New GPU. About time!
Well my new card came today and I couldn't wait to hit the benchmarks!
This 390x is replacing my 270x and it is insane how much better it performs.
In the Unigine Heaven benchmark my 270x scored a 705 with an average fps of 28 while the 390x scored 1487 with an average fps of 59.
In 3DMark the results are as follows.
Fire Strike: 270x - 6368
Fire Strike: 390x - 13008
104% increase
Sky Diver: 270x - 20737
Sky Diver: 390x - 42187
103% increase
Cloud Gate: 270x - 42133
Cloud Gate: 390x - 82172
95% increase
Ice Storm: 270x - 335228
Ice Storm: 390x - 379881
11% increase
I don't know the reason for the small increase on Ice Storm but my guess is that it is such a base benchmark doesn't demand cards as much as the others so there isn't much room for improvement when you're already nearly maxing out the score. If someone has a better explanation please let me know!

One year of Sake Gaming!!!
One year ago one of my 2015 goals was to contribute to gaming in some capacity. I decided to make this blog to share screenshots, opinions, and videos.
Last year I was able to make 42 posts! Some of them better than others but all of them important to me. On my youtube channel I was able to upload 23 videos and garner just over 4600 views!
I really haven't tried to push this much because it is mostly for me but I appreciate all of the views and support everyone have given.
2015 was a great year for gaming. A few of my favorites.
Journey was a big one for me. I know it came out before but when it came to the PS4 it was the first time I got to play it and I absolutely loved it.
Witcher 3 is so so good, I still need to finish it.
Metal Gear Solid 5 was pretty dece. I'm only finished with chapter one but that's been like 50 hours! I really like the game and always had the itch to continue playing but it just wasn't quite there.
Fallout 4 has been really good. Not mind blowing like I was hoping, a lot of recycled content (a lot) and the graphics aren't the best but it has had some incredible side missions. I really loved the silver shroud missions!
Starcraft 2 Legacy of the void! Oh man. I've never loved a game like I've loved starcraft.
And as for new gaming habits. I've never played an NBA game other than NBA jam. I've been playing a LOT of NBA 2k16 with my brother in-laws and it has been an absolute blast. That game is seriously impressive.
Also I resubbed to Final Fantasy XIV and it has been a great time.
Here is looking forward to 2016!
