Wich Graphic Cards?

[JOKIN MADNESS]

Wich graphic cards are compatible with this motherboard? And wich is the best? Thanks!

Basically any GPU will work in that.

For high settings 1080p gaming you want to aim for a GTX 1060 6gb or RX 580 8gb.

Every GPU or I should say modern day GPU which probably ranges from 2006 to 2018 works with modern day motherboards with PCIE slots. If it's a PCI GPU then if your motherboard has that you can use an oldschool GPU, but most modern day motherbords don't have those types of connectors because they are obsolete in 2018.

In general, the more you spend on the gpu the better the experience (higher framerates, smoother play and graphics settings).

The right gpu depends on the cpu, monitor settings and games that you play.

motherboard? Supports Dual Channel DDR3 old board

Any graphics card that uses PCI-Express 3.0 (PCI-E 3.0).

The higher end Nvidia prices are silly at the moment.

I would suggest an Nvidia rtx2070 for value/performance.
The gtx1050ti and gtx1060 are decent but are last generation so might be replaced soon.

Also depends at what resolution you game at, and what size power supply you have (eg rtx 2070 need 550 watts psu).

I currently have an RX 480 and it has been an excellent 1080p card. If you want the current gen, the RX580 offers excellent performance for the money.

If I may pop in with a 'broad' answer, almost all publicly-available GPUs will work with publicly-available mainboards these days / at this time (there are no huge differences in 'slot architecture' to worry about).

The only thing to watch out for, is if you are using multi-GPU setups (multiple videocards in multiple slots on a motherboard).
The two main manufacturers of GPUs at this time (AMD and NVIDIA) have two slightly different interfaces for multi-GPU connections: Crossfire and SLI .

If you are planning on using two AMD-manufactured GPUs, look for mainboards that state they are "Crossfire" or "Crossfire-X" compatible.
If you are planning on using two NVIDIA-manufactured GPUs, look for mainboards that state they are "SLI" or "NVIDIA-SLI" compatible.
There are also motherboards that can support both interfaces (so you can use either manufacturer of GPU).
Note that vendor brand of GPU does not matter (eg. ASUS, MSI, Sapphire, Gigabyte, XFX, EVGA, etc.etc.)

If you are planning on utilizing just one videocard, neither of these matter, in the choice of motherboard.


As for your specifically-stated mobo, it states it supports both architectures.

Just so you know, the way PCI Express works all video cards work with all motherboards. Even a GTX 1080 Ti could work with an old first-generation PCI Express motherboard from 2002. That is, technically you could install it and you could load drivers and it would play games. But.. then the other question comes in "Just because it works doesn't mean you should do it." That would be a terrible idea to pair new video cards with an older system.

That's not exactly what I meant (I was explaining how you don't have to worry about slots and connection architectures as much as you did say 10 years ago or more) - but you have a point somewhat... Although if someone did that, it would still be a viable "Upgrade" that is 'ready to go' once they can afford to Upgrade the rest of the system!

My current card is GTX 770 2Gb, and is getting old (I have an i7 and 16gb ram)

Should i go for GTX 1080 8Gb? Will it bottleneck?
Or just should i wait and make a total new pc for upcomign generations?

Literally dozens of i7s....Which one is it?

It'll bottleneck a bit.
But it really depends at what res, I'm going to asume 1080p, so yeah it will.
If you want to use the GPU to full potential consider a CPU upgrade.

The 3770k is getting very dated, I know a few guys with it, and they're complaining about it in modern triple A titles.

But if you're playing at 1440p, or even 4k, it shouldn't be a problem. It's very usable.

So yeah, I would wait and save more money for a Ryzen 3 seires and make a new build.

Depends on what clocks you run em at. At stock clocks, yeah the 3770K is really lacking today. I have a very special Z77 32-phase-power Gigabyte board in the other room I picked up a few months ago.. I'm actually planning to try and use it and a 3770K for my 1080 Ti here in a few months. Just planning to De-Lid it and go bare-die in a custom water loop and aim for 5.0 ghz or more though. If you clock em far enough, 3770K can be competitive with modern chips.

Can't disagree with you there.
