So… my graphic card just fried. I will have to get a new one. No ideia what to do.
I have a 3 year old AMD FX 8320 and im worry if it will be a bottleneck and if i should get a AMD card as well or a AMD processor interacts fine with a NVidia card?
The one that just fried was a AMD Radeon HD 7950

Well that sucks that your card fried 
Anyways your CPU is better than mine ( AMD FX4300) and i have no problems with bottlenecking. The only games i really play right now are GD and dark souls 3 and both run just fine with that cpu.
Nvidia cards work just fine with AMD CPU’s as i have an Nvidia GTX 950 and am having no issues with the games i play.
Really what card you get depends on if you prefer AMD or Nvidia and what your price range is 
Thanks for the answer.
About price range, is pretty much the one that they have to deliver on spot 
I was looking prices online and there is a huge gap between new ones and ones that were release like march this year.
For now I will be playing with my 7 year old notebook that plays at 30fps all low all off
A bit hard to play as mage, hard to dodge
No problem 
One more thing even if you do have the money, do NOT get an EVGA GTX 1080 apparently they have been catching fire :eek:
You should be fine with a card that is a year old or so. You will still get the performance you need but will save you some cash as well.
Good luck playing on your laptop 
Just be careful. Older cards do not necessarily become cheaper in terms of $/frame. For example the fabulous 7950 costs here at my place still 270-350 which is about the price I paid for it shortly after it came out. For example for 300$ you likely get something better than a 7950, altough it is a great card.
Nowadays almost all manufacturers have 2-3 product lines where the most expensive cards are way overpriced for what you usually need for gaming (without 4K resolutions/multiple monitors/3D/modding/etc). Those cards are for specific purposes and therefore you pay the price.
Beside from that, if you just want to game and have no other requirements, just go for tests/benchmarks - and maybe have in mind the card fits into your case and mainboard layout (some cards can be really bulky/large)
Cards they have and fit my wallet… suggestions?
My config:
AMD FX-8320 3,5Ghz 16Mb CACHE
MOTHERBOARD GIGABYTE GA-970A-D3
POWER 650W COOLER MASTER GX 80 PLUS
2x4GB RAM DDR3 1600MHZ G.SKILL

lol that’s what I’m thinking
Seriously, if you have the cash i think the 1060 will be the best bang for your buck.
If this are brazilian dollars and the converter I used is correct: holy shit it is expensive at your place.
The GTX 1060 would definetly be my choice here. It needs 1/3 to 1/2 less power than the RX 480 and is a lot quieter (2.3 sone vs 3.3 sone) while still providing more power (Random AC:Unity benchmark 39 minimum fps vs 35 minimum fps and 43.4 vs 37.9 on average compared to only 28 of the RX 470 and low 14 of the RX 460)
The performance of both is fine, but as they are almost as expensive the GTX provides simply a little bit more of everything. Also I really am biased towards nvidia drivers since I have developed a 3D game myself - altough I am using a 7950 currently as it was simply the best bang/buck back then.
I dont know what that means… 
Well… Brazil is known by its nuts tax system. Games are considered “Gamble” so the tax is huge. Like 100℅. Pc game is a big market in brazil because we can buy games via steam and dont pay shit to the goverment, while console games worth 200 to 300, almost 1/3 of the minimal wage

What the hell kind of video card costs a brazilian dollars?:rolleyes::rolleyes:
Exactly how many zeroes are in a brazilian dollars??
Two… $1.00
Actually none. Brazil uses reals, not dollars.
I meant real obviously.
Right now $1.00 = R$3,20
And my post wasn’t directed at you obviously.
