Going to be geeking out with my old FX system to tonight to see what kind of benchmarks I can get out of it.

After months of considering a move to NVidia in the EVGA 1080 FTW, I've decided to give the RX Vega cards a chance. Will probably look to get one around Christmas. That of course depends how they perform. I'm not looking to be number one on the block, just that there are no game breaking issues like those that plagued the R9 Fury when they were first released - Fury X Display problem. | Community

At that time I swore I'd never touch another AMD card, but given enough time and well... Anyway, yeah, the Vega's look intriguing.
