 and 7970?

The X51 PSU blew up.....

Yeah. :(

Anybody know when the sexy 790GTx and the mighty 290x2 coming out?

A gtx 780 or higher, or the AMD equivalent R9 290 or higher. Up to you which company and cards you like the most personally I'd want a 780ti but some people would rather have a r9 290x.

aii u sure 780ti or 290x will do the job?

I say go for two, of whichever you choose.

I was so sure it was someone else who had the X51 and went on and on about how godly it is.

WHAT? you want 1 GPU to fill 2x 290?!?! you mean upgraded version of the 7990? yeah, keep waiting...

It depends on what frames you want at what settings. Dual gpu though to be comfortable.

It was slipknot

the 780ti costs $800, I would rather spend $1000 on the GTx 790

@kraken2109: Ah that's right. Haven't seen him in ages.

I posted some rumours about the 790 a while ago. Here is the source for the rumours

290X crossfire.

I just have 2 6950s unlocked and overclocked. So far the only game that gives me any problems are games that don't like crossfire. I would definitely go with a single card though, its smoother looking/feeling, but it only cost me 200 for both so it was worth it.

Just buy whatever is the most expensive because it must be good.

Bought a 780ti.damn its powerful. Dont think I would need another one. Maybe next month.

0/10

I'm using a gtx 770 4gb for 1440p but I wish I would have just got a 780. Maybe next year or the year after I'll get something crazy.

Regardless of your hardware setup - texture samples are a LONG way from looking passable at that high of a resolution.
I have the "privilege" of experiencing this firsthand.

Stick with 2.5k for now IMO.

Or maybe he has enough money so it makes sense

there is some new 4k monitors coming soon that wont be insanely expensive. I would rather go that route... if you have the cash.

You're talking about a self-proclaimed Alienware fan who bought a 7990 instead of a 2 7970s.

Oh, well in that case...Where are the pitchforks!

We must drive this demon back from whence it came!
