Guys please forgive me as though I do not want to go off topic again nor do I want to spark any dispute between forum members with regards to AMD or NVIDIA....
As you may know I recently purchased a Sapphire RX560 4GB DDR5 GPU and whilst the card is working absolutely fine, today I found out that the card had no warranty as I contacted Sapphire directly with the S/N from the card. The seller on eBay advised me this was because he had't registered the card as yet and assured me that he would do this and provied me 3 yrs warranty.. I wasn't really happy with this as Sapphire themselves advised me that the warranty had expired on 21/01/2018..
In the end I arranged to return the card back to the seller for a full refund of £165.00 . I was going to buy a Gigabyte RX560 4GB card when I spoke to the sales rep from Scan.co.uk who reccomended the EVGA 1050ti 4GB SSC ACX3.0. Whilst I agree the specs seem much better on this card , there are 2 x questions I wanted to ask before ordering this card and hope you guys could help me:
1 - Does this card support HDCP 2.2
2 - I read that Nvidia cards need special software in order to play 3D movies or files.. In Kodi would I be able to play 3D iso or 3D movies as I have been with the AMD cards? Does the Nvidia card support 3D311?
Thank you and sorry if these questions are obvious but I have no experience with the NVIDIA platform.
