GPU?

Good day friends

 

My computer is a single computer working with an Intel i7-8700K 3.7 GHz processor and a memory of 48 GB DDR4
Now I have been looking at upgrading my graphics card to a 16 GB card and was looking at this;
ASUS Radeon 16 GB, RX7600 XT Dual OCWould I be able to use better graphics setting with that graphics card instead of the 6 GB card I use today?

What I see is that the new 16 GB card has a BUS of 128 bit and my present has  192 bit, does that affect anything?

 

Just to add some additional info about the bus bandwidth question you asked.

From what I have read, while a bigger bus such as 192-bit or 256-bit bus is capable of providing more capacity/throughput, there are also another factors to consider such as how fast the memory on the graphics card is working. These two together with how big the secondary buffers are can determine/impact overall performance from the GPU in handling data.

Based on the latest Nvidia RTX 4xxx cards and later, having faster memory and a bigger buffer can also allow for higher throughput even if the bus itself is narrower e.g. 128-bit. I am not sure if those same principles apply to the ATI cards, but I would imagine its not holy dependent on just the bandwidth of the bus.Its probably best to look at some graphics card performance comparisons executed under controlled test conditions to gauge comparative performance rather than focusing just on tech specs of GPU cards.

Good luck with your upgrade! 😉
