Great Video, keep it up, not everyone can afford the latest hardware, so it's good to see videos with older hardware. Just out of curiosity, which drivers were you using? Stock AMD drivers? Have you tried using the modified drivers? Would be good to see if the drivers make any difference, I know they add support for newer titles, but do they give a performance benefit as well 🤔👍
the RX 580 8GB had such great longevity, still kinda does. 7970 vibes definitely. the RX 480 might be slightly cheaper, but is largely interchangeable. a very wide array of CPUs over the years are "suitable" for these as well, although depending on the exact model i think the PSU might be the limiting factor since it is unlikely to be "drop in" optiplex build compatible like the GTX 750 was. i feel like a cheap skylake/coffee lake build or 1st/2nd gen ryzen works pretty well with the rx 580 and these days are very cheap to put together..
@@chazbotic Yes, Polaris cards do have now the same feel like early GCN 1 cards. And just like them, the limitted driver support is more likely to be the end for Polaris. As for the next platform, I'm leaning more to AM4, but we'll see.
