Home PC Builds. This post is dedicated to the best rated and top selling Radeon graphics cards of — It's also more than capable of real-time ray tracing, courtesy of 80 RT Cores. The reason we don't rate this card higher up in our list of the best graphics cards, however, is down to its price. Massively inflated pricing, or lack of stock, notwithstanding. However, the RTX wields it well, managing to dispatch the RTX by a large margin in most games, and by enough of a gap in the rest to make it worthwhile.

Best gaming PC : the top pre-built machines from the pros Best gaming laptop : perfect notebooks for mobile gaming. With a decent generation-on-generation improvement and plenty of speed at p and p, the RTX 12GB is a graphics card easily argued for. It's also nominally cheaper than the RTX was on launch day, though it's not so easy to find it as a discrete number nowadays. That said, this card often crops up within pre-built gaming PCs , and for a decent price all-inclusive too.

You could attempt to manually refresh every store page in the hopes of striking gold on the next restock; that's one way to go about it. Or, you could sign up for a trusty app that goes about trawling major retailers for you. It's not a bot that tries to snap up stock the wrong way; it just does the refreshing, so you don't have to. We've had success with the app HotStock in the UK, and sites such as Stock Informer offer a similar service in the US, although we've not used this service to score stock personally.

Similarly, you can find plenty of free Discord servers with dedicated stock alert bots and eagle-eyed community members, such as the popular StockDrops server.

And don't forget Twitch streams. Those dedicated to finding your stock will often fire out a deafening klaxon the moment stock appears. We recommend checking out Falcodrin on Twitch for Nvidia GPUs, but there are plenty of kind souls out there offering a similar service.

It's not for everyone, but the best way to ensure you'll receive a graphics card this year, and a modern one at something close to MSRP, is to buy a prebuilt gaming PC. It's a worthy consideration if you're considering a total rebuild at some point in the future, at least. System builders appear to enjoy a more stable supply of graphics cards, and while some still expect delays, you are at least guaranteed a PC with GPU in situ eventually.

However, it's become increasingly common for major games to ignore multi-GPU users completely. That includes all DXR games. The two red arrows below point at the newly separated piece I cut off. The circled area shows the next piece I have to grind down to get it to fit. I changed from the circular saw dremel tool to a belt sander which worked great. Ok, this is what the card looks like completely modified. This was the end of the mods to the card. The red arrows point to the parts removed.

Ok, now when I inserted the newly modified graphics card into the Dell seen below it was stopped by some parts in the existing Dell case. Well, time to void that Dell warranty! In the picture below, I have cut off one of the nubbins and I am holding it in needle nose pliers "E". I used a few disposable "cutting wheels" "G" on the dremmel tool. Next I have to cut off "H" in the same way. In the picture below you see the card finally correctly seated in the PCIe slot.

Do you know if its possible to use a different driver for video cards? Good luck with it. I am using nvidia geforce GT M along with solidworks in windows 8. But i cant get rendering view in my system.

The RealHack. It worked for me like a charm. Just google realhack3. I tryed the registry trick, no success. Notify me of followup comments via e-mail.
