AMD Now Rules The under $200 Video Card Market!

2019-04-30
hey everybody for the longest time there has been an ongoing trend and this is the battle between AMD and NVIDIA traditionally nvidia has always had faster stuff at a higher price AMD has always had a little bit of slower stuff and they've been at a lower price point obviously it's sometimes this is flipped a little bit but now we're seeing the trend actually start to shift for the very first time ever and I think it's really great news for gamers around the world now you guys all know that last week Nvidia released the GTX 1650 card no one really likes that card and to be quite honest with you and less it is the version that requires no power like the zotac I'm not into it I'll say it straight up it's just well there's other versions that cost more money they're like almost $200 at $200 you can be getting yourself an RX 590 that's faster and everything else so today's video is really about this we did a video the other day comparing one $49 cards - cards priced identically at 149 dollars now some people keep saying that Oh 100 dollars is an entry level entry level video card but I'm just going to tell you this right now if you're expecting to get 60 frames per second at 1080p and only pay $100 maybe you're looking about five years in the future that just where it's at 149 dollars excuse me sometimes a little frog in my throat as I gather my thoughts there what we're seeing right now though is that AMD actually is ruling at this price point at 149 dollars which I feel right now is pretty much an entry level gaming card AMD gets the crown you guys have seen from the tests that we have shown you that the RX 570 this particular card and we tested the 8 gigabyte card and yes I know some people out there gonna go dude they have some of these cards that are a hundred and thirty dollars these are the 4 gigabyte version cards the 4 gigabyte version cards in the test are barely at all faster in most cases then the 1650 that's just how it is it'll it'll beat in some cases by a wee bit but the 8 gigabyte version that particular card does better across the board so at this time point right now for anything under $200 AMD is ruling in this price range they really are I mean you can get all the way up until an rx 580 and pay less than under $200 and if you want to spend a little bit more and get yourself a 590 all I could just spend about 219 bucks you might be able to find some of these unsay Lauren being possibly even mildly used for even much cheaper than that so in this current time frame AMD has finally succeeded and they're doing this well at beating AMD in both price and performance that's just how it is I mean cuz like you said even if the 570 even if the 4 gigabyte version is still beating it's still beating it period that's really all that matters with us by an inch a mile whatever it still wins at the exact same price point so now AMD is ruling in this area and it's something that rarely is ever seen and with NVIDIA having their prices of their high-end cars like in the $1400 range I mean honestly that puts that card out of reach for so many people out there in the world now there's probably a lot of price market margin which people have always get mad at as well because they you know they make the crazy comments about Nvidia kind of an ingredient all kinds of crazy stuff like that but honestly those cards are priced so high there probably is a shit ton of profit margin in there with all that you know I'm saying so I don't know just making only really SuperDuper expensive cards make people more money I don't know because it seems like to me the entry-level and mid-level areas of computing are where people are going to be spending the most amount of money because face it most people want to have a computer at home and if you're not a serious gamer but you still want to be able to game you want a decent card and now we've proven to you guys that we can put a system together and probably we can even went we could have tightened our belts a little bit more we could have got this system down to about $600 so for $600 you can get yourself an AMD based system that's gonna play all of your games it'll do halfway decent editing as well you can do everything online everything you need to do and pay $600 now obviously they're going to be the snobby people out there going to want the absolute best of the best these the people at play a whole lot of games and are really in the gaming I mean that's kind of how I started my career doing this stuff I started out just being a gamer and loving to play games I loved playing games so much I started to want to write about it I was like oh man well what can this computer do and what computer can that do how does this play these games you know who my god is like really exciting stuff and this was back like pretty much in the dinosaur area of the PC industry and back then this same type of thing was going on you prayed a really high premium for the best stuff and then the other stuff was cheaper but really AMD now has successfully checkmated Nvidia at the sub $200 price range so anything that's going to be under $200 right now Nvidia is pretty much ruling that market I'm sure Nvidia is gonna have their take on this and everything else because everybody has their opinion let's just face it but we've done the testing and for me if I had less than $200 in my pocket and I was gonna build a system and get a video card I would definitely be going the AMD route at this time plate if I'm gonna be an uber snob and I really gonna play a lot of games sure I might get a 280 yeah I mean excuse me a 20 80 and I might go for that direction if I really want or one of the other cards but for anybody who is please games but games don't completely rule their life you can build a system for under six hundred bucks using AMD parts and an rx 570 and you're in like Flynn and other people out there said hey man I'd really upgrade and get myself but 580 well you know what if you want to kick in a few more bucks 40 more bucks guess what you can do that but you're still under that 200 dollar price range so this particular video I'm all have links down below to just a whole bunch of different cards you know that you guys same kind of choices too in this particular price range so if you're looking to get yourself an RX 570 we'll have some down there
