Advanced Member polynut Posted March 14, 2019 Advanced Member Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Hi guy's, I am currently upgrading my old but loyal amd 7950 but i was struggling to find information about opencl versus cuda for 3d coat since i don't want to be penalize by choosing the wrong brand for working in 3d coat. For the little information i was able to find it's seem that i have no other choice than nvidia if i want solid performance in 3d coat sculpting but maybe this have change so can someone be kind enough to inform me since i need the new card very soon.

Carlosan Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 I prefer always nVidia over AMD, but dont know what is your budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Applink Developer haikalle Posted March 14, 2019 Applink Developer Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 I would suggest 2070 it has good performance and the price is not so deep than in 2080. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will spend about 500$ and i already stop my choice for the rtx 2060 since the 2070 is 200$ for close to the same performance but it have 2 GB more of vram so 200$ for 2 GB of vram is too much in my opinion. If i still choose AMD will i be able to work decently or not at all with 3d coat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in Canada the 2070 is 200$ more than the 2060 and performance are almost on par except for the 2 GB of additional ram on the 2070.

That's good point. I'm going to buy new graphic card tomorrow and I was planning to buy 2070. But now I'm not quite sure anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here a comparison between the 2 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=at5Hirg3cPY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be but for the price i just want to take an affordable card since we never know what AMD will come up with this fall and i don't want to regret my purchase. Also when navi launch rtx card are going to drop in price. Keep in mind that the rtx 2070 seem to have a lot of rma and failure and so far the rtx 2060 even if it is very recent doesn't seem to have these failures.
