Well. It is a great product at a great price.
Like you though, I do prefer Intel in my main system, considering how long a CPU can last you these days... I would rather something that has great single thread performance, lots of cores and can clock high.

I would be in the market for an AMD GPU (given I have a freesync monitor), though I'm pretty sure Navi will launch quite a bit after Nvidia's more mainstream cards. Hopefully AMD can pull through in the GPU market and pull off a "Ryzen" like product.. as Nvidia dominance means less progress for all. As for fabric stitching.. this would be interesting to see.. if it works on GPU's as well. Seeing how well Threadripper scales with extra cores. |
It's only an RX 580. Although it handles most games perfectly fine at 1440P, there are titles that do struggle... Plus I would like to start supersampling from 4k.
Vega isn't worth the purchase, so hopefully Navi brings the goods.
Plus I could do with the extra compute.
The fabric is the real interesting approach... Using smaller chips means that yields will be higher, which should dramatically reduce costs verses a giant monolithic GPU like in the nVidia Titan V.
