Replaced my current graphics card with a new nVidia GTX 1070 - my previous AMD R9 was beginning to hitch and noticeably stutter with larger PS files and other heavy graphic work. Thought about going for one of those newer AMD 480's but after reading and checking tests I wasn't too impressed and the 10XX's seemed to give more bang-for-buck.
Anyway. Got it installed no problem, sorted the colour best I could until I can calibrate it properly. Ps runs fine - files zoom and scale like shit off a shovel. C4D runs fine, like it always does. But. I decided to fire up Doom - the old card (with the Vulkan update) ran at a steady 60-70fps on high settings, which was fine for me. Or so I thought... With this thing in, it now runs on Ultra at approx. 200fps :D
Two-fucking-hundred. Shit is fucking bananas, yo.
