Hello.
I want to buy a new graphics accelerator, since AMD HD5450 is not good anymore.
I will have some more free time, so I will be able to play some video games (GTR 2 and similar). Besides, next year DOOM 4 is coming out. That is why I need something better than a really slow card.
I don't want a top video card, though. I have read a review (on a Russian website - ixbt) that AMD 370 is the best among the main rivals. And this card is far from the top devices.
But, I have read recently that AMD adopted a new technology - the HBM (no real cards were presented, though, I mean, for real people, not for extreme enthusiasts).
This fact forced me to think twice.
So, what is better: waiting for the HBM2 and lowered power consumption, or buying a new card right now?
I am thinking about this one:
MSI RADEON R7 370 (it is slightly cheaper than on Newegg)
or similar to this one:
SAPPHIRE Radeon R7 370
(although, I am pretty much sure to buy it in a real shop)
