What GPU do you have in your PC?

I see that Nvidia is the queen here. I have a GTX 750. Works pretty well at high settings (about 45 fps everywhere with some drop at 30 in stations and planet surfaces) but my actual Intel Core2 Q8300 quad @2.50 Hz CPU is a bit a bottleneck.
I'm going to progressively upgrade my rig this year to welcome the Oculus Rift. First thing I'll upgrade is motherboard and CPU. Cant buy a 1500€ rig in oneshot or I'll have to eat bread and water for 3 months...

Well, that's logical considering NVidia has something like 70% of the discrete GPU market share.

It looks like AMD cards have similar representation across most of their recent models while NVidia users are concentrated in the upper range of the Maxwell cards (970 and up).

Absolutely no reason to break the bank! The Core i5 4670k (or 4690k) is a superb CPU, and should be getting cheaper now that Skylake is out. The GTX 950 is a beast for the price as well, and memory is extremely cheap.

Geforce GTX960 4Gb VRAM.

Runs every current game smoothly with top settings unless you play with extremely high resolutions, great bang for buck.

I started playing ED with an AMD Asus R9 270 but I used to get random lines flying off the orbit lines in SC and occasionally long triangular artifacts in stations. I suspected some bad video RAM on the card but I put up with it. When Horizons landed, the planet surfaces looked terrible with huge triangular spikes jutting off the surface so I've ditched that card and now have a superb 4GB NVIDIA MSI GTX 960 (highly recommended and not too pricey). MSI make excellent kit :)
I'm getting much better fps (rarely dips much below 40fps on surface) and NO artifacting. ED looks much better and plays really well on this card with ultra settings 1680x1050 :) I only wish I'd bought it last year instead of that Asus AMD card.

I used to have a crossfire AMD 6970, 4-5 years old now. Switched to a Nvdia 980 Ti because of fallout 4. I would liked to have a high end AMD but that has only 4GB. A fully modded fallout eats that for breakfast, hence an nvidia with 6GB ram.

I wonder if the ED client reports frame rates as part of the hardware survey, and if so, whether FD would care to share some of the data ;)?

AMD R9 390, 8GB (Sapphire OC). Game settings ultra at 1920x1200.

Quite a decent card for the price now that AMD have finally hotfixed the supercruise issue.
