NVIDIA rep? Resizable bar gives you only 5% more. Works fine on PCIE 3. This guy is wrong.
Clueless much? Why comment to spread misinformation when you clearly know nothing on the subject. Resizable bar gives you only 5% more? Really? Some games see 100% increase in frame rate by enabling resizable bar. Resizable bar is literally a requirement for Intel graphics cards & that is why Intel themselves suggest newer hardware that supports resizable bar.

Do some research. It's a REQUIREMENT for Intel video cards. It's not about the performance increase, it's about the fact these Intel cards need it to essentially function. There are work arounds but you lose a ton of performance if you can even get it to work without rebar support.

Rebar is huge difference..I have a a750.. it's night and day
I don't know about that. When I tried to stick the rebar in my machine it let the smoke out sent sparks everywhere and a tingle straight to my toes. Whatever is I do wrong?

Be sure you have a system with resizable bar. This card will hardly work on any pcie gen 3 system
I don't know why this keeps coming up as even my setup with a z370 chipset (intel 8th gen) has rebar received in the form of a bios update. You probably need to have an older system to have rebar problems with this.

So anything socket am4 or better. I have an a320m Asus mobo that supports resizeable bar.
The a380 I tried couldn't handle sending a uefi video signal to my ancient Dell 1680x1050 21" monitor.

Would this be a significant step up for my son's system with an R9 390? I can't afford a new system for him but I'm trying to get something a little better and this is within a budget I can work with right now.
for a second i thought this is AMD's RX580.
not a bad price for the level of performance it provides. but if you gonna stick with Intel, then why not A750 that often dips to 180 USD?
i suppose i don't understand why there is 10 TU for a 160 dollar A580, and only 3 or 4 TU for a 180 A750
I wouldn't necessarily recommend as a gaming card if you don't have a MB with resizable bar but I have owned many of these cards and used them on very old pcie3 MBs without rebar for gaming and productivity.
Anyone interested can google some benchmarks with and without it enabled.
