This all just may be a preference type thing, but from pure computer knowledge, AMD is better for budgets, always has been and (hopefully) always will be. Intel has always had stronger single core and gaming performance, but lack in price to performance (p2p)

Why would I get Intel then? AMD CPU’s seem like they will fit my needs perfectly!

Well, hold that thought, it depends on what your doing, and what your looking to get out of your computer as well, if your doing any intensive workstation work, and want it done fast, Intel is #1. As long as your gaming, AMD is perfect for it. now if you are buying new, AMD processors usually come with better stock coolers that give some overclocking headroom and Integrated Graphics (VEGA 11) and Honestly, I am not a big “Fan” of Intel’s stock coolers.

Overall it depends on your task your trying to complete or just your personal preference. Happy Shopping!

3. Nvidia GTX 1060 6G model $150 – $250

Even though this card is last generation pascal architecture, it’s a great budget choice, but if I were you, I wouldn’t pick it up for more than $165 (and don’t pick up the 3 GB variant of this card) because there are better options for a thicker wallet. With 6 GB of GDDR5, 1280 CUDA cores and a processor clock of 1708 Mhz (1506 Mhz on Gfx clock), 1080p Gaming is a breeze.

2. Nvidia Gtx 1070 – $250

A great option for a budget gamer, or even for Workstation work. This card WILL do 4K, but only at low/medium settings with scaling in newer AAA Titles, (This is only an Estimation from old benchmarks), and will do 3D rendering at a decent speed. This card has 8 GB of GDDR5, clocked at 8 GBps, 1920 CUDA cores and a processor clock of 1638 Mhz (1506 Mhz on Gfx clock), there is plenty of power for a budget power user.

1. AMD Radeon RX 580 8G Model – $199.99

Need more VRAM and good Performance at a good price? This is at the top of my list for good price and performance. having two variants, the 4 GB and 8 GB models, the 8 GB is the best value because of the higher clocks of 1256-1366 Mhz. if you are gaming at 1080p on the side, and doing workstation work mainly, this card is more than applicable.

Overall, these are the 3 GPU’s I personally reccomend

Welcome!

I know it isn’t much right now, but there will be more here! I promise! (Well, for the most part, I cant exactly say I will do this blog thing for too long) I want to keep up on the blog stuff if anything really significant happens or at least try to 🙂 This blog is going to be strictly tech, nothing more, (Ok, Maybe some games and a bit of significant real life too).
