At least he won't have to replace it for a long time, even when DDR4 comes out, he won't have to replace it.

tl;dr if you want something that you won't have to replace for a very long time, get an i7 and 16gb, if you just want gaming for now and want to upgrade as tech improves, get i5 and 8.

What you think that's going to happen does not equal that it is going to happen.

You should never base your recommendations off of rumours.

Buying a PC that does not suit you and having overkill parts is extremely ridiculous considering you could save money and get the same if not better performance.

By the time he actually uses the i7 and 16GB's of RAM, it won't be relevant considering there will be something newer and better.

finally thankyou

He gives you false information and you thank him.

Zero sense given.

Because I give the Biggest Shiz in the world about having 16gbs of RAM and i7. icare

yeah I'm giving him so much false info. If he wants to get an i7, let him get it, they're out there to buy for a reason? They sell 16gb of RAM for a reason too, so people can use it. And there are still people out there using 4gb of DDR2 ram, and I bet in their time people were like omg that's so much over kill, why would you ever get that, and they're smiling right now because they still don't have to upgrade, and their mobo can still handle any gpu.

They exist for a reason? No way, man. I thought Intel released it just to release it to show that their top dog. Thanks for reminding me.

Just because they sell 'X' product does not mean it's suitable for Joe Blow over here who wants to play COD, no does it? You're spending more than you need to and you're still getting crap tier parts. If you don't realize this, you're delusional - than again, you're the same idiot who recommends GTX 480's in 2012 so we all know you have no credibility.

In their time, aka 4 years ago. That is not relevant. Hell, you could still rock that and it'd be fine.

480 is bad? You have NO CLUE what you're talking about.

If you're looking for a video card today? Yes, it's horrible.

It's a huge power hog and gets really hot.

I've seen a GTX 570 the other week on NCIX for $239.99 and it gets relatively the same performance but it does not have the cons that the 480 has. Nvidia is not supporting that card anymore.

All I can do is lol. It may be a power hog, but if you're not stupid, it's a good card.

You're LOL'ing because you realize how much of an idiot you are.

Not only is the GTX 570 cheaper than the GTX 480 ( even cheaper on other websites ), but it uses less power, produces less noise, and is a much cooler card and does generate as much heat as an oven. Also, it's a slightly better card that's actually supported.

So tell me, what normal person with a brain would choose the 480?

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

you lose again. It is supported, [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] there's the newest drivers for it if you want em.

So it's 40 watts less lol, and the only reason you would need it to be super quite is if you jerk off all the time not game. 7/10 gamers use headphones too (exaggeration and guess completely)

480 is 2 generations ago, it gets hot as f*ck, yes it may be good, but a 570 beats it.
Latest 480 drivers were released in May. So it is basically not supported as much as when it was the best series for NVidia GPUs.

-Larger
-Hotter
-More power-hungry
-Will drop support sooner
-Louder

There's more to a card than performance. These things make it a hard recommendation, really. I've never had experience with the card, but I'm willing to say overclocking is another reason the 570 is a better choice right now.

I've had personal experience with the card, and it's not loud at all, unless you're an idiot and have the fan at 100 percent. Support isn't even dropped for the GT 8800 nonetheless 480. 480 has better performance for just 40 more watts. Heat is a problem with any good card that doesn't have three fans nowadays, and size really shouldn't matter unless you don't know how to manage your cables.

I'm not going to say you're wrong, because I don't think you are. The 480 performs well for the price and it's worth mentioning in a recommendation, but I don't think it's better overall than a 570. Under load, this thing gets significantly louder, hotter, and draws more power than the 570. Please tell me if I'm wrong because I didn't look at any measurements to confirm this, it's just coming from what I know about these cards. The 570 should handle a higher overclock as a result as well. I'm not sure about the frequency of these updates, but it seems only logical more recent cards would recieve more updates.

Hopefully I'm off to bed now and I'm not in any mood for an argument. It's a graphics card.

You can OC the 480 higher in rivatuner. And 4xx takes same drivers as 5xx and 6xx for the most part, including display drivers.

Looking at these temps and fan speeds overclocked, I just can't recommend this card. Not with the newer options around, at least. Not everyone is willing to push their hardware to the very limit and 90 celsius in games is not something most people would be comfortable with. I can't fault you for buying it, but it's not for everyone.
