What is a good AMD GPU to replace, my AMD Radeon HD 5700 Series, my motherboard is ASUS A88X-Pro with 16(8x2) GB RAM. (Note: System is build for Crossfire support with GPU and motherboard.) Maybe, I’m better off buy just replace GPU card with better one or add other CPU with Crossfire?

I would not 100% support this. It’s Empyrion in general.
After discussions with Eleon they also changed it on their steam webstore already as minimum requirement:

Can’t recommend what new graphic card you should go for.
I have a GTX 1070 myself and all is good.

BUT if you playing Empyrion hardcore like I am, I strongly recommend to set your max. frame rate to 30.
Playing at 60+ FPS looks good but brings your GPU non stop at 70+ °C.
I lost already 2 Graphic cards due Empyrion :grimacing:

Good luck!

Thank you again on your advice.

I’ll try do more research on GPU out there, I had been look do this for planning for near future upgrade.

Have fun :slight_smile:

My Sapphire Radeon R9 270 died a few days ago, the Arkham Knight killed it, and now i am playing on a AMD Radeon HD 5570 (low profile) from my HTPC. It works, not good, but i can still move around. Another bottleneck is my CPU, so i assume i need this right after a new GPU.

1050Ti working great for over 3yrs now
