We are already in 2018 and in a few months we will have more modern options. But, to better explain what it means to buy a good graphic, take a look at the next video. It shows, faithfully, the feeling of being in the PC Master Race.
Now, you do not have to spend more than a thousand euros if you have more than enough with less. Hearthstone, for example, is a game that does not require a powerful hardware. While PUBG, at its highest quality, for now you need to invest a few hundred euros if you want to enjoy the grass that covers the surroundings of Pochinki in its PC version. We have made a list with several options that will help you enjoy.
The best graphic cards to play
NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti
The cards with this set are, currently, the favorite option of many in the field oriented to gaming. It is an improved version of the 2016 GTX 1080, renewed in March 2017, with 11GB of GDDR5X. Enough to handle textures in very high resolution, like some improved games for resolutions 4k and above. It is difficult to find a game that resists its power. It allows to work both with Virtual Reality and with several simultaneous monitors without many complications. Its price is usually around 800-1000 euros depending on the company that uses this NVIDIA technology, the quality of the components or the demand. But we will have assured a high quality graphic quality with the most recent titles.
AMD Radeon Vega
For its part, the other great designer of chips to play on PC (and consoles) is AMD. His career to achieve in NVIDIA performance has finally paid off in 2017. The presentation of the AMD Radeon Vega series has been a welcome respite for the fans of this company. With three products that are a little below the price of the corresponding products of NVIDIA in its same category. At the top of this line we have the graphics cards with AMD RX Vega 64 chipset. With a faster and quieter version, the Vega 64 Liquid, which uses liquid cooling to cool its components. With a little less power, but also with the fastest memory of the consumer market (HBM2) and 8GB of memory, we have the RX Vega 64, with no more tags. These are followed by Vega 56, with less bandwidth and computing power, but also with spectacular performance in all types of games. We are talking about a price range between € 600 and € 750.
AMD Radeon RX 580
Here we see a technology that has triumphed, above all, among cryptocurrency farms. Hence, its price remains high, around € 300. Although its performance for games is not as high as that of graphics cards with the same price and other technologies. It has 8GB of GDDR5, with capacity for a Virtual Reality of medium level. One of its advantages is the ease to assemble more than one card based on RX technology, within the same PC. With this, if we find them at a good price, we can have a very good performance and the possibility of scaling it when we can buy another one.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
This model has become one of the most desired by gamers. For its performance, enough to move any game with great quality, as for its price in relation. For less than 700 euros we have graphics cards with an 8GB memory of GDDR5. 4K and Virtual Reality are within their capabilities, with some sacrifices. However, series based on the previous generation, NVIDIA GTX 1070 and 980 Ti, are still capable of planting expensive. Apart from that there are the GTX 1060 series and lower, with more affordable prices and enough performance for many of us.
AMD Radeon RX 560
Each brand of chips has high-end, very high and economical versions of their designs. With a price close to 100 euros, our favorites come from the hand of AMD. The Radeon RX 570 model is a bit priceless. But those based on RX 560 give us many hours of play in CSGO, LoL or other titles that do not require much more than 60 images per second at 1080 resolution. These products usually have 4GB of GDDR5, enough to enjoy these titles. If, in addition, you want to use a double screen for office automation issues, it will support you thanks to the HDMI, DisplayPort and DVI ports. Remember that, below, we also have the Radeon RX 550, for example, enough for a League of Legends and thousands of games available on Steam.
NVIDIA TITAN Xp
We are facing the most powerful product in terms of graphics cards to play. So much, that its price is at € 1,299 and we can install more than one on the same PC. Of course, in addition to preparing the money for the cards, we must have a motherboard that supports them. As well as a power supply that feeds it with energy and a processor that does not decompose the system. With enough RAM to squeeze its capacity, this is a monster with the ability to run 12 TFLOPS. This is double that of an Xbox One X console, the most powerful in the world.
NVIDIA TITAN V
We talk about the top of the range in terms of cards to play. There is no other option that surpasses them, the NVIDIA TITAN V have reigned in 2017 and will maintain their position in 2018, barring surprises. Of course, this is a product that is at the top, for its price of € 3,100. Yes, just for one card, to which we must add the rest of the computer, the screen and accessories. In return, we received a product with 12 GB HBM2 memory and a technology focused on Artificial Intelligence. That yes, although it seems a waste to use it to play, will allow us to boast of power without equal in our PC.
