Why did we let Nvidia get away with this bullshit?

(you)

I don't understand, are you complaining about hardware or games?

Probably both.

Games have been loaded with more superfluous bullshit while nVidia's been kneecapping their previous generations of cards purely to boost sales of new cards.

>budget card made in 2014 can't max out games from 2016
STOP
THE
PRESSES

>have to play low/medium settings
you can play on high and maintain 60fps
unless you have a shitty cpu.

They didn't get away with it. Many people were trolled into buying the card for the lulz but Nvidia straight lost the class action lawsuit and had to pony up $30 to every 970 owner.

you're bullshit. I use my 970 to play DOOM and Titanfall 2 at 1440p, maximum settings except for the absurdly large texture packs, and always get around 80 FPS.

the games your trying to play are shit anyway
not even meming

>budget

>970 and fx8350

Haha I don't even fucking care

i'm surprised your amd card didn't explode while you tried to write that post, op
970 maxes everything from 2016 that i've thrown at it
on medium settings my 560ti runs everything from 2016

>low/medium settings

Pretty much the only thing this card is limited to is 1080p and second to highest texture setting. Of course that doesn't mean that the false adverting was right.

Dude I have a R9 390 which is around the same tier as a 970 and I can max out every game that matters. This will still carry me for at least a year, depending if there's a game that I really want to play that really needs a better GPU, which is extremely unlikely.

Actually it's the nvidia cards that have been exploding.

Doom runs max settings just fine for me. You probably bought some broke shit.

You don't even know the half of Nvidia's bullshit. Try owning a 770, or even worse, a 780 Ti or Kepler Titan. What enormous wastes of money.

>Why did we let Nvidia get away with this bullshit?
This is why I gave them more money for a GTX 1070.

>500$ card
>Budget
>PC "master race"

this, but user you have to remember that the 390 has 8gb of vram instead of 3.5.

if it's not an *80 or *80Ti it might as well be

>a batch of bad vrms coupled with evga shitty cooling is the whole 10 series

meanwhile rx480 was damaging your mobo until proper driver update was released

The only game I'm having trouble with is Hitman™, but that's apparently the game's fault for being unoptimized.

I'm still mad that I bought a 970 before the 3.5 issue was public, though.

>"pc master race"
>Has to pay 500 dollars for a graphics card that can only run games with the same quality as a ps4
O I am laufin

the 3.5 gb really only imposes a limit to the highest texture setting. The 970 can still nearly max out everything.

The R9 390 can actually into compute performance, VRAM, and new APIs though.

anything below titan is budget, only poorfags get x80 series

some of us don't work at mcdonalds
Plus the 970 launched at like $320, it's in the $200s now.

Even a gtx 1050 is suffice to beat a ps4

>playing at 1080p
>nu-doom at 120fps~
>witcher 3 around 80fps
>skyrim SE 90~110fps
nah ur a cunt

>didn't buy an R9 390 instead

There was no reason to buy an Nvidia card last gen when AMD had superior offerings in every price bracket

>Unoptimized
>Can run on 4K at ULTRA 60 FPS on a 390
>AMD optimizations are open source

Don't blame Hitman for your shitty meme card and Nvidia Jew tactics.
